Gay-Lussac's law (or Amonton's law) states that at constant volume, the pressure of a fixed amount of a gas changes by …… of its pressure at `0^(@)C` for every `1^(@)` change in temperature.

A

`1//273`

B

`1//373`

C

`1//173`

D

`1//573`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The law which governs the relationship between the pressure and temperature of a fixed amount of a gas at constant volume mathematically as
`p = p_(0) + (p_(0))/(273) t = p_(0) (1 + (t)/(273)) = p_(0)((273 + t)/(273))`
where `p` is the pressure of the gas at `t^(@)C` and `p_(0)` is the pressure of the gas at `0^(@)C`. More accurately , the fractional change is `1//273.15`.
