Out of the three stes of matter, only the gases have most of the physical properties common. They neither have definite shapes nor volumes. Upon mixing they form hoogeneous mixture irespective of their nature and can also be compressed on applying pressure. In addition to these, the gases obey different gas laws such as Noyle's Law, Charles's Law, Dalton's Law of partial pressures, Graham's Law of diffusion etc. Based upon these laws, ideal gas equation `PV = nRT` has been derived.
When the produce of pressure and volume is plotted against pressure for a given amount of a gas, the obtained is

Options

A. parallel to X-axis
B. parallel to Y-axis
C. linear with positive slope
D. linear with negative slope

Answer

A

Explanation

Plot of PV vs P is parallel to `X-`axis
