Deduce Boyle's law based on kinetic theory.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that,
`PV = 2/3 U`
But the internal energy of an ideal gas is equal to N times the average kinetic energy `(in)` of each molecule.
`U = Nin `
For a fixed temperature , the average translational kinetic energy `in` will remain constant . It implies that,
`PV = 2/3 N in `
Thus, PV = constant
