Deduce Boyle's law based on kinetic theory.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Boy.s law : From `PV=2/3U`
But the internal energy of an ideal gas is equal to N times the average kinetic energy `(epsilon)` of each molecule. `U= Nespilon`. For a fixed temperature, the average translational kinetic energy `espi` will remain constant. It implies that
`PV = 2/3Nepsilon`
Thus PV = constant Therefore, pressure of a given gas is inversely proportional to its volume provided the temperature remains constant. This is Boyle.s law.
