Can we use Boyle's law to calculate the volume of a real gas from its initial state to final state during adiabatic expansion?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether we can use Boyle's law to calculate the volume of a real gas during adiabatic expansion, we need to analyze the conditions of both Boyle's law and adiabatic processes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Boyle's Law**: - Boyle's law states that for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure (P) of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume (V). Mathematically, this is expressed as: \[ PV = k \quad (k \text{ is a constant}) ...

When a sample of ideal gas is changed from an initial state to a final state, various curves can be plotted for the process like P-V curve, V-T curve,P-T curve etc. For example, P-V curve for a fixed amount of an ideal gas at constant temperature is a rectangular hyperbola, V-T curve for a fixed amount of an ideal gas at constant volume is again a straight line. However, the shapes may vary if the constant parameters are also changed. Now, answer the following questions : Two moles of an ideal gas is changed from its initial state (16 atm, 6L) to final state (4 atm, 15L) in such a way that this change can be represented by a straight line in P-V curve.The maximum temperature attained by the gas during the above change is :(Take : R=1/12L atm K^(-1) "mol"^(-1) )
