Using the equation of state pV=nRT, show that at a given temperature density of a gas is proportional to gas pressure p.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`pV=nRT`
`p=W/(mV)RT=(rhoRT)/m`
where `W` is the mass of gas in gram, `m` is its molecular mass, and `rho` its density.
Hence density `(rho)` of a gas `prop P` because `R, T` and `m` are constant.

Using the equation of state pV=nRT , show that at a given temperature the density of gas is proportional to gas pressure p .

According to the kinetic theory of gases, the pressure of a gas is expressed as P = ( 1)/( 3) rho bar(c )^(2) where rho is the density of the gas, bar(c )^(2) is the mean square speed of gas molecules. Using this relation show that the mean kinetic energy of a gas molecule is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
