Correct answer: C

The question asks which graph represents the behavior of an ideal gas, but the actual graphs for options A, B, C, and D are not visible in the prompt.

For an ideal gas, the governing relation is PV=nRTPV=nRTPV=nRT so the correct graph depends entirely on which quantities are plotted and what is being held constant.

Step 1: Standard graphical behaviors of an ideal gas

Some common correct ideal-gas graphs are:

  1. At constant temperature: P∝1VP \propto \frac{1}{V}P∝V1​ So the PPP vs VVV graph is a rectangular hyperbola.

  2. At constant volume: P∝TP \propto TP∝T So the PPP vs TTT graph is a straight line passing through the origin, provided temperature is in kelvin.

  3. At constant pressure: V∝TV \propto TV∝T So the VVV vs TTT graph is a straight line through the origin, again for temperature in kelvin.

  4. If temperature is plotted in degree Celsius instead of kelvin, the line does not pass through the origin.

Step 2: Limitation in the given prompt

Since the option graphs are missing, it is impossible to independently derive whether A, B, C, or D is correct from the provided information alone.

Step 3: Comparison with stored answer

The stored correct answer is C. Because the actual graph labeled C is not shown, I cannot verify it from first principles here.

So, strictly speaking, the problem is incomplete in the text provided. However, if I must compare with the stored answer, I can only tentatively accept C based on the supplied key, not on graphical analysis.
