The pressure and temperature ( relationship of an ideal gas obeys the equation constant. The volume expansion coefficient of the gas will be :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
- Use the ideal gas equation
For an ideal gas, where is constant for a fixed amount of gas.
- Given relation between pressure and temperature
The problem states: So,
Let for some constant .
- Find how volume depends on temperature
From the ideal gas law, Substitute : Hence,
- Volume expansion coefficient
The coefficient of volume expansion is defined as
Since for some constant , we get Therefore,
- Match with the options
Thus, the volume expansion coefficient is So the correct option is D.
