An experiment is carried on a fixed amount of gas at different temperature and at high pressure such that it deviates from the ideal gas behaviour. The variation of p V R T with p is shown in the diagram. The correct variation will correspond to
Options
- ACurve A
- BCurve B
- CCurve C
- DCurve D
Correct answer
B. Curve B
Step-by-step solution
At lower pressure, we can assume that given gas behaves as ideal gas so p V R T = constant but when pressure increase, the decrease in volume will not take place in same proportion so p V R T will increases.
