Question

which one of the following laws could not be used to produce the combined gas law? a. boyle's law b. charles' law c. watson's law d. gay-lussac's law

Answer 1

I believe the answer to this question is A boyle's law

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is Option c.

Explanation:

The equation for the combined ideal gas law is:

$PV=nRT$

This law has arrived from the combination of four laws:

1) Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$     (At constant temperature)

2) Charles' Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

$V\propto T$     (At constant pressure)

3) Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume.

$P\propto T$     (At constant volume)

4) Avogadro's Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas at constant pressure and temperature.

$V\propto n$   (At constant temperature and pressure)

From the above information, we get that the correct answer is Option c.
