What is the correlation between pressure and elevation for an ideal gas?

Explanation:

Expression for vertical fluid pressure is as follows.

               \frac{dP}{dh} = \rho \times g ........... (1)

where,     p = pressure

            \rho = density

               g = acceleration due to gravity

               h = height

Since, g is negative then it means that an increase in height will lead to decrease in pressure.

Also, expression for density according to ideal gas law is as follows.

                 \rho = \frac{mP}{kT} .......... (2)

where,         m = average mass or air molecule

                    P = pressure at a given point

                    k = Boltzmann constant

                    T = temperature in kelvin

Substituting values from equation (2) into equation (1) as follows.

              \frac{dP}{dh} = \rho \times g

              \frac{dP}{dh} = \frac{mP}{kT} \times g

               \frac{dP}{P} =  \frac{mg}{kT}dh

Now, on applying integration on both the sides we get the following.

                    ln\frac{P_{h}}{P^{o}} = \frac{-mgh}{kT}

or,                          P_{h} = P_{o}e^{\frac{-mgh}{kT}}                    

where,           P_{h} = pressure at height h

                      P_{o} = pressure at reference point    

Thus, we can conclude that the correlation between pressure and elevation for an ideal gas is  P_{h} = P_{o}e^{\frac{-mgh}{kT}}.

A gas has an initial volume of 455 mL at 105ºC and a final volume of 235 mL. What is its final temperature in Celsius degrees?
Oksana_A [137]
Hello!

To solve this problem we're going to use the Charles' Law. This Law describes the relationship between Volume and Temperature in an ideal gas. Applying this law we have the following equation:

\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2} \\  \\ T2= \frac{V2*T1}{V1}=  \frac{235 mL * 105  ^{\circ}C }{455 mL}=54,23 ^{\circ}C

So, the final temperature is 54,23 °C

Have a nice day!

dimaraw [331]
The answer is (4) synthesis. Synthesis reaction means that two or more reactants combine directly to one production. Substitution or single replacement means that one element of a compound is replaced by another element. Double replacement means that two ionic reactants exchange ions to form two new productions.
