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}}.
