Question

Charles’s law states that if the pressure of a dry gas is held constant, then the volume V of the gas and its temperature T, measured in degrees Kelvin, satisfy the relationship V=cT, where c is a constant. Which of the following best describes the relationship between the rate of change, with respect to time t, of the volume and the rate of change, with respect to time t, of the temperature?
a) dV/dt = T dc/dt
b) dV/dt = c * dT/dt
c) dV/dT = c
d) 1 = c * dT/dV

Answer 1

Answer:

  b) dV/dt = c * dT/dt

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiating the equation with respect to time, you have ...

  V = cT

  dV/dt = c·dT/dt . . . . matches choice B
