Question

Under conditions of constant temperature and amount of substance, a plot of pressure VS. volume for an ideal gas will result in:__________.
a) a line
b) a parabola
c) a logarithmic function
d) none of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

d) none of the above

Explanation:

The law that describes the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas (under constant temperature and amount of substance) is Boyle's law.

It states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. This would mean that a graph of P vs 1/V would be a line.

See the attached picture for a graph of P vs V.
