Chapter 5, Problem 4DQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Change in density of gas with increase in temperature of gas should be determined. Also, whether results are same with piston at constant pressure or not should be explained.

Concept introduction:State of any gas is determined by some of its parameters. These parameters are pressure, amount of gas, temperature and volume. Ideal gas law helps to govern state of gas with help of relationships between these gas parameters.

Expression for ideal gas equation is as follows:

  $PV=nRT$

Where,

• $P$ is pressure of gas.
• $V$ is volume of gas.
• $n$ is amount or moles of gas.
• $R$ is universal gas constant.
• $T$ is absolute temperature of gas.
