Which one of the following is the correct PV vs P plot at constant temperature for an ideal gas? ( P and V stand for pressure and volume of the gas respectively)
  1. (A)(see graph)
    ✓ Correct
  2. (B)(see graph)
  3. (C)(see graph)
  4. (D)(see graph)

Answer: (A)

Solution

At constant temperature an ideal gas obeys , a constant that is independent of the pressure. A plot of against is therefore a straight line parallel to the pressure axis. The correct graph is a horizontal line of constant .
