Kinetic Theory - Result Question 4

4. At $10^{\circ} C$ the value of the density of a fixed mass of an ideal gas divided by its pressure is $x$. At $110^{\circ} C$ this ratio is:

[2008]

(a) $x$

(b) $\frac{383}{283} x$

(c) $\frac{10}{110} x$

(d) $\frac{283}{383} x$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 4. (d)

Solution:

  1. (d) Let the mass of the gas be $m$.

At a fixed temperature and pressure, volume is fixed.

Density of the gas, $\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

Now $\frac{\rho}{P}=\frac{m}{PV}=\frac{m}{nRT}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{m}{nRT}=x$ (By question)

$\Rightarrow xT=$ constant $\Rightarrow x_1 T_1=x_2 T_2$

$\Rightarrow x_2 \Rightarrow \frac{x_1 T_1}{T_2}=\frac{283}{383} x \begin{cases} \text{ Given } & \\ T_1 & =283 K \\ T_2 & =383 K \end{cases} $
