For a closed (not rigid ) container containing n=10n = 10 moles of an ideal gas fitted with a movable, frictionless, weightless piston operating such that pressure of gas remains constant at 0.821atm0.821atm.Which graph represents a correct variation of log V vs log T where V is in litre and T in Kelvin?
A)

B)

C)

D)

Explanation

Solution

We know that the ideal gas law is the condition of a speculative ideal gas. It is a decent estimation of the conduct of numerous gases under numerous conditions, despite the fact that it has a few impediments
The ideal gas equation is,
PV=nRTPV = nRT
Where P is the pressure in the atmosphere.
V is the volume of gas in a liter.
n is the number of moles.
R is a universal gas constant.
T is the temperature.

Complete step by step answer:
Given,
The number of moles n=10n = 10.
The pressure of gas is 0.821atm0.821atm.
The value of gas constant is 0.0821Latmmol1K10.0821Latmmo{l^{ - 1}}{K^{ - 1}}.
We know the ideal gas equation is,
PV=nRTPV = nRT
Now, substitute the known qualities in the above condition,
V=10×0.0821×T0.821V = \dfrac{{10 \times 0.0821 \times T}}{{0.821}}
V=1×TV = 1 \times T
logVlogT=1\dfrac{{\log V}}{{\log T}} = 1
tanθ=1\tan \theta = 1
tan45=1\tan {45^ \circ } = 1
Hence option A is correct.

Additional information:
If the gas obeys an ideal gas equation then the pressure is given by,
P = nRTV1{\text{P = }}\dfrac{{{\text{nRT}}}}{{\text{V}}} \to 1
If the volume is doubled and the temperature is halved then the equation becomes,
P = nRT/22V{\text{P = }}\dfrac{{{\text{nRT/2}}}}{{{\text{2V}}}}
P = nRT4V2{\text{P = }}\dfrac{{{\text{nRT}}}}{{{\text{4V}}}} \to 2
From equation 1 P = nRTV{\text{P = }}\dfrac{{{\text{nRT}}}}{{\text{V}}} then the equation 2 becomes,
P = P4{\text{P = }}\dfrac{{\text{P}}}{{\text{4}}}
Thus, if the volume is doubled and the temperature is halved then the pressure of the system decreases by four times.

Note:
We know that,
Density = massvolume{\text{Density}}{\text{ = }}\dfrac{{{\text{mass}}}}{{{\text{volume}}}}
Assuming mass is equal to the number of moles in ideal gas.
Density = nvolume{\text{Density = }}\dfrac{{\text{n}}}{{{\text{volume}}}}
The ideal gas equation is,
PV = nRT{\text{PV = nRT}}
The number of moles can be calculated as,
n = PVRT{\text{n = }}\dfrac{{{\text{PV}}}}{{{\text{RT}}}}
Substituting the value of n in density equation,
Density = PRT{\text{Density = }}\dfrac{{P\not V}}{{RT\not V}}
Density = PRT{\text{Density = }}\dfrac{{\text{P}}}{{{\text{RT}}}}
Density1T{\text{Density}} \propto \dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{T}}}
It is clear that density is inversely proportional to temperature. Thus, as the density of the gas decreases temperature increases.
