State (i) Van’t Hoff-Boyles law (ii) Van’t Hoff Charles law
Solution
Hint: Both the laws given in question are derived and stated from the ideal gas equation. Boyle’s law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume you can imagine this law by taking a piston as an example. Charle’s law states that volume is directly proportional to temperature. Imagine an example of boiling water.
Complete step-by-step answer:
(i) Van’t Hoff-Boyle;s law:
Boyle's law states that at constant temperature the pressure exerted by a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to volume occupied by the gas.
PαV1,at constant temperature
PV=constant
Where,
P= pressure of a enclosed gas
V=volume of a enclosed gas
Boyle's law can be derived on the basis of kinetic theory of gases.
Consider a gas of volume V and N molecules, each of mass m.
Mass of gas M=Nm
According to kinetic theory of gases pressure exerted is given by
P=31ρCRMS2P=31VMCRMS2PV=311MCRMS2PV=32N(21mCRMS2)
The quantity 21mCRMS2. The average kinetic energy of gas molecules remains constant at constant temperature according to the assumption.
Therefore, PV=Constant
PαV1, and this is Boyle’s law.
(ii)Van’t Hoff Charle’s:
Charle’s law states that at a fixed pressure the volume is proportional to its absolute temperature.
I.e. PαT
TV=k=constant
Where k is the constant which depends on pressure of gas, the amount of gas and also the unit of volume.
If V1andT1 are the initial values of volume and temperature of a gas then, T1V1=k
Also, if the temperature is now changed to T2 such that the volume changes to V2
It can be written as
T2V2=k
Therefore we can write as,
