Graph obtained when density/pressure is plotted against pressure for an idea gas at a fixed temperature?
From the formula pv=nRT, what is the shape of graph obtained when density/pressure is plotted against pressure? I rearranged the formula until this form http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/10/7/2...
But what is the shape of graph should be? Somebody please help be sketch it, thanks.
Answer:
The formula you have derived says it all. Remember that the underlying principle of the ideal gas equation is that for a given mass of a particular gas at constant temperature, PV = constant.
Therefore, assuming constant temperature, on the right-hand side of your derived equation you have molar mass (constant), R (constant) and T (constant). Therefore (M/RT) is constant, therefore density/pressure is constant.
Thus a graph of density/pressure plotted against pressure is a horizontal straight line (0 slope).
