Three lines at different values of constant pressure are given, which of the following relation is correct ?
a) P1=P2=P3
b)P1>P2>P3
c)P3>P2>P1
d)Cannot be predicted
The answer should be b) P1>P2>P3
The graph is plotted between T and V/T. The value for T is same for all the three gases while the ratio of V/T is different. We know that
P is inversely proportional to V and directly proportional to T
So, greater the value of V/T less is the value of P
Therefore, P1>P2>P3
