Question

According to Boyle's Law PV=C the value of C depends on :

a) Mass of the gas

b) Type of gas

c) Temperature

• A. a,b
• B. b,c
• C. a,c
• D. a,b,c.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

a,c

The mathematical form of the Ideal Gas Law is:
PV = nRT and n = m/MW
Where:P - pressure
V - volume
n - number of moles
T - temperature
m - mass
MW - Molecular Weight
R - ideal gas constant
From this equation, we can conclude that C depends upon mass of the gas and its temperature
