Question 21

Gas Laws

The equation PxVyTz = constant is Charles' law when

  1. A.x = 1, y = −1, z = 1
  2. B.x = 0, y = 1, z = −1
  3. C.x = 1, y = 0, z = −1
  4. D.x = 0, y = 1, z = 1
Show the answer and explanation

Answer: B (x = 0, y = 1, z = −1)

Explanation

Charles' law (pressure constant) says V/T = constant, i.e. P0V1T−1 = constant.
