During an experiment,an ideal gas is found to obey a condition $\frac{P^2}{\rho} = \text{constant}$ [$\rho = \text{density of the gas}$]. The gas is initially at temperature $T$,pressure $P$,and density $\rho$. The gas expands such that density changes to $\rho/2$.

  • A
    The pressure of the gas changes to $\sqrt{2} P$.
  • B
    The temperature of the gas changes to $\sqrt{2} T$.
  • C
    The graph of the above process on the $P-T$ diagram is a hyperbola.
  • D
    Both $(B)$ and $(C)$.

Which scientists contributed to the kinetic theory of gases?

An ideal gas is placed in a tank at $27^{\circ} C$. The pressure is initially $600 \ kPa$. One fourth of the gas is then released from the tank and thermal equilibrium is established. What will be the pressure if the temperature is $327^{\circ} C$ (in $kPa$)?

Read the given statements and decide which is/are correct on the basis of the kinetic theory of gases:
$(I)$ Energy of one molecule at absolute temperature $T = 0 \ K$ is zero.
$(II)$ $r.m.s.$ speeds of different gases are the same at the same temperature.
$(III)$ For one gram of all ideal gases,kinetic energy is the same at the same temperature.
$(IV)$ For one mole of all ideal gases,mean kinetic energy is the same at the same temperature.

Two closed containers of equal volume are filled with air at pressure $P_0$ and temperature $T_0$. Both are connected by a narrow tube. If one of the containers is maintained at temperature $T_0$ and the other at temperature $T$,then the new pressure in the containers will be:

At a temperature of $300 \ K$,the average translational kinetic energy and $rms$ speed of a sample of oxygen gas are $6.21 \times 10^{-21} \ J$ and $484 \ m/s$ respectively. At $600 \ K$,these values will be respectively: (Assume ideal gas behavior)
