Question:medium

The isobars of one mole of an ideal gas were obtained at three different pressures $(p_1, p_2$ and $p_3)$. The slopes of these isobars are $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ respectively. If $p_1<p_2<p_3$, then the correct relation of the slopes is

Show Hint

For an ideal gas, an isobar is a graph of Volume (V) vs. Temperature (T) at constant pressure (P). The graph is a straight line through the origin ($V = (R/P)T$), and the slope is $R/P$. Remember that the slope of this graph is inversely proportional to the pressure.

  • $m_1>m_2>m_3$
  • $m_1<m_2<m_3$
  • $m_1>m_3>m_2$
  • $m_1 = m_2 = m_3$
