Passage-II : A student uses a constant volume gas thermometer measures the triple point of water at 0.01°C to be 4.5 xx 10^(4) xx Nm^(-2) and the pressure at the boiling temperature of water at 100! to be 6 xx 10^(4) "Nm"^(-2). Using this information and assuming that the pressure varies linearly with temperature, answer the following questions. So as to observe the nature of the gas, the student performs measurements with thermometers having different gases. The student finds that: |
|
Answer» MEASUREMENTS are almost INDEPENDENT of the nature of the GAS, if the gas PRESSURE is low and the temperature is well above the temperature at which the gas liquefies. |
