उत्तर १

  1. At constant temperature, a gas's average kinetic energy per molecule remains constant.
  2. When a gas's volume is lowered at a constant temperature, the number of gas molecules colliding with the container's walls per unit time increases.
  3. The momentum transferred per unit time per unit area, i.e. the force exerted by the gas on the walls, increases as a result.
  4. As a result, the gas pressure rises.

Let P - be the pressure exerted by the gas

V - be the volume of the gas

N - be the number of molecule of gas

m - be the mass of each molecule of gas.

∴ Total mass of the gas, M = Nm.

From kinetic theory of gases,

`P = (1/3) (Nm)/V barv^2`

∴ Pressure exerted by gas in an enclosed vessel is

`P = 2/3 N/V (1/2mbarv^2)`

But `1/2mbarv^2` = (Kinetic energy at constant temperature)

N is number which is also constant.

∴ `P = "Constant"/V`

∴ `P ∝ 1/V`

As a result, at constant temperature, increasing the pressure of the gas reduces its volume.
