Which of the following statements about the ideal gas law,PV = nRT,is NOT true?
A)When the temperature of two low density gases,which are initially at the same temperature,pressure and volume,is increased by the same amount,the volume increases by the same amount.
B)When the volume of two low density gases,which are initially at the same temperature,pressure and volume,is compressed by the same amount,the temperature increases by the same amount.
C)A P-T plot of any gas at low density intercept the T-axis at the same point.
D)The intercept at the ordinate for PV/nT vs P plot of any gas is the gas constant.
E)The ideal gas law is valid for high density of all gases.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ideal gas law is not valid for high density gases because at high densities, the intermolecular forces between gas molecules become significant and the gas behaves less like an ideal gas. Therefore, statement E is not true.
