Question

Consider the following graph.The data for the graph was obtained at constant temperature.  Which of the following correctly describes the relationship shown on the graph?
(i)V $\infty$ P
(ii)V $\infty$ 1/P
(iii)V = kP
(iv)V = k(1/P)

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The graph shows an inverse relationship between V and P, meaning that as pressure (P) increases, the volume (V) decreases. This is represented by the equation V = k(1/P), which is choice (iv). Therefore, (iv) is the correct choice. However, (ii) is also a valid choice since it represents the same inverse relationship in a different form. Therefore, the best choice is E, which includes both (ii) and (iv). Choices (i) and (iii) do not accurately describe the relationship shown on the graph.
