For an ideal gas the instantaneous change in pressure 'p' with volume 'v' is given by the equation dp/dv = -ap. If p = p0 at v = 0 is the given boundary condition, then the maximum temperature one mole of gas can attain is: (Here R is the gas constant)

(1) \(\frac{p_0}{aeR}\)

(2) \(\frac{ap_0}{eR}\)

(3) Infinity

(4) 0°C

Correct answer: (1) \(\frac{p_0}{aeR}\)

Explanation:

\(\int_{p_0}^p \frac{dp}{P}\) = \(-a \int_0^v dv\)

ℓn\(\Big(\frac{p}{p_0}\Big)\) = -av

p = p0e-av

For temperature maximum p-v product should be maximum

T = \(\frac{pv}{nR}\) = \(\frac{p_0 ve^{-av}}{R}\)

\(\frac{dT}{dv}\) = 0 ⇒ \(\frac{p_0}{R}\){e-av + ve-av(-a)}

\(\frac{p_0e^{-av}}{R}\){1 - av} = 0

v = \(\frac{1}{a}\), ∞

T = \(\frac{p_01}{Rae}\) = \(\frac{p_0}{Rae}\)

at v = ∞

T = 0
