The average force applied on the wall of a closed container depends as $\mathrm{T}^{\mathrm{X}}$ where T is the temperature of an ideal gas. The value of $x$ is

  • A
    0.5
  • Correct answer
    B
    1
  • C
    2
  • D
    1.5

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & P=\frac{F}{A} \\ \therefore \quad & P \propto F...(i) \end{aligned}$
From ideal gas equation, $\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{nRT}}{\mathrm{~V}}$
When V remains constant, $P \propto T...(ii)$
From (i) and (ii) $\begin{aligned} & F \propto \mathrm{~T}^{\mathrm{x}} \\ \therefore \quad & \mathrm{x}=1 \end{aligned}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
