Question

One mole of an ideal gas undergoes a process in which T = T0 + aV3, where T0  and ′a′ are positive constants and V is volume. The volume for which pressure will be minimum is

Options

A.
B.
C.
D.

Solution

(A)
        T = T0 + aV3
⇒     = T0  + aV3
⇒     P = nR
For minimum P,  = O 
⇒     + a 2V = 0 ⇒ V =
