Agraph of gas pressure versus the number of particles in a container is a straight line. Which other relationship will

have a similar graph?
O volume versus pressure, because they are also directly proportional
O volume versus temperature, because they are also directly proportional
volume versus pressure, because they are also inversely proportional
volume versus temperature, because they are also inversely proportional

Answer:

Volume versus temperature, because they are also directly proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ideal Gas Equation is :

  • PV = nRT

Evaluating the options

  • V ∝ P [Incorrect, because V ∝ 1/P, and graph will be a parabola]
  • V ∝ T [Correct, because V ∝ T, and graph is a straight line]
  • V ∝ 1/P [Incorrect, because graph is not similar]
  • V ∝ 1/T [Incorrect, because V ∝ T]
