- For an ideal gas, the enthalpy
A.
Increases with rise in pressure |
B.
Decreases with rise in pressure |
C.
Is independent of pressure |
D.
Is a path function |
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
The enthalpy of a substance is given by dH=CPdT+[V−T(∂V∂T)P]dP
For ideal gas T(∂V∂T)P=V
So, dH=CPdT
So, it is dependent on temperature only.
