Question

The equation \( PV = nRT \) is best obeyed by gases at

• A. Low pressure and high temperature
• B. High pressure and low temperature
• C. Low pressure and low temperature
• D. High pressure and high temperature

Hint:

For ideal gas behavior, reduce pressure and increase temperature.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Ideal gas law \( PV = nRT \) is most accurate when intermolecular forces are negligible.
This condition is satisfied at low pressures and high temperatures where gases behave ideally.
