An ideal gas undergoes a thermodynamic process described by the equation: , where is a constant. The gas transitions from an initial state to a final state . Which of the following statements is correct?
If , then
If , then
If , then
If , then
For an ideal gas, the ideal gas equation is given by , which implies . Substituting this into the given process equation : . This relation shows that temperature is inversely proportional to volume (). Therefore, if , it must be that . Furthermore, since , if , then , which in turn means . Thus, the only correct statement is 'If , then '.
