At which of the following four conditions, the density of an ideal gas will be maximum? — States of Matter and Gaseous State Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

Density d = PM/RT. For a given gas, density is ∝ P/T. Comparing options: (a) 1/273 = 0.0036, (b) 2/273 = 0.0073, (c) 1/546 = 0.0018, (d) 2/546 = 0.0036. The ratio is highest at 273 K and 2 atm.
