Specific volume of an ideal gas is____________________?
Correct answer: B. The reciprocal of its density
- A. Equal to its density
- B. The reciprocal of its density
- C. Proportional to pressure
- D. None of these
Explanation
Specific volume is volume per unit mass, while density is mass per unit volume, so they are reciprocals: v = 1/ρ. This relation is general and is not limited to ideal gases.
