CONCEPT:

  • Ideal gas law is obeyed by all hypothetical ideal gases but presents a good approximation of the behavior of many real gases as well.
  • It states that the product of pressure P and volume V of an ideal gas is proportional to its temperature T.

EXPLANATION:

  • The law includes all the kinds of processes and changes the gas may undergo and is therefore valid for both isothermal and adiabatic changes. Therefore, option 3 is correct. 

Additional Information

Isothermal process Adiabatic process
For an isothermal process, the temperature of a gas is maintained constant by exchanging heat with the surrounding. The temperature of the gas is a variable for an adiabatic process and no heat is exchanged with the surrounding.
