Temperature in Constant volume gas thermometer.

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The constant volume gas thermometer utilizes the formula T (°C) = [P(T) - P(f)] × 100 / [P(b) - P(f)], where P(T) represents the gas pressure at temperature T, P(b) is the pressure at the boiling point of water, and P(f) is the pressure at the freezing point of water. This formula is confirmed as accurate for calculating temperature in this type of thermometer. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the relationship between gas pressure and temperature in thermodynamic measurements.

In the constant volume gas thermometer,
T (°c)=[P(T)-P(f)]×100/[P(b)-P(f)]
(P(T) means gas pressure at T°c
P(b) and P(f) for the water's boiling point and freezing point)
Is it right?
