The temperature of a gas at pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is $27^{\circ}C$. Keeping its volume constant,if its temperature is raised to $927^{\circ}C$,then its pressure will be (in $P$)

What is the value of the volume of an ideal gas at absolute zero temperature?

An ideal gas equation can be written as $P = \frac{\rho R T}{M_{0}}$,where $\rho$ and $M_{0}$ are respectively,

$A$ $20 \,cm$ long tube is closed at one end. It is held vertically,and its open end is dipped in water until only half of it is outside the water surface. Consequently,water rises in it by height $h$ as shown in the figure. The value of $h$ is closest to (assume that the temperature remains constant,$P_{\text{atm}} = 10^5 \,N/m^2$,density of water $\rho = 10^3 \,kg/m^3$,and acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \,m/s^2$): (in $,cm$)

$A$ gas is filled in a vessel at a pressure given by $P = (6.02 \times 10^{23})kT$,where $k$ is the Boltzmann constant and $T$ is the absolute temperature. The number of molecules per unit volume of the gas is:
