If a gas is cooled with its volume held constant, then itfollows from the ideal gas law

Chapter 13, Problem 57

(choose chapter or problem)

If a gas is cooled with its volume held constant, then it follows from the ideal gas law in physics that its pressure drops proportionally to the drop in temperature. The temperature that, in theory, corresponds to a pressure of zero is called absolute zero. Suppose that an experiment produces the following data for pressure \(P\) versus temperature \(T\) with the volume held constant:

                           

(a) Use a calculating utility to find the regression line of \(P\) as a function of \(T\) .

(b) Use a graphing utility to make a graph that shows the data points and the regression line.

(c) Use the regression line to estimate the value of absolute zero in degrees Celsius.
