\( \left( \frac{\partial P}{\partial T} \right)_V \)
\( \left( \frac{\partial V}{\partial T} \right)_P \)
\( \left( \frac{\partial P}{\partial V} \right)_T \)
\( \left( \frac{\partial T}{\partial V} \right)_P \)
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is
B
Solution and Explanation
The isobaric volume expansivity \( \beta \) and isothermal compressibility \( \kappa \) are related as:
\[ \frac{\beta}{\kappa} = \left( \frac{\partial V}{\partial T} \right)_P \]
