How does temperature affect gas pressure at constant volume?

Back

According to Gay-Lussac's Law, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin) at constant volume. If temperature increases, pressure increases.

What happens to the volume of a gas when pressure increases at constant temperature?

Back

According to Boyle's Law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature. If pressure increases, volume decreases.

What is the value of the gas constant (R) in the Ideal Gas Law?

Back

The value of the gas constant (R) is approximately 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol) when using pressure in atmospheres and volume in liters.

Front

If a gas occupies 5.0 L at 1.0 atm and 300 K, what will be its volume at 2.0 atm and 400 K?

Back

The volume will be 3.0 L.

Front

If a gas has a pressure of 3 atm at 300 K, what will be its pressure at 450 K, assuming constant volume?

Back

The pressure will be 4.5 atm.

Front

What is the relationship between pressure and volume in a gas at constant temperature?

Back

The relationship is described by Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional at constant temperature.

Front

What does it mean for a gas to be 'ideal'?

Back

An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that perfectly follows the Ideal Gas Law under all conditions, with no interactions between molecules and occupying no volume.
