Gas Laws

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and pressure in a gas according to Gay Lussac's Law?

Back

As temperature increases, pressure increases.

Front

What happens to the volume of a gas when the temperature decreases?

Back

The volume of the gas decreases.

Front

What are the three measurable properties of gases?

Back

Pressure, Volume, and Temperature.

Front

What effect does increasing the volume of a gas have on its pressure?

Back

The pressure decreases.

Front

What happens to the pressure of a gas when it is heated in a closed container?

Back

The pressure will increase.

Front

Define Boyle's Law.

Back

At constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

Front

What is Charles's Law?

Back

At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

Front

What is the ideal gas law equation?

Back

PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is moles, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature.

How does increasing the number of gas particles in a container affect the pressure?

Back

The pressure increases.

Front

What is the effect of decreasing the volume of a gas on its pressure?

Back

The pressure increases.
