Boyle's - Charles' Laws

According to Boyle's law, as the pressure exerted on a gas is increased, the volume will _______.

• increase

• decrease

• remains the same

• be doubled

For a given sample of a gas, what must remain constant if Boyle's law is to be applied?

• pressure and volume

• pressure and temperature

• volume and amount of gas

• temperature and amount of gas

If the temperature remains constant while the volume of a given amount of gas is tripled, the pressure will be ______.

• 9 times the original pressure

• 3 times the original pressure

• 6 times the original pressure

• 1/3 of the original pressure

Assuming that the temperature remains constant. Following Boyle's Law, how can you increase the pressure of a gas?

• Decrease the container volume

• Add more molecules of the gas

• Increases the container volume

• Heat the container

To apply Charles' Law, which of the following needs to remain constant?

• pressure and volume

• temperature and the number amount of a gas

• pressure and the number of amount of a gas

• temperature and volume

At constant pressure, what happens to the volume of a gas when the absolute temperature doubles?

• It is quadrupled.

• It is doubled.

• It is halved.

• Is is tripled

Records show that the incident of tire explosion is high during summer season. Which of the following gives the best explanation for this observation?

• there are more travelers during summer vacation

• there is too much air inside the tires

• high temperature during summer season causes the air inside the tire to expand

• vehicles’ tires are not well maintained
