Gas Laws

According to Boyle's law of PV, at constant temperature, as the pressure of a given sample of gas is increased, the volume will –

• Increase
• Decrease
• Remains the same

Which of the following would increase the (gas) pressure of a system?

• Increase the Temperature
• Pump in more gas
• Decrease the volume
• All of these

A gas of volume V is place in a balloon. The pressure is reduced to 1/5 of the original pressure. The volume will be _____ what it was originally.  

• the same as 
• 1/5
• 9 times
• 5 times

When the temperature of matter increases the particles...

• speed up and move closer
• speed up and move farther apart
• slow down and move closer together
• slow down and move farther apart

When Volume increases then Pressure must...

• Increase
• Decrease
