For a gas, which pair of variables are inversely proportional to each other (if all other conditions remain constant)?
P, T
P, V
V, T
n, P
Under conditions of fixed temperature and an amount of gas, Boyle's law requires that:
I. P1V1 = P2V2
II. P1V1 = k
III. V2P1=V1P2
I only
I and II only
II and III only
I, II and III
A sample of oxygen occupies 47.2 liters under a pressure of 1240 Pa at 25oC. What volume would it occupy at 25oC if the pressure were decreased to 730 Pa?
27.8L
29.3L
80.2L
47.8L
A sample of nitrogen occupies 5.50 liters under a pressure of 900 Pa at 25oC. At what temperature will it occupy 10.0 liters at the same pressure?
49 0C
269 0C
-109 0C
54 0C

410.61 L
418.18 L
1255 L

If the pressure of a gas starts out at 200kPa and increases to 600kPa, what would the initial temperature be if it ended up at 300K?
50K
200K
400K
100K
When a cold tyre is inflated to a certain pressure and then is warmed up due to friction with the road, the pressure increases. This happens because the
air molecules hit the walls of the tire less frequently
rubber in the tires reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere
air molecules speed up and collide with the tire walls more often
air molecules diffuse rapidly through the walls of the tire.
Gas pressure is caused by
Molecules colliding with each other
Molecules condensing to a liquid
Molecules colliding with the walls of containers
Barometers
When you push down on a bike tyre, you feel resistance because
The kinetic energy of the particles increases so the temperature increases
The kinetic energy of the particles increases so the pressure increases
The volume has increased so the pressure increases
The volume has decreased so the pressure increases
At 20oC, the same volume of helium and hydrogen gas will have
the same average kinetic energy
the same kinetic energy for all particles
different kinetic energy as they weigh different amounts
different kinetic energy as the particles are different sizes
