For this you would use Boyle's Law, P1V1 = P2V2. The first pressure and volume variables are before the change, while the second set are after the change. In this case, the volume is being changed and the pressure has to be solved for.

P1 = 1.00 ATM

V1 = 2.0 L

P2 = Unknown

V2 = 4.00 L

P1V1 = P2V2

1.00(2.0)=4.00P

P= .5 ATM

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

The volume increases.


What effect does raising the temperature of a gas have on its pressure if the volume of the gas and the number of particles are kept constant?

As per Charles' law pressure increases as temperature increases provided volume is kept constant


If a fixed sample of a gas increases in temperature at a constant pressure its volume does what?

Increases in direct proportion to the increase in temperature (on an absolute scale).


When the temperature is constant gas volume will decrease as the pressure decreases is that true?

If I remember correctly it is a little more complicated than that. The general equation PV=nRT for an ideal gas is elementary knowledge. The fact is that when you increase temperature many things can happen. It depends on how you treat your system. In general if you increase temperature in an open system the pressure will remain fairly constant, but the volume will increase. If it is a closed system in which the volume is not allowed to expand the pressure will increase with increased temperature. You also have to remember chemical properties also such as phase changes. Hope that rambling mess helps lol.


What is it called when the volume of a gas increases and the pressure decreases?

Charles' Law says that as pressure on a gas decreases, its volume increases. Charles' Law is an example of an inverse relationship.t It is not Charle's law It is Boyle's law Charles law states at constant volume, pressure is proportional to kelvin temperature And at constant pressure volume is proportional to kelvin temperature But Boyle's law states that at constant temperature pressure is inversely related to volume

If the temperature of a gas is decreased at a constant pressure what happens to its volume?

When the temperature of a gas is increased at a constant pressure, its volume increases. When the temperature of a gas is devreased at constnt pressure, its volume decreases.


When a temperature of a gas at a constant volume increases?

Pressure increases. yup


If temperature increase and volume remain constant what is pressure?

This is explained by Charle's law. Keeping volume constant, as the temperature increases then the pressure of the gas also increases.


When the temperature is constant will the the volume of a gas decrease as the pressure decreases?

At constant temperature p.V=constant, so pressure INcreases when decreasing the volume.

What is the effect on pressure when the temperature of a gas at constant volume is increased?

Universal Gas Law: P*V/T = a constant, where P = gas pressure [Pa], V = volume [m3], and T = gas temperature [K]. Therefore, when the gas temperature increases, the pressure increases linearly with it, when the volume is constant.


When the temperature of a gas is constant will the volume increase or decrease as the pressure decreases?

as the pressure decreases the volume of gas increases at constant temperature
