Do volcanic eruption increase or decrease the temperature of the earth?

increase


Who determined that if you decrease the volume of a container of gas and hold the temperature constant the pressure of the gas will increase.?

Robert Boyle. As in Boyles Law.


Is it true that in a closed container increasing the temperature of a gas will decrease the force with which particles hit the walls of the container?

No. Raising the temperature of the particles will cause their velocity to increase, which in turn causes them to collide with each other/the container more often and with more force.


How does Temperature increase with compression?

Kinetic theory in chemistry describes the relationship between temperature, volume, and pressure; if you increase temperature, the pressure or volume will increase, if you decrease volume or increase pressure, temperature will increase. The theory examines the nature of an elastic gas with atoms or molecules moving around within a container colliding with each other and with the walls of the container; temperature is a measure of the collective average random kinetic energy, expressed both in mass and speed (rotation, translation, and vibration). It describes that as you compress the substance (decrease the volume), the density of its component molecules increases and the frequency with which they collide with the walls increases, hence the temperature (and/or pressure) goes up.


An increase in evaporation is caused by?

- an increase of the temperature - a decrease of the pressure

How does temperature affect the volume of substance?

An increase in temperature will cause an increase in volume, while a decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in volume.


As you get higher in the atmosphere does the temperature increase or decrease?

decrease


Does the temperature increase or decrease with altitude in the tropospere?

Decrease


Can the volume of air change?

Yes, the volume of any gas can shrink or expand to fit into its container. If you want to increase the volume of a gas, you can decrease pressure and/or increase the temperature of the gas.


How will a pressure increase affect a gaseous system?

According to Boyle's Law of Pressure-Volume Relationship, an increase in the pressure of a gas will decrease it's volume. And according to Charles's Law of Temperature-Pressure Relationship, an increase in pressure causes an increase in temperature.


Can people increase or decrease a planet temperature?

They can do both, but it is up to them to decrease usage of fuels in order to increase planet temperature.


Does temperature increase or decrease with altitude in the mesosphere?

The temperature in the troposphere and the mesosphere decrease with altitude.


What are two ways to increase the pressure of a gas in a closed container?

Temperature can increase pressure of gas in a container ,


Which of the following would increase the pressure of a gas?
