How does Boyles law describe the relationship between gas pressure and volume?
"When the pressure of a gas at constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. When the pressure is decreased, the volume increases." More precisely, pressure is inversely proportional to volume.
What variables are present in boyles's law?
Boyle's law states that the absolute pressure and volume of a gas (if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system) is inversely proportional. If one doubles, the other is halved. So if we alter pressure, the volume changes. Therefore your variables are V and P. Volume and pressure
How are pressure and volume related in boyles law?
Boyle found that when the pressure of a gas at constant temperature is increased the volume of a gas decreases. P x V is a constant at constant Temperature Boyle's Law: P1V1 = P2V2
Which of the gas laws is an indirect relationship?
Boyle's Law. This law says that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related. In other words, as the pressure of a gas goes up, the volume goes down and vice versa.
An increase in results in an increase in an increase pressure.?
Temperature!~ ^^
What happens to volume if pressure remains the same and temperature goes up?
Volume increases! If pressure is kept constant then temperature and volume are directly related to each other.(Charle's law). It states that:V1/T1 = V2/T2
How are pressure and volume related according to Boyle's law?
When the pressure of a gas is increased, the volume of the gas is decreased. When the pressure of the gas is decreased, the volume increases
Is pressure directly or inversely related to volume?
Pressure is usually inversly proportional to volume, but proportional to temperature. All other things being equal, higher temperatures result in higher pressure, wheras higher volumes result in lower pressure.
What are specific variables for Charles and Boyles laws?
1. A more correct name is Boyle-Mariotte law, because Mariotte discovered this lawafter Boyle but indepedently.. 2. This law is a relation between pressure and volume at constant temperature. The equation is: pV = k where p is the pressure (variable), V is the volume (variable) , k is a constant specific for the system.
Charles law states that?
that the temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume at constant pressure. In other words, if you increase the temperature of a gas, its volume will also increase.
Why does air pressure decreases when volume increases?
Air pressure is the weight of all the air above you. The higher you go, the more air is below you.
How does change in pressure affect the volume of a gas?
The pressure and volume are inversely proportional. If you double one, the other will be reduced by 1/2 (as long as the temperature is constant). Boyles law states: P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2 In English that means, pressure times volume divided by temperature in the first "state" will equal to pressure times volume divided by temperature in the second state. Temperatures are all converted to degrees kelvin. So, calculate the pressure, temperature and volume of a quantity of a gas, change one of the variables of that quantity of gas for the second state and the other values will change to maintain equality.
