What are factors that affect gas pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
What will increase the volume of gas?
change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas
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.
What 3 factors affect the pressure of a gas in a closed container?
The mass of the gass, the volume of the container holding the gas, and the temperature of the gass. If you have a container of gas, the greater the mass of the gas, the more molecules there are in the container, and this leads to greater pressure. If you have a fixed mass of gas, changing the volume of the container holding the gas will cause the pressure to change. Increasing the volume of the container decreases the pressure. Decreasing the volume of the container increases the pressure. If you increase the temperature of a gas without changing its mass or volume, pressure increases.
What is the relationship of volume to the temperature of a gas?
the relationship of gas volume and gas temperature is found in charels law
How does the change in temperature affect the volume of gas?
As the temperature of a gas increases, so does the volume.
How does volume affect temperature?
Normally there is no affect. In a gas, a CHANGE of volume of a single body, will give a change in temperature. If a gas is compressed the temperature will increase. If a gas is allowed to expand, there will be a reduction in temperature. This principle is used in diesel engines, to ignite the fuel by compression and fridges, where an expansion of gas causes cooling.
What could you do to change volume of a gas?
Change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas.
What are factors that affect gas pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
How does increasing the temperature of a gas within a gas tank affect its volume?
It affects pressure, not volume.
If the temperature and volume of a gas changes what else will change?
Volume ChangesThe volume of any solid, liquid, or gas will change with changes in temperature.
Does changing the temperature of a gas has no effect on the volume of the gas?
No, it does affect the volume of a gas according to the ideal gas law (PV=nRT).
When scientists record the volume on a gas why do they also record the temperature and the pressure?
because the volume of the gas is dependent upon the temperature and pressure. This is also important in the identification of the molecular mass of an unknown gaseous element.
Why does gas have a variable volume?
That's because they are quite easily compressible. There are no forces holding the gas particles together. (apex)
How does temperature affect the volume of a solid liquid and gas?
the higher the temperature, the higher the volume of a solid - michelle strafer
How does reducing the volume of a gas affect its pressure if the temperature of a gas and the number of particles are constant?
At a constant temperature, the volume and the pressure are inversely proportional, that it, the greater the volume, the lesser the pressure on the gas, and viceversa.
If you increase the temperature of an object does it affect the volume?
Yes, it does affect the volume. The relationship between them can be explained by the equation pV=nRT (pressure x volume = number of moles of gas x molar gas constant x temperature). Therefore, there is a direct proportionality between temperature and volume. If the temperature doubles, so does the volume.
