This one is explained in Boyle's Law.

It was stated that if the temperature is constant, the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume.

Thus, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases. It is also the same as if the pressure decreases, the volume of the gas increases.

when the presure increases the volume of the gas decrease and gas molecules come close to each other ..... when the pressure decreases the volume increases and gas molecules farther apart

How the volume of a gas will change if the pressure on it is made less?

For a gas, pressure and volume are inversely related. If pressure decreases, volume will increase.


How does the pressure of a gas change when the volume of the gas increases?

The volume decreases


How does the pressure of a gas change if you increase volume?

If you increase the volume of the container, and not the gas itself, then the pressure decreases. If you increase the volume of the gas, and not the container, then the pressure increases.


At constant pressure how does the volume of 1 mole of an ideal gas vary?

The volume varies inversely with pressure.


What could you do to change volume of a gas?

Change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas.


When the number of gas particles at constant pressure increases how will the volume of the gas change?

If the space in which the gas is inside doesn't change, the volume of gas doesn't change


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.


What usually happens in general for a gas at a constant volume?

The gas volume become constant when the pressure is increased to a point that makes the distance between the gas molecules equal to zero at this point no more increase of temperature with pressure is observed. Or if the pressure and temperature are kept constant within a system then the volume can also be constant as long as you are able to maintain the pressure and temperature at constant level.


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.


When the number of gas particles at constant pressure increases how will the volume of the gas chang?

If the space in which the gas is inside doesn't change, the volume of gas doesn't change


Raising temperature of a gas fixed volume container will change?

it would change the pressure exerted by the gas in the container.


What can be done to change the volume of gas?

You can decrease the pressure. As pressure decreases, volume increases. and vice versa
