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.
Raising temperature of a gas fixed volume container will change?
it would change the pressure exerted by the gas in the container.
What will increase the volume of gas?
change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas
Which change results in an increase in gas pressure in a sealed and flexible container?
increase in volume
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 2 things can make the pressure of gas rise?
1) Increase in heat 2)Decrease in volume
How do you increase the volume of gas?
To increase the volume of a gas * reduce the pressure, or * increase the temperature, or * add more gas
How does the decreasing the gas volume affect the pressure of a gas?
The pressure increase.
What effect does an increase in temperature have on a gas's volume and pressure?
As indicated by the Ideal Gas Laws, increasing temperature will tend to increase both volume and pressure. Of course, volume can't always increase, that depends upon the flexibility or inflexibility of the container that the gas is in, and if the volume does increase that will counteract the increase in pressure that would otherwise have happened. Temperature, pressure, and volume are all interconnected in a gas.
When does raising the temperature of gas increase its pressure?
Increasing the temperature of a gas will increase it's pressure ONLY if the volume is held constant.
What effect does an increase in temperature have on a gas?
If possible, the gas will increase in volume. If it is unable to increase in volume for some reason, it will increase in pressure.
Would the volume of a gas increase or decrease if the pressure on the gas increases?
According to the combined gas law, volume and pressure are indirectly related. Therefore, if the pressure of a gas increases, the volume will decrease.
