One way to increase the solubility of a gas is to decrease the temperature of the liquid. The solubility of a gas in a liquid is usually temperature dependent, although it depends on the particular combination of which gas and which liquid. Usually the solubility of a gas goes down with increasing temperature (think of warm Carbonated Beverages going flat).

The other way to increase the solubility is to increase the pressure of the gas. The higher the pressure of the gas above the liquid, the more will dissolve. Again, think of a carbonated beverage: when it is sealed it doesn't go flat because it is under pressure, but when open to air, it will go flat.

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


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.


How the amount of gas affects its volume?

The volume increase when the amount of gas increase.


Increase the pressure of a gas by?

Both compressing and heating a gas will increase its pressure.


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.


What is the result of increasing the temp of a gas?

The kinetic energy will increase


What is the result of increase the volume of a gas?

more gas If you increase the volume without adding more gas, the pressure decreases.


How do you increase the pressure of gas?

To increase the pressure of a gas, you can either decrease the volume of the gas (Boyle's Law) or increase the temperature of the gas (Gay-Lussac's Law). Both methods will result in an increase in pressure due to the gas molecules being confined to a smaller space or moving faster and exerting more force on the container walls.


Which of the following will increase the volume of a gas?

Decreasing the pressure applied to the gas (apex)


In terms of kinetic molecular theory of gases how can increase in the temperature of a gas confined in a rigid container cause an increase in the pressure of gas?

An increase in temperature of a gas confined in a rigid container will cause an increase in the average kinetic energy of gas particles. This increase in kinetic energy leads to more frequent and forceful collisions between gas molecules and the walls of the container, resulting in an increase in pressure.


What three things can you do to increase the rate of dissolving a gas in a liquid?

Increase the amount of liquid Decrease the temperature of the liquid Increase the pressure of the gas


Does temperature of a gas increase or decrease under pressure?

When pressure on a gas increases, its temperature also increases. This relationship is described by the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), showing that an increase in pressure leads to an increase in temperature to maintain the same volume and number of moles of gas.
