When gas in a container expand to twice its volume at constant temperature the gas pressure does what?
The pressure increases. Hopefully, the container is strong enough to withstand the increased pressure. If there is a weakness in the container, gas will escape as a leak.
When the temperature of a gas increases does the volume of the gas increase in a rigid steel container?
No, because the gas is in a rigid steel container, its volume cannot increase as the temperature increases (assuming the steel does not deform). Instead, the pressure of the gas inside the container will increase. Of course, if the pressure is high enough, the container will explode, lowering the pressure and causing the gas to expand.
What will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed containe?
A reduction in the temperature of the container.
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.
How the temperature of gas is increased and decreased?
When the speed of a gas molecules increases, the gas molecules hit their container more often. The more frequently the gas impacts the container walls, the higher the pressure. So, as temperature increases, the pressure also increases.
A tire has pressure of 325 kpa at 10c if the temperature of the tire rises to 50c and the volume remains constantwhat is new pressure?
370.8 kPa.
What happens to pressure in a container while the temperature rises?
Answer The pressure increases when the temperature rises.
What would cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container?
Lowering the temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container.
Raising temperature of a gas fixed volume container will change?
it would change the pressure exerted by the gas in the container.
Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in a close the rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase?
If temperature increases, either the volume or the pressure must increase. Since you have limited the volume by closing the container, pressure must increase.
Would increase the pressure of a gas in a container?
The temperature
What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in closed container?
Lowering the temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container.
What is the pressure inside of a container when nitrogen gas is added?
The pressure inside of a container when nitrogen gas is added depends on:what the pressure was before the gas was addedhow big the container ishow much nitrogen gas is addedthe temperature of the gas before it is addedthe temperature of the container and its contents
What happens to the pressure of a gas inside a rigid container if the temperature of the gas temperature of the gas decreases?
Cooling a pressurized container will cause the internal pressure to decrease.This works in reverse too. Depressurizing a pressurized container will lower the internal temperature (and by conduction, the temperature of the container itself). This is why ice often forms around propane gas cylinders after extended use.
Why an elevated temperature increases the pressure exerted to the inside of container?
In a closed system the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature (Gay-Lussac law).At higher temperature the volume tend to increase but in a container the volume is limited.
According to if you decrease the volume of a container of gas the pressure of the gas will increase provided the temperature does not change?
Boyle's Law
