What happens to volume when pressure is doubled?
The pressure of a gas would be reduced by half if the volume of the container doubled, provided that no other change occurred. Pressure and volume are inversely proportional. The relationship between the two is known as Boyle's law. In brief, the volume of a gas changes inversely with the pressure of the gas if the temperature and quantity of gas remain constant.
What happens to the pressure as the volume changes?
Pressure will decrease with (because it is inversely proportianal to) volume, if (and only if!) temperature is held constant.
According to ideal gas eqation if pressure is double to initial pressure then what happens to the volume?
It would be half of the original volume. As you reduce the volume the pressure would increase and at half the original volume the pressure would be doubled.
What happens to pressure as altitude increased?
As altitude increases (i.e. when you get higher) pressure falls off inversely; a change near the higher reaches will not have as much of a pressure differential as the same distance change lower down.
What happens to pressure when the temperature and volume is halved?
if kelvin temp is halved, the volume is halved if pressure is constant.

What happens to the pressure of gas when the volume is doubled and no change in Kelvin temperature?
The pressure is decreased to 50 %.
What happens to flow and pressure if the rotational speed of a centrifugal fan is doubled?
it gets faster
What happens to the pressure when the temperature stay constant and the volume increase?
Since pressure is inversely proportional to volume(according to Boyle's law), if volume decreases, pressure will increase and vice versa i.e. volume increases pressure decreases!
What happens to the pressure as the volume changes?
Pressure will decrease with (because it is inversely proportianal to) volume, if (and only if!) temperature is held constant.

It would be half of the original volume. As you reduce the volume the pressure would increase and at half the original volume the pressure would be doubled.
What happens to the pressure gauge reading if the flow velocity is increased?
From the Bernoulli equation, pressure drop increases with the square of velocity. So if the velocity is doubled the pressure drop will increase by a factor of four.
What happens to pressure as altitude increased?
As altitude increases (i.e. when you get higher) pressure falls off inversely; a change near the higher reaches will not have as much of a pressure differential as the same distance change lower down.
What happens to pressure when the temperature and volume is halved?
if kelvin temp is halved, the volume is halved if pressure is constant.
What happens to the volume of a gas when the number of moles is doubled (all else held constant)?
At a constant volume the pressure increase.
What happens to the pressure if the temperature in K is doubled?
The initial pressure is halved. Use Boyle's law that relates pressure & volume at a constant temperature. P1V1 = P2V2 In this case the V1(initial volume) is doubled so V2 = 2V1 P2 = P1V1/V2 = P1V1/2V1 P2 = (1/2)*P1
What happens to gas when the pressure is decreased?
The pressure will increase.
