What is the formula for calculating the change in pressure when the volume and temperature of a gas are held constant?

The formula for calculating the change in pressure when the volume and temperature of a gas are held constant is: P (nRT/V)T, where P is the change in pressure, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant, T is the temperature, V is the volume, and T is the change in temperature.


How is isothermal possible in a balloon?

Isothermal is where pressure and/or volume changes, but temperature remains constant. Pressure, Volume, and Temperature are related as: PV = nRT =NkT for an ideal gas. Here, we see that since a balloon's volume is allowed to change, its pressure remains relatively constant. Whenever there is a pressure change, it'll be offset by an equivalent change in volume, thus temperature is constant.


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.


How does temperature effect a volume air?

Temperature is not directly tied to volume, its related to pressure. Increasing the temperature will increase the pressure--only if volume is held constant. That is were volume and temperature are related, through pressure. However, if you increase the volume it does not change the temperature.


What is the kind of matter that can change in shape but not volume?

Liquids. By assuming that temperature and pressure are constant so that volume does not 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.


How does volume of matter change with increase in temperature?

Assuming that pressure and the amount of matter are constant (meaning they do not change), volume will increase as temperature increases.


How will volume of a balloon change if pressure remains constant but pressure increase?

The volume will increase in proportion to the increase in absolute temperature.


How will volume of a balloon change if pressure remains constant but temperature increases?

The volume will increase in proportion to the increase in absolute temperature.


Do not have definite?

Gases are highly compressible. So they don't have definite volume and pressure. As volume is reduced for a given mass pressure increases. Also as temperature changes then at constant volume pressure changes considerably. Same way for a constant pressure temperature change brings a change in the volume. Moreover gasses do not have a free surface.


When the temperature is constant will the the volume of a gas decrease as the pressure decreases?

At constant temperature p.V=constant, so pressure INcreases when decreasing the volume.
