The volume stays the same if it is in a container. If it is not then the volume will increase.

PV = nRT

Pressure times Volume = number of moles times Gas constant times temperature


Thus if you raise temperature, pressure and/or volume must increase.

If the number of particles of gas is increased but the size of the closed container remains constant,
then the pressure and the temperature of the gas inside the container will increase. Exactly the same
result as increasing the number of people in a room while the size of the room remains constant.

What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volume of its container was increased?

Assuming you haven't put any more gas in the container, the pressure will go down. Usually, the reason the volume of the container gets larger is that you put more gas in the container and the gas pressure in the container seeks to equalize with the pressure outside it.


When the number of gas particles at constant pressure increases how will the volume of the gas chang?

If the space in which the gas is inside doesn't change, the volume of gas doesn't change


Why does increasing the pressure or concentration increase the rate of reaction?

Keep in mind that the reaction can only occur if the particles collide with enough power in the right position.The rate of reaction generally depends on four factors:ConcentrationNature of reactantsTemperatureCatalystsFor gases, pressure is also a factor. Say we have 1L of a gas and we compress it to 0.5L. Decreasing the volume will increase the pressure, and with a lower volume with the same number of particles increases the molarity (M). And as a convention, increasing the molarity/concentration increases the rate of the reaction because there is more of a chance for particles to collide in a small space rather than in a large space.Temperature also increases the rate of the reaction because it increases the kinetic energy of the particles, which will mean that more particles have the energy equal to or above the activation energy for the reaction to occur.


How does increasing the gas pressure increase the reaction rate?

Yes, because as pressure increases, the collisions between gas particles would occur more frequently and with more force. Therefore, the amount of potential energy would increase, and it would take a shorter time for the activation energy to be reached.


Does the number of particles affect the pressure of a gas?

Yes, it is normal.

How does increasing the number of particles in a contained gas affect its pressure?

It increases proportionally. This means that if you double the ammount of particles, the pressure doubles.

How number of particles increases when pressure increases?

Increased particle velocity v leads to increased sound pressure p. v = p / Z Scroll down to related links and look for "Sound Pressure" and for "Particle Velocity".


When the temperature of a gas gets higher what does its pressure do?

Increase. As the temperature increases, the particles hit the walls of the container more often and with more force. This causes the pressure to increase, since the definition of pressure is the number and force of collisions the particles have with the walls of its container.


How does increasing the number of particles of a contained gas it's pressure?

Pressure is defined as the force per unit area applied. This force is derived from the collision of particles. Pressure increase when this force is increase, and it applies otherwise too. By increasing the number of particles in a specific amount of gas, there are more particles colliding onto the container. This causes the force per unit exerted by the gas on the container to increase. As such, when one increases the number of particles within a container of gas, the pressure within the container will increase.


If you wanted to predict how temperature will effect the volume of a gas what factors must be held constant?

If temperature increases, then pressure increases. Temperature measures the average speed of particles, so if the temperature is high, then the particles are moving quickly and are colliding with other particles more forcefully. Pressure is defined as the force and number of collisions the particles have with the wall of its container. So if the high temperature causes the particles to move quickly, they are going to collide more often with the container, increasing the pressure. This remains true as long as the number of moles (n) remains constant.
