What effects does temperature have on pressure in a closed container?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
Well the temperature of a gas in a container is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas & according to the kinetic theory of gases (viewing gases as made of particles which are in constant random motion) the change in pressure with respect to temperature is given by 2mvx where m is mass and vx the x-coordinate of the initial velocity of the particle. (looking at it as the molecules are colliding with the walls of the container along an axis, x in this case). this proportionality is the basis (implicitly) of Charles's law, Gay-Lussac's law and Boyle's law.

In a closed containerwhat effects does pressure have on a gas volume and density?
The gas pressure in a closed container increases with volume and increased temperature. Likewise, the pressure will decrease with decreased temperature.
Is the partial pressure of a liquid or solid in a closed container measured at equilibrium at a given temperature?
vapor pressure
Do Gases have a definite shape and volume true or false?
False. Gases in a container take the shape of the container. The volume of a gas increases with temperature and inversely with pressure, except when in a closed container where volume remains the same as the volume of the container and the temperature and pressure will vary.
When does raising the temperature of gas increase its pressure?
Increasing the temperature of a gas will increase it's pressure ONLY if the volume is held constant.
When a sample of gas is cooled in a closed container the pressure inside the container?
increases......
In a closed containerwhat effects does pressure have on a gas volume and density?
The gas pressure in a closed container increases with volume and increased temperature. Likewise, the pressure will decrease with decreased temperature.
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.
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 will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed containe?
A reduction in the temperature of the container.
Is the partial pressure of a liquid or solid in a closed container measured at equilibrium at a given temperature?
vapor pressure
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.
Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in closed rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase?
Because the pressure increases The real answer is: Charles's Law. He found that if you increase the temperature of a constant pressure the volume increases also.
In a closed container if you increase the temperature will the pressure also increase?
yes because it directly proportional with it
What happens when solute particles are added to a pure solvent in a closed container at a constant temperature and pressure?
it decreases.
What will cause a a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container?
Either decrease the amount of gas, or decrease the temperature.
Do Gases have a definite shape and volume true or false?
False. Gases in a container take the shape of the container. The volume of a gas increases with temperature and inversely with pressure, except when in a closed container where volume remains the same as the volume of the container and the temperature and pressure will vary.
How do gases behave in a closed container?
Since you have specified a closed container, the amount of gas doesn't change, and the volume that it occupies doesn't change. The only thing that is likely to change is the temperature, and changes in temperature will cause corresponding changes in pressure. And if the pressure gets too high, your closed container is going to explode. So avoid overheating.
