The formula is pV=k; this is the Boyle-Mariotte law. If the pressure increase in a closed system the volume decrease.
It is an important gas law.

What is it called when The volume of a gas increases as temperature increases?
Charles's Law states that (Volume)/(Temperature) is constant, assuming constant pressure and moles of gas. This means that (V1)/(T1) = (V2)/(T2). So if the volume of the gas increases, V2 is bigger than V1; to keep the ratio constant, T2 must also increase, which represents an increase in temperature.
What is it called when an animal maintains a constant internal temperature even when it is cold outside?
It is called homeostasis (internal environment maintained at a constant level) or thermostasis (internal heat maintained at a constant temperature). The overall name for the processes by which temperature is controlled is thermoregulation.
In Gas Chromatography isothermal is when the temperature is constant but what is it called when the temperature is programmed to increase?
Temperature Programming (from what i learned in Quantitative Analysis)
What could a region that covers two states and has a similar pressure and temperature be called?
A region that covers two states and has a similar pressure and temperature is called an air mass.
The measure of the total amount of solid material dissolved in seawater is called?
salinity
What is it called when the volume of a gas increases and the pressure decreases?
Charles' Law says that as pressure on a gas decreases, its volume increases. Charles' Law is an example of an inverse relationship.t It is not Charle's law It is Boyle's law Charles law states at constant volume, pressure is proportional to kelvin temperature And at constant pressure volume is proportional to kelvin temperature But Boyle's law states that at constant temperature pressure is inversely related to volume
What is isobaric process?
The process in which change in volume and temperature takes place at a constant pressure is called an isobaric process
Pressure and volume changes at a constant temperature can be calculated using?
You can use Boyle's law to calculate pressure and volume changes at a constant temperature. Boyle's law is an experimental gas law that is sometimes called Boyle-Mariotte law.
As the temperature of a gas increases the volume of the gas must also increase to maintain constant pressure.?
That is correct. it's called Charles's law. it shows the connection between a gases temperature and its volume. in order to maintain constant pressure you must increase the volume of the container holding the gas if you increase the temperature of the gas.
If the temperature of a fixed amount of gas is increased at a constant pressure what will happen to a volume?
Volume will increase. Think of it this way. If you heat a gas, it gets hotter. When a gas gets hotter, the atoms/molecules are "more active" and the pressure and/or the volume will go up. If your experiment with heating this gas sample must have a constant pressure, then volume will have to increase to give all those "more active" atoms/molecules more play room to prevent the pressure from going up.
The constant pressure in the walls of the arteries is called?
Diastolic pressure
What is a factor held constant?
In science, as in real life sometimes several 'factors' effect the outcome of an experiment. In order to make the problem easier to study one or more of these is 'held constant' or not allowed to change in order to see the effect of the other variables. EX. Gas volume can be effected by both pressure and temperature. In order to understand the effect of pressure, Boyle kept the temperature constant. He then changed the pressure to see what happened to the volume of a gas. This gave him what is now called Boyle's Law: The volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure when the temperature is held constant.

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 is the relationship between volume temperature and pressure that is useful for designing things with fixed-volume pistons?
You can use the ideal gas law: PV=RTn, where: P is the pressure V is the volume R is the proportionality constant, the so-called "gas constant" T is the absolute temperature n is the number of moles
Does temperature affect hydrostatic pressure?
YES it is called "pressure temperature relationship" temperature rises so does the pressure
Is the heat content of a system at a constant pressure?
Yes it is possible, for example when water freezes there is a point when the temperature remains constant however energy is released as the water condenses.
