What decreases when gas pressure increases?
volume
What are the 3 common states of matter on the planet?
The three common states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume and expand to fill their container.
What will happen if a gas held at a constant temperature has an increase in pressure applied to it?
This is consequence of a very common law which is known as Boyle's law.According to it when we give pressure to the gas at constant temperature the volume of gas decreases.The gas law formula is: pV/T=k; the volume is decreasing.
How does compressing a gas affect volume?
Compressing a gas means increasing the pressure on the gas and according to Boyle's law pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of a given amount of a gas(at constant temperature) . Therefore increasing the pressure (compression) of the gas reduces the volume of the gas.
At 1250 mm Hg and 75 degrees Celsius the volume of a sample of ammonia gas is 6.28 L What volume would the ammonia occupy at STP?
8.10 L
If a fixed sample of gas increases in temperature it must also do what?
If a fixed volume of gas increases in temperature, it must increase in volume. If the gas is in a closed system, the pressure inside that system increases instead. When the gas increases in volume, it also decreases in pressure, often rising above colder, more dense gas if possible.
If a fixed sample of a gas increases in temperature at a constant pressure its volume does what?
Increases in direct proportion to the increase in temperature (on an absolute scale).
When a fixed sample of gas increases in volume what happens to the pressure and temperature?
The frequency of collisions is reduced
When you heat a gas what will it do?
There isn't any simple answer, because the result will depend on how you handle the gas physically.First of all, if you heat a sample of gas, its temperature increases. But it doesn'tstop there:If the gas is confined to a fixed, limited volume ... like in a jar ... then when itstemperature increases, its pressure does too, in direct proportion to its absolutetemperature.If its volume is not rigidly fixed ... like in a balloon ... then both its pressure and itsvolume can increase, so that their product is directly proportional to the absolutetemperature of the gas.
How does the volume of an ideal gas at constant temperature and pressure change as the number of molecules increases?
As you decrease the volume, the pressure will increase proportionally, and if you increase the volume, then the pressure will decrease.
What As a temperature of a fixed volume of a gas increases the pressure will?
Pressure will be decreased
Which sample would have a larger volume Suppose that you have two gas samples gas A and gas B . The sample of gas A has twice as many particles as gas B . Which sample would have a larger volume?
The gas A has larger volume (x2).
Has no fixed volume or shape?
A gas has no fixed volume or shape.
What happens to a fixed sample of gas when its temperature changes?
If a fixed sample of gas has a change of temperature pressure would increase.
What has no fixed shape or no fixed volume?
Gas
Does fixed mass of gas have fixed volume?
No.
What happens to an enclosed gas if the temperature is increased?
For an enclosed gas (contained in a fixed volume), the pressure increases as temperature increases.Another way to picture this is that at higher temperatures, the gas molecules colliding with the walls of the container are more energetic, so the force exerted (pressure) is greater.
