Does doubling celsius temperature double pressure?

Using the Celsius temperature scale, it is not correct. But doubling the temperature using the Kelvin temperature scale, where zero is the absolute minimum gegree possible, will double pressure . p1/T1=p2/T2=constant.


Do Charles' law indicates that an increase in absolute temperature will cause a corresponding increase in volume?

Charles's law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas increases or decreases by the same factor as its absolute temperature. For fixed mass of an Ideal Gas at constant pressure the volume it occupies is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. So, if you double the absolute temperature of a gas while holding its pressure constant, the volume has to double. There is no such thing as an Ideal Gas. So, doubling the temperature of a real gas will not exactly double its volume. However, the general principle hold true. If you increase the temperature of any gas at constant pressure the volume it occupies will increase.


Why is doubling the Celsius temperature a good approximation?

The equation for working out the temperature in fahrenheit from celsius is f = 9c/5 + 32 In other words, you multiply by slightly less than two, and then add more on. Therefore for many temperatures, just doubling would be a good approximation. Indeed, when the temperature is 160celsius, doubling would be correct.


Is the sum of a number and its absolute value always 0?

no, If the original number is positive, it adds the absolute value (always a positive) to the first number thus doubling it


Can gases be expanded more than liquids?

Gases expand in proportion to the change in absolute temperature (deg kelvin). Thus if you took a volume of a gas at say 0 deg C (273 kelvin) and heated it to 273 deg C, that is doubling the degrees kelvin, keeping the pressure constant, the volume would double. Water on the other hand has a coefficient of expansion of 207 x 10-6 per deg Kelvin, so doubling its absolute temperature from 0 degC to 273 degC would only increase its volume by 5.65 x 10-2 = 0.0565, or 5.65 percent


Does absolute pressure in a liquid of constant density double when the depth is doubled?

No, the absolute pressure in a liquid of constant density would not double in this situation. This is because the atmospheric pressure is an independent variable, so it will keep the absolute pressure from doubling.


Pressure is used to increase the volume of gas?

An increase of the temperature or a decrease of the pressure.


What does doubling the energy content do to temperature?

This will depend on what kind of temperature scale you intend to use.Degrees Celsius, Degrees Fahrenheit or Kelvin.Celsius:If we have a positive number, say 10 degrees Celsius, then we would get 20 degrees Celsius.If we have a negative number, say -10 degrees Celsius, then we get -20 degrees Celsius. It will simply be twice as cold.Fahrenheit:Exactly the same rules apply as for Celsius in the examples of Celsius.Kelvin:Kelvin is an absolute that is "only" dealing with positive numbers.double of 10 Kelvin is 20 Kelvin. Double again and we get 40 Kelvin. Easy as pie.Temperature indicate how much energy there is in an object or a mix of objects.When doubling the temperature in Celsius, we add to this energy.When doubling the temperature in Fahrenheit, we add to this energy, but not as much as we would in Celsius.When doubling the temperature in Kelvin, then we actually double the energy-content. Much more than when using either Celsius or Fahrenheit.Increased temperature mean increased speed of reactions.


What temperature change would cause a sample of an ideal gas to double in volume while the pressure was held constant?

If the volume is fixed, then doubling the absolute temperature will double the pressure.At 0° C, the absolute temperature is 273 K. Heat the gas to 273° C = 546 K.


How you could use doubling to find the product 13 X 4?

Doubling a number is equivalent to multiplying by 2. Doubling twice (doubling, and then doubling the result again) is equivalent to multiplying by 4. (Also, doubling three times is the same as multiplying by 8, doubling 4 times is the same as multiplying by 16, etc.)


Does doubling the angle of incidence cause the angle of refraction to double?

No, doubling the angle of incidence itself will not cause a doubling of the angle of refraction.


If bacteria doubles in a generation How many bacteria will be in the sixth generation?

I'm not completely sure but I think it's like this. Doubling 1 would be 2. Doubling 2 would be 4. Doubling 4 would be 8. Doubling 8 would be 16. Doubling 16 would be 32. Doubling 32 would be 64. (
