They're proportional; as temperature increases volume increases.

What is Lussac Law?

A statement, derived by French physicist and chemist Joseph Gay-Lussac (1778-1850), which holds that the pressure of a gas is directly related to its absolute temperature. Hence, the ratio of pressure to absolute temperature is a constant.


When the pressure on a gas increases at constant temperature its volume?

decreases


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.


When the volume is held constant the relationship between pressure and temperature is?

When volume is held constant, the relationship between pressure and temperature is directly proportional. This is known as Gay-Lussac's Law, which states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature when volume is constant. This means that as temperature increases, pressure also increases, and vice versa.


How are pressure volume and temperature of gases related?

The temperature, pressure, and volume of gases can be related by the ideal gas equation. PV = nRT where P is pressure, V is volume, n is moles, R is that ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

Why you use kelivin in calculation instead of celsius and Fahrenheit?

Kelvin has the advantage that it is an absolute temperature scale - it starts from absolute zero. This simplifies several calculations; for example, in an ideal gas, at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to the absolute temperature. Similarly, calculations related to heat machines are simpler if an absolute temperature scale is used.


What happens when to a gas when heat is added?

If under constant pressure, it expands, but if it has a fixed volume, the pressure will increase. These are related, the formula is (pressure x volume = constant x temperature), or p x v = R x T. T has to be absolute ie degrees kelvin


How is the pressure and absolute temperature of a gas at constant volume related?

It is change in internal energy. If the volume of the system remains unchanged (isochoric process)then the heat given to the system is entirely utilized to increase the internal energy of that system. It is to be noted that no pressure-voulme work is done in such processes.


How does temperature effect a volume air?

Temperature is not directly tied to volume, its related to pressure. Increasing the temperature will increase the pressure--only if volume is held constant. That is were volume and temperature are related, through pressure. However, if you increase the volume it does not change the temperature.


What law states that volume and temperature are directly related?

The law that states that volume and temperature are directly related is known as Charles's Law. It asserts that, at constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (measured in Kelvin). This means that if the temperature of a gas increases, its volume also increases, provided the pressure remains unchanged. Conversely, if the temperature decreases, the volume decreases as well.


How are the volume and pressure of a gas at a constant temperature related?

They're proportional; as temperature increases volume increases.


How are the volume and temperature of a gas at at constant pressure related?

They're proportional; as temperature increases volume increases.


Which statement is true regarding a fixed quantity of gas at a constant pressure?

At constant pressure the temperature and the volume of a gas are directly related; this the Charle Law.


What is the relation between pressure and temperature?

In general, when you have a system at a constant volume, pressure will increaseas you increase its temperature. In the particular case of an ideal gas where the relation between pressure P, absolute temperature T and volume V is given byPV =nRT(where n is moles and R the Universal Gas Constant), pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperatureof the gas.Temperature and pressure are very much inter-related via the Ideal Gas LawPV=nRTThe major different would be that Temperature is a measurement of kinetic energy, while pressure is measurement of force per unit area.
