How does the temperature of gas change when it is compressed when it expands?

Gas is a loosely bound group of molecules that have changed phase from solid to liquid to gas through an increase in thermal energy. Once it has reached the gas phase, heating gas can increase its temperature because the energy will not go into the potential energy of a phase change, but instead the kinetic energy of phase change.

∙ 14y agoAssuming that the pressure is kept the same, Charles's Law tells you that when you compress a gas, its temperature will decrease, and when you expand it, its temperature will increase. Not only will there be an increase, but the increase will be such that the volume (in Liters) divided by the temperature (in Kelvin) in any configuration will equal a constant value which happens to be nR/P where n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant (.0821 L*atm/mol*K), and P is the pressure of the gas in atmospheres.

Is LPG a solid liquid or a gas?
Liquefied petroleum gas is a gas at room temperature but is compressed into a liquid for transportation.
How do you compress natural gas?
Natural gas is compressed when it is cooled. When cooled to a temperature of -162 Degrees, it becomes liquid.
What happens to the number of molecules of the gas when it is compressed?
It does not change, unless a chemical reaction in the gas happens.
Is natural gas a liquid gas or solid?
Natural gas in its normal form is a gas. When natural gas is cooled to a temperature of -162 degrees C, it is compressed into a liquid is is 1/600th its original size. Liquefied natural gas is much easier to transport then compressed natural gas.
1.00 L of a gas at standard temperature and pressure is compressed to 473 mL What is the new pressure of the gas?
2.11 atm
Why do balloons expands when its temperature increases?
Balloons are filled with gas and gas expands when temperature increases. Gas also condenses when the temperature is lowered. This is due to Charles' law.
What results from increasing the temperature of a gas?
The gas expands.
What happens to the temperature of a gas that is squeezed or compressed?
If you compress a gas the temperature increases
How does the temperature of gas change when it is compressed if the process is adiabatic?
In an adiabatic process, the temperature is increased when it is compressed. There is an increase in internal kinetic energy, and because temperature is related to kinetic energy, it is also increased.
Is freon a solid liquid or a gas?
It could be any of the three but at room temperature it is a gas. Freon is a gas
What happen when a gas is cool?
A change in temperature will change its properties, like from gaseous form to liquid form for example.
Why water expand when it losses heat to turn into ice?
Th water on your body evaporates into the air and since evaporation ... You can experience temperature change due to compression by examining a can of ... your body it feels very cold because the compressed gas expands and loses heat.
Why can the vulume of a gas change and the solid of a remain constaant?
In a solid,particles are packed tightly to each other while the gas particles are not packed tightly. So the gas particles can be compressed and can change the volume. Solids cannot be compressed to change the volume.
Does the vloume of a gas change when its compressed?
Yes, when a gas is compressed it could form into a solid or liquid substance.
How does temperature affect the gas in a balloon?
Heat expands the gas (any gas) and makes the balloon rise.
What happens to the temperature and the speed of the molecules when gas is compressed?
The temperature and speed remain constant.
What happend to air when it is compressed or allowed to expand?
When air is allowed to expand, it cools, and when it is compressed, it warms. Additional Information: Contraction, like compression is shrinkage that can actually be caused by cooling and should not be confused with compression.
