What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volume of a gas is tripled at a constant temperature?

The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume

∙ 15y agoIf the quantity of gas is the same then the only way to increase the pressure is in fact to increase the temperature. So the temperature must increase in order for the pressure to increase. Another way of saying this is that if the pressure has increased then the temperature must needs also have increased.

∙ 15y agoThe pressure will triple if the amount of the gas is tripled, but if the volume(the space it occupies) is tripled as the question asks, the pressure will decrease by 2/3. Tell that to the teacher.

∙ 12y agoLet's see with an example.
(1 atm)(1 liter gas)/(300 K) = (Xpressure)(3 liters gas)/(300 K)
900X = 300
X = 0.333 atmospheres
-------------------------------the pressure is reduced by 1/3
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe pressure will be 3 times less, if the gas is "ideal".
This is according to PV=nRT.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoThen the pressure will just decrease more (its the Boyle's Law).
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoThen the pressure of the gas would decrease signifigantly
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThen the pressure would also triple.

If volume is held constant and pressure is tripled what happens to temperature?
Temperature will be increase
If temperature of a gas tripled what happens to the volume?
Assuming a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, then the volume is reduced to a third of its former amount when the pressure is tripled. P V = n R T = constant = k P1 V1 = k = P2 V2 P2 = 3 P1 3 P1 V2 = P1 V1 V2 V1 / 3
What would happen to the pressure in the container if the number particles were tripled?
The pressure is higher (x 3).
A certain gas has volume of 500cm3. What is its volume when the pressure is tripled?
As a consequence of Boyle-Mariotte law: 166 cm3.
How the electric force between two positive change if the distance between the charges is tripled?
The electric force between two charged particles is inversely proportional to the square distance between them.Accordingly, it is reduced by a factor of 9
If volume is held constant and pressure is tripled what happens to temperature?
Temperature will be increase
What hppens to the pressure of gas if the volume of gas is tripled at a constant temperature?
PV=RT, if the volume is tripled at constant temperature, the pressure drops to one third.
What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volums of gas is tripled at a constant temperature?
The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume
What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volume of gas is tripled at a constant temperature?
The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume
What happens to the volume of gas when pressure is tripled and the temperature is held constant?
From Boyle's law pressure (P) times volume (V) divided by temperature T is a constant; so if T is held constant then if pressure triples volume is decreased to 1/3 its original value
What hopes to the pressure of a gas if the volume of gas is tripled at a constant temperature?
PV=nRT If n,R,T are constant than the only thing that can change is P 3*V has to be cancelled out 1/3 * 3 = 1 1/3P * 3V = nRT
What happen to the pressure of a gas if the volume of the gas is tripled of a constant temperature?
The pressure is reduced to one third of the original pressure. The pressure will stay the same you are only changing the volume
A sample of oxygen occupies 1.00 L If the temperature remains constant and the pressure on the oxygen is tripled what is the new volume?
0.667
What happens to the volume if the pressure on a gas is tripled?
Because of your mom
If temperature of a gas tripled what happens to the volume?
Assuming a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, then the volume is reduced to a third of its former amount when the pressure is tripled. P V = n R T = constant = k P1 V1 = k = P2 V2 P2 = 3 P1 3 P1 V2 = P1 V1 V2 V1 / 3
What happens to the acceleration if the force applied is increased three times?
Assuming the mass remains constant, the acceleration will be tripled as well.
The number of molecules in a container is tripled and the Kelvin temperature doubled The volume remains unchanged The new pressure will be how many times greater than the original pressure?
half
