The gas volume become constant when the pressure is increased to a point that makes the distance between the gas molecules equal to zero at this point no more increase of temperature with pressure is observed. Or if the pressure and temperature are kept constant within a system then the volume can also be constant as long as you are able to maintain the pressure and temperature at constant level.

What happens to the volume of gas when pressure doubles?

If the temperature remains constant, the volume of the gas will halve when the pressure doubles. This is described by Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional when temperature is held constant.


What happens to the pressure of a confined gas at a constant temperature when the volume is reduced by half?

When the volume of a confined gas is reduced by half at a constant temperature, the pressure of the gas will double according to Boyle's Law. This is because the product of pressure and volume is constant for a given amount of gas at constant temperature. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases to maintain this equilibrium.


A fixed mass of a gas is at a constant temperature what happens to the volume when u increase the pressure?

When pressure is increased on a fixed mass of gas at constant temperature, the volume of the gas will decrease. This is known as Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional when temperature is held constant.


What happens to temperature if pressure goes down and volume stays the same?

Yes. Since pressure and volume are inversely related, volume decreases when pressure increases (as long as temperature is constant). Consider the equation: PV=nRT, where n = moles, T is in degrees Kelvin, and R is the gas constant 0.082. Do the algebra and see how: P=nRT/V and the inverses become more easily understood.


If volume is held constant and pressure is tripled what happens to temperature?

If volume is held constant and pressure is tripled, the temperature will also triple according to the ideal gas law (PV = nRT). This relationship is known as Gay-Lussac's Law.

If temperature remains constant but volume of gas increases then what happens with the pressure?

If temperature remains constant and the volume of gas increases, the pressure will decrease. This is described by Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional when temperature is constant.


If the temperature of a gas is decreased at a constant pressure what happens to its volume?
