Volume and pressure vary indirectly, which means that when one goes up, the other goes down. If the pressure goes up, the volume goes down. If the volume goes up, the pressure goes down.

Mathematically:

P1V1 = P2V2

The left side represents the beginning conditions, and the right side represents the pressure and temperature that have changed. Note that this formula assumes constant mass and temperature.

Is oxygen free nitrogen pressure affected by temperature?

Yes, the pressure of oxygen-free nitrogen is affected by temperature. As temperature increases, the pressure of a gas also increases if the volume and amount of gas are constant, according to the ideal gas law. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the pressure decreases.


What is happening to a parcel of air when the dew point decreases if th amount of water vapor remains constant?

When the dew point decreases while the amount of water vapor remains constant, the air temperature is also decreasing. This means the air is cooling down without any change in water vapor content. Eventually, the air temperature will reach the new, lower dew point, and condensation will begin.


Does Nitrogen PSI change with temperature?

Yes, the pressure of nitrogen gas will change with temperature according to the ideal gas law. As temperature increases, the pressure of nitrogen gas will also increase, assuming the volume and amount of gas remain constant. Conversely, a decrease in temperature will result in a decrease in pressure, as long as other factors remain constant.


How does the pressure of nitrogen change with temperature?

The arrangement becomes more tight and compact whereas if the gas is not under high pressure the gas will take up more space. The arrangement becomes more tight and compact whereas if the gas is not under high pressure the gas will take up more space.


Describe the relationship between temperature and pressure?

The relationship between temperature and pressure is not named after a specific person, like Boyle's or Charles' Laws, but states that the relationship between the temperature and pressure of a gas (usually as observed in a rigid container) is direct. Therefore, as temperature increases, pressure does too.This is Gay-Lussac's law.The temperature and pressure of gasses are related. As the pressure increases the temperature also increases, and vice verse. As the pressure decreases the temperature gets colder.The ideal-gas law may be expressed as PV=nRT.Absolute temperature TNumber of moles (a measure of the number of molecules) nVolume VPressure PRydberg's constant R (some value that makes the numbers and the units work)Obviously, from the equation, you could half the temperature and keep the pressure the same, if, for example, you cut the volume in half. Or you could half the temperature and double the number of moles, and the pressure wouldn't change.

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.


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

decreases


What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volume increases?

It will increase? No it will decrease when the same amount of gas is held at constant temperature.


What will you observe about the temperature of a fixed amount of air inside a rigid container if the pressure inside decreases?

If the pressure inside the container decreases, the temperature of the air inside will also decrease. This is known as Charles's Law, which states that as the pressure of a gas decreases, its temperature decreases as well, assuming the volume stays constant.


When a sample of gas is cooled in a closed container the pressure inside the container?

decreases as the temperature of the gas decreases. This relationship is explained by the ideal gas law, which states that pressure is inversely proportional to temperature when volume and amount of gas are constant.


According to Charles law the volume of a given amount of gas is proportional to temperature when?

the pressure is constant. This means that as the temperature of a gas increases, its volume will also increase proportionally. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the volume will decrease accordingly, as long as the pressure remains constant.


When a container decreases in size what will happen to an amount of gas in the container?

If the container decreases in size, the pressure inside the container will increase. This is because the gas molecules are more confined and collide more frequently with the walls of the container. The amount of gas remains constant, but the pressure changes due to the reduced volume.


How does deacresing the temperature affect the volume of a gas?

If the amount of gas and the pressure remain constant, the volume will decrease by 1/273rd the original volume for each degree Celsius that the temperature decreases.


Is oxygen free nitrogen pressure affected by temperature?

Yes, the pressure of oxygen-free nitrogen is affected by temperature. As temperature increases, the pressure of a gas also increases if the volume and amount of gas are constant, according to the ideal gas law. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the pressure decreases.


How does the gas volume vary with change in pressure?

This one is explained in Boyle's Law. It was stated that if the temperature is constant, the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. Thus, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases. It is also the same as if the pressure decreases, the volume of the gas increases.


If the amount and temperature of a gas are kept constant the pressure and volume of the gas are what?

When you say "amount", I'll assume you mean the 'mass' of the sample.The pressure and volume will be inversely proportional. That means that whateveryou do to one of them, the other one will change in just the right way so that theirproduct is always the same number.


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.
