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.

The volume decreases


How does the pressure of a gas change if you increase volume?

If you increase the volume of the container, and not the gas itself, then the pressure decreases. If you increase the volume of the gas, and not the container, then the pressure increases.


What could you do to change volume of a gas?

Change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas.


At constant pressure how does the volume of 1 mole of an ideal gas vary?

The volume varies inversely with pressure.


If the temperature and volume of a gas changes what else will change?

Volume ChangesThe volume of any solid, liquid, or gas will change with changes in temperature.


When the number of gas particles at constant pressure increases how will the volume of the gas change?

If the space in which the gas is inside doesn't change, the volume of gas doesn't change


What happens to the pressure of gas when the volume is doubled and no change in Kelvin temperature?

According to Boyle's Law, when the volume of a gas is doubled with no change in Kelvin temperature, the pressure of the gas will be halved. This is because pressure and volume are inversely proportional in a gas at constant temperature.


When scientists record the volume on a gas why do they also record the temperature and the pressure?

because the volume of the gas is dependent upon the temperature and pressure. This is also important in the identification of the molecular mass of an unknown gaseous element.


How the volume of a gas will change if the pressure on it is made less?

If the pressure on a gas is decreased, the volume of the gas will increase. This relationship is described by Boyle's Law, which states that at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume. As pressure decreases, the gas particles have more space to move, causing an increase in volume.


Does gas have a definite volume and can change volume?

What can be done to change the volume of gas?

You can decrease the pressure. As pressure decreases, volume increases. and vice versa


What will increase the volume of gas?

change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas
