the relation is given by charles law which says that the volume of a constant mass of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature

so increase in temperature causes an increASE in the volume

What effect does raising the temperature of a gas have on its pressure if the volume of the gas and the number of particles are kept constant?

Raising the temperature of a gas will increase its pressure, following the ideal gas law (PV = nRT). As temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the gas particles also increases, leading to more frequent and forceful collisions with the walls of the container, resulting in higher pressure.


If the temperature of a fixed amount of gas is increased at a constant pressure what will happen to a volume?

Volume will increase. Think of it this way. If you heat a gas, it gets hotter. When a gas gets hotter, the atoms/molecules are "more active" and the pressure and/or the volume will go up. If your experiment with heating this gas sample must have a constant pressure, then volume will have to increase to give all those "more active" atoms/molecules more play room to prevent the pressure from going up.


What is the effect of varying pressures on the boiling point of a substance?

The boiling point of a substance increases with higher pressure and decreases with lower pressure. This is because pressure affects the energy required for molecules to escape into the gas phase.


How does pressure affect the density of a liquid?

Most liquids are incompressible (or nearly so), therefore ordinary pressures have only a negligibly small effect on the density of a liquid. However, if you consider enormous pressures like those that may exist at the core of the sun, then a liquid's density will be increased by pressure under these extreme conditions.


What is the effect of the temperature on the gas flow rate?

An increase in temperature typically leads to an increase in gas flow rate due to the gas particles gaining more energy and moving faster. Conversely, a decrease in temperature tends to decrease the gas flow rate as the particles slow down. This relationship is described by the ideal gas law, where volume and pressure are held constant.

How did pressure effects the sound when temperature is constant?

The atmospheric pressure has no effect on the speed of sound when the temperature is constant. The air pressure has no influence on the sound.

How does temperature effect a volume air?

Temperature is not directly tied to volume, its related to pressure. Increasing the temperature will increase the pressure--only if volume is held constant. That is were volume and temperature are related, through pressure. However, if you increase the volume it does not change the temperature.


What is a factor held constant?

In science, as in real life sometimes several 'factors' effect the outcome of an experiment. In order to make the problem easier to study one or more of these is 'held constant' or not allowed to change in order to see the effect of the other variables. EX. Gas volume can be effected by both pressure and temperature. In order to understand the effect of pressure, Boyle kept the temperature constant. He then changed the pressure to see what happened to the volume of a gas. This gave him what is now called Boyle's Law: The volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure when the temperature is held constant.

If you wanted to predict how temperature will effect the volume of a gas what factors must be held constant?

If temperature increases, then pressure increases. Temperature measures the average speed of particles, so if the temperature is high, then the particles are moving quickly and are colliding with other particles more forcefully. Pressure is defined as the force and number of collisions the particles have with the wall of its container. So if the high temperature causes the particles to move quickly, they are going to collide more often with the container, increasing the pressure. This remains true as long as the number of moles (n) remains constant.


What is the effect on pressure when the temperature of a gas at constant volume is increased?

Universal Gas Law: P*V/T = a constant, where P = gas pressure [Pa], V = volume [m3], and T = gas temperature [K]. Therefore, when the gas temperature increases, the pressure increases linearly with it, when the volume is constant.


What would the effect on temperature and volume be if you changed the number of moles of gas in a container?

In a container the volume remain constant but the pressure increase.


How is the Joule-Thomson effect calculated in thermodynamics?

The Joule-Thomson effect is calculated in thermodynamics by using the Joule-Thomson coefficient, which is the rate of change of temperature with pressure at constant enthalpy. This coefficient is determined by taking the partial derivative of temperature with respect to pressure at constant enthalpy. The formula for the Joule-Thomson coefficient is given by (T/P)H, where is the Joule-Thomson coefficient, T is temperature, P is pressure, and H is enthalpy.
