If I remember correctly it is a little more complicated than that. The general equation PV=nRT for an ideal gas is elementary knowledge. The fact is that when you increase temperature many things can happen. It depends on how you treat your system. In general if you increase temperature in an open system the pressure will remain fairly constant, but the volume will increase. If it is a closed system in which the volume is not allowed to expand the pressure will increase with increased temperature. You also have to remember chemical properties also such as phase changes. Hope that rambling mess helps lol.

What happened to the pressure and temperature when you increased the volume of the gas?

When the volume of a gas is increased, the pressure of the gas decreases while the temperature remains constant, assuming the gas is behaving ideally. This relationship is described by Boyle's Law, which states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume at constant temperature.


What happens if Kinetic energy of a gas is lowered?

the pressure decreases D:


What happens when you decrease the temperature of a gas?

I think you meant what happens to the gas particles when the temperature decreases. If the volume of gas is constant(eg in a fixed container), the pressure of the gas will decrease. If the gas is in a container with a variable volume(eg. balloon), the volume of gas will decrease.


What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in a closed container?

A decrease in temperature or a decrease in the number of gas molecules in the container will cause a decrease in gas pressure. Alternatively, if some of the gas molecules escape from the container, the pressure will also decrease.


Am according to Boyle's law what happens to the pressure of the temperature of a gas stays constant when the volume decreases?

When the volume of a gas decreases at constant temperature according to Boyle's Law, the pressure of the gas increases. This relationship is represented by the formula P1V1 = P2V2, indicating that as the volume decreases, the pressure must increase to maintain the product of pressure and volume constant.

When the temperature is constant will the the volume of a gas decrease as the pressure decreases?

At constant temperature p.V=constant, so pressure INcreases when decreasing the volume.


When the temperature of a gas is constant will the volume increase or decrease as the pressure decreases?

When the temperature of a gas is constant and the pressure decreases, the volume will increase. This is described by Boyle's Law, which states that at constant temperature, the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional to each other.


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.


If the temperature of gas in the container decreases what happens to its pressure?

Assuming the volume is kept constant, the pressure will also decrease in this case.


When the temperature is constant the volume of a gas will decrease as the pressure decreases. true or false?

False, see Boyle's law


When temperature of a gas decreases at constant volume it?

...pressure decreases.


When the temperature of a gas decreases a constant volume its?

...pressure decreases.


What law of gas decrease in temperature and decrease in volume?

Charles's Law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. Therefore, when the temperature of a gas decreases, its volume will also decrease.


Does a decrease in temperature results in a decrease or in crease in the volume of gas?

Temperature is directly proportional to volume i.e. as temperature increases volume of gas also increases and as it decreases, the volume also decreases


When the temperature of a gas at constant volume decreases it's?

When the temperature of of gas increases at constant pressure its?

As pressure increases, if temperature is constant, the gas will decrease in volume.
