What happens to pressure when temperature decreases?

Back

Pressure decreases.

Front

What is Boyle's Law?

Back

Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature.

Front

What is Charles's Law?

Back

Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure.

Front

What is the relationship between pressure and volume in a gas?

Back

As volume increases, pressure decreases, and vice versa, assuming temperature is constant.

Front

What is the effect of increasing the number of gas particles on pressure?

Back

Increasing the number of gas particles increases the pressure, assuming volume and temperature are constant.

Front

What is the ideal gas law?

Back

The ideal gas law is PV=nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature.
