Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What happens to the pressure of a gas if its volume is halved at constant temperature?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand that we are dealing with a gas and its properties.
Step 2: Know that pressure is how much force the gas particles exert on the walls of their container.
Step 3: Recognize that volume is the amount of space the gas occupies.
Step 4: Remember Boyle's law, which states that at constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely related.
Step 5: This means if you decrease the volume, the pressure increases.
Step 6: If the volume is halved, it means the space for the gas is reduced by half.
Step 7: Since the volume is halved, the pressure must double to maintain the relationship defined by Boyle's law.
