Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
If the temperature of a gas is doubled at constant volume, what happens to the pressure?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand that we are dealing with a gas in a closed container where the volume does not change.
Step 2: Know that temperature is measured in Kelvin for gas laws, so if the temperature is doubled, we are increasing the temperature value.
Step 3: Recall Gay-Lussac's Law, which states that pressure is directly proportional to temperature when volume is constant.
Step 4: If the temperature doubles, the pressure must also double to maintain the relationship defined by Gay-Lussac's Law.
Step 5: Conclude that if the temperature of the gas is doubled, the pressure will also double.
Gay-Lussac's Law
– This law states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature when the volume is held constant.
