Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What happens to the volume of a gas when the temperature is increased at constant pressure?
  • Step 1: Understand that gases are made of tiny particles that move around.
  • Step 2: Know that temperature is a measure of how fast these particles are moving.
  • Step 3: Realize that when you increase the temperature, the particles move faster.
  • Step 4: As the particles move faster, they push against the walls of their container more forcefully.
  • Step 5: If the pressure is kept constant, the gas needs more space to move around.
  • Step 6: Therefore, the volume of the gas increases when the temperature is increased.
