Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

At constant pressure, what is the relationship between volume and temperature of a gas?
  • Step 1: Understand that we are looking at a gas under constant pressure.
  • Step 2: Know that temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is, usually measured in degrees Celsius or Kelvin.
  • Step 3: Recognize that volume is the amount of space the gas occupies, usually measured in liters or cubic meters.
  • Step 4: Learn about Charles's Law, which states that if the pressure is constant, the volume of a gas increases as the temperature increases.
  • Step 5: This means that if you heat the gas (increase the temperature), it will expand (increase in volume).
  • Step 6: Conversely, if you cool the gas (decrease the temperature), it will contract (decrease in volume).
  • Step 7: Conclude that volume and temperature are directly proportional at constant pressure, meaning they change together.
  • Charles's Law – At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
