Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the relationship between pressure and temperature in a closed system according to Gay-Lussac's Law?
  • Step 1: Understand that Gay-Lussac's Law deals with gases in a closed system.
  • Step 2: Know that 'pressure' is how much force the gas particles exert on the walls of their container.
  • Step 3: Learn that 'temperature' is a measure of how fast the gas particles are moving.
  • Step 4: Remember that 'absolute temperature' means the temperature measured in Kelvin, which starts at absolute zero.
  • Step 5: Recognize that Gay-Lussac's Law states that if you keep the volume of the gas the same, increasing the temperature will increase the pressure.
  • Step 6: Understand that this means pressure and temperature move together: if one goes up, the other goes up too.
