  4. Pressure fluctuates

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a closed container, if the temperature of a gas is increased, what happens to the pressure if the volume remains constant?
  • Step 1: Understand that we have a closed container with gas inside.
  • Step 2: Know that the volume of the container does not change (it is constant).
  • Step 3: Recognize that we are increasing the temperature of the gas.
  • Step 4: Remember that according to Gay-Lussac's Law, if the volume is constant, pressure increases when temperature increases.
  • Step 5: Conclude that as the temperature of the gas goes up, the pressure inside the container also goes up.
