Q
Q: What happens to the volume of a gas when it is compressed at constant temperature?
Solution:
According to Boyle's Law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas decreases when the pressure increases due to compression.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that gases take up space and have volume.
Step 2: Know that when we compress a gas, we are pushing it into a smaller space.
Step 3: Remember that Boyle's Law states that if the temperature is constant, the volume of a gas is inversely related to its pressure.
Step 4: This means that if we increase the pressure (by compressing the gas), the volume must decrease.
Step 5: Therefore, when a gas is compressed at constant temperature, its volume decreases.
