What happens if: (fill in the blanks)
The number of moles is halved, the pressure ___
The temperature is tripled, the volume ___
The temperature is quadrupled, the pressure ___
The pressure is doubled, the volume ___
The pressure is cut by 1/3, the volume ____
Solution
According to the ideal gas law , pV = nRT , pressure , volume and temperature are related to
each other.
So here :
The number of moles is halved , the pressure halves.
The temperature is tripled , the volume triples.
The temperature is quadrupled , the pressure quadruples.
The pressure is doubled , the volume halves.
The pressure is cut by 1/3 , the volume triples.
