Question

As the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature decreases, its pressure

Answer 1

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The volume is inversely proportional to the pressure.

i.e. V ∝ $\frac{1}{P}$

Answer 2

As the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature decreases, its pressure increases.

• The ideal gas law is given as-
• PV=nRT
• Where P is the pressure of the gas.
• V is the volume of the gas and n is the number of moles.
• T is the temperature of the gas and R is called the Rydberg constant.
• At constant temperature pressure of the ideal gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas.
• Thus as the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature decreases, its pressure increases.
