Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle’s law.
Q. Why does temperature increase when volume decreases?
Since the temperature of a gas is proportional to the square of the rms speed of the molecules, this compression leads to a very noticeable increase in temperature. So if you halve the volume (V/V’ = 2) of a diatomic gas (gamma = 7/5), the temperature will increase by a factor of 2^0.4 = 1.32.

Q. Are P and V directly proportional?
Boyle’s law states that pressure (P) and volume (V) are inversely proportional. Charles’ law states that volume (V) and temperature (T) are directly proportional. Gay-Lussac’s law states that pressure (P) and temperature (T) are directly proportional.
Q. Why does pressure increase and volume decreases?
Because the volume has decreased, the particles will collide more frequently with the walls of the container. More collisions mean more force, so the pressure will increase. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
Q. How does temperature change with pressure?
The pressure law states that for a constant volume of gas in a sealed container the temperature of the gas is directly proportional to its pressure. This means that they have more collisions with each other and the sides of the container and hence the pressure is increased.
Q. What is the value of R?
The value of R at atm that is at standard atmospheric pressure is R = 8.3144598 J. mol-1. K-1.
Q. What is the gas constant R?
The gas constant (also known as the molar gas constant, universal gas constant, or ideal gas constant) is denoted by the symbol R or R….Gas constant.
| Values of R | Units |
|---|---|
| 8./td> | J⋅K−1⋅mol−1 |
| 8./td> | m3⋅Pa⋅K−1⋅mol−1 |
| 8./td> | kg⋅m2·K−1⋅mol−1s−2 |
| 8.103 | L⋅Pa⋅K−1⋅mol−1 |
Q. How do you find V in PV nRT?
V = nRT/p = 40 * 8.3144598 * 250 / 101300 = 0.82 m³ ….Ideal gas law equation
- p is the pressure of the gas, measured in Pa;
- V is the volume of the gas, measured in m³;
- n is the amount of substance, measured in moles;
- R is the ideal gas constant; and.
- T is the temperature of the gas, measured in Kelvins.
Q. What is PV is equal to nRT?
PV=nRT. The ideal gas Law PV = nRT. Robert Boyle found PV = a constant. That is, the product of the pressure of a gas times the volume of a gas is a constant for a given sample of gas. In Boyle’s experiments the Temperature (T) did not change, nor did the number of moles (n) of gas present.
Q. What is the value of T in PV nRT?
The ideal gas law can be written in terms of the number of molecules of gas: PV = NkT, where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature, N is number of molecules, and k is the Boltzmann constant k = 1.38 × 10–23 J/K. A mole is the number of atoms in a 12-g sample of carbon-12.
Q. What are the 5 assumptions of an ideal gas?
The kinetic-molecular theory of gases assumes that ideal gas molecules (1) are constantly moving; (2) have negligible volume; (3) have negligible intermolecular forces; (4) undergo perfectly elastic collisions; and (5) have an average kinetic energy proportional to the ideal gas’s absolute temperature.
