Show hintHide hint
Think about how gas in a balloon behaves when it gets warmer.
Question 2.
What happens to the pressure of a gas if its volume decreases?
Show hintHide hint
Consider Boyle's Law.
3Question 3.
What does Charles' Law state about gas and temperature?
- Volume is inversely proportional to temperature

- Pressure stays constant
Show hintHide hint
Think about hot air expanding.
4Question 4.

- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider how a syringe works.
Question 5.
A gas in a container has a volume of 2L at 300 K. If the temperature is raised to 600 K, find the new volume at constant pressure.
