Okay, so to figure out the relationship, derive it from the equation PV=nRT. In this, P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, r is the universal gas constant, and T is temperature. I recommend graphing pressure versus number of gas particles to see the relationship, but I would say it is probably a direct proportion. Hope this helped! :)

What happens to the temperature increase the number of particles what happens to the pressure?

Increasing the temperature the number of particles remain constant and the pressure increase.


Boyle's Law shows an inverse relationship between?

The inverse relationship between pressure and volume of gases such that as pressure increases, volume decreases by the same fraction of change; Temperature and number of molecules remain constant.


How does increasing the number of particles in a contained gas affect its pressure?

It increases proportionally. This means that if you double the ammount of particles, the pressure doubles.


What is the relationship between energy and temperature change?

When heat is transferred in a space the average energy of the particles - the temperature of the substance - is affected, by increasing or decreasing. The change in temperature depends on the number of particles affected.


Does the number of particles in a gas affect pressure?

Yes, it is normal.


Does the number of particles affect the pressure of a gas?

Yes, it is normal.


What would happen to the pressure in the container if the number particles were tripled?

The pressure is higher (x 3).


What happens to temperature and number particles as the volume increases?

Although it isn't always accurate - especially at high pressures - the ideal gas law is a good, simple way of looking at the general relationship between pressure, volume, temperature and total number of particles in a gas. According to the Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of particles, R is the ideal gas constant , and T is absolute temperature. If the system is closed, then by definition the number of particles remains the same even if volume changes. If the system is NOT closed, then the question is not sufficiently constrained to predict what will happen to the number of particles. Assuming a closed system, if the volume increases then either the pressure must decrease or the temperature increase (or both). If pressure is held constant, the temperature must increase to keep the pressure stable. If the pressure is allowed to fall, the temperature may actually remain the same. If the process is adiabatic, both the pressure and the temperature will decrease (for most gases - hydrogen and helium have a range where they actually heat up as they expand)


What would cause the pressure of a gas to increase?

An increase in temperature or a decrease in volume would call the pressure to increase. Apex- increasing the number of gas particles


Why does lowering the pressure make there less collisions?

Pressure is due to particles colliding with the walls of the container in which the system is encompassed. Therefore, for a lower pressure (with the same number of particles), the particles would have to collide less frequently with the container walls.
