What is the V T P relationship in chemistry?

PV /T = nR where n is the number of moles of gas and R is the ideal gas constant. if the amount of gas is constant, pressure and volume are inversely related (because they are multiplied) and that product is directly related to the kelvin temperature. Remove any one and the same analysis is true. Ex: if temperature is constant, remove it from the problem and you still PV, a product so pressure and volume are inversely related.


Is boltzman constant same as gas constant?

They are not the same, but related. From Wikipedia (article "gas constant"): " [The gas constant] is equivalent to the Boltzmann constant, but expressed in units of energy (i.e. the pressure-volume product) per temperature increment per mole (rather than energy per temperature increment per particle)".


How is the Loschimidt's number related to the Avogadro's number?

The Loschmidt constant, NL is related to Avogadro's number, NA by the relationship:NL = p0*NA/(R*T0) wherep0 is the pressureT0 is the thermodynamic temperature andR is the gas constant.


Why you use kelivin in calculation instead of celsius and Fahrenheit?

Kelvin has the advantage that it is an absolute temperature scale - it starts from absolute zero. This simplifies several calculations; for example, in an ideal gas, at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to the absolute temperature. Similarly, calculations related to heat machines are simpler if an absolute temperature scale is used.


If you are to constuct a graph with volume of an horizontal axis and pressure on the vertical axis what will your graph look like?

According to the ideal gas law, pressure times volume is constant. We'll call that constant c. PV=C, P=c/V, so pressure is inversely related to volume, so it would look like the graph y=1/x multiplied by a constant.

Which statement is true regarding a fixed quantity of gas at a constant pressure?

At constant pressure the temperature and the volume of a gas are directly related; this the Charle Law.


How does temperature effect a volume air?

Temperature is not directly tied to volume, its related to pressure. Increasing the temperature will increase the pressure--only if volume is held constant. That is were volume and temperature are related, through pressure. However, if you increase the volume it does not change the temperature.

What happens to the pressure as the volume changes?

Pressure will decrease with (because it is inversely proportianal to) volume, if (and only if!) temperature is held constant.


Charles law states that?

that the temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume at constant pressure. In other words, if you increase the temperature of a gas, its volume will also increase.


What is the relationship between the volume and pressure of a gas when temperature is held constant?

The pressure and volume are related because both are variable of indefinite which means that both are not positive or definite and they tend to vary by the object they are in.


How are temperature air pressure related?

If the temperature of a system is increased, but the volume remains constant, the pressure will increase. If Pressure is increased, then temperature will increase. They are directly proportional, as shown by the combined gas law equation, (V1P1)/T1=V2P2/T2


When the pressure on a gas increases at constant temperature its volume?

decreases


How does pressure affect temperature?

as pressure increases, temperature increases


What is Lussac Law?

A statement, derived by French physicist and chemist Joseph Gay-Lussac (1778-1850), which holds that the pressure of a gas is directly related to its absolute temperature. Hence, the ratio of pressure to absolute temperature is a constant.
