Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the volume of a gas and its temperature, in Kelvin, assuming pressu
re is held constant? The relationship is inversely proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship is inversely proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume decreases in the same way.
The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume decreases in the same way.
The relationship is inversely proportional; as temperature increases, volume decreases in the same way.
The relationship is inversely proportional; as temperature increases, volume decreases in the same way.
The relationship between volume and temperature at constant pressure is expressed in this statement:
The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship between the volume of a gas and temperature its temperature is defined by Charles Law. This law state that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure. It is illustrated mathematically thus:
V ∝ T or
V/T = constant
For example, if a balloon is filled with gas and placed in a cooling van, the nylon will reduce in size. But if it is heated up, the nylon will expand.
Therefore, option B correctly describes the relationship between volume and temperature at constant pressure.
The process described in the statement is known as urbanization. Urbanization discusses how individuals moved from the countryside to the cities for economic opportunities. These economic opportunities were made possible by the inventions developed during the Industrial Revolution. Inventions like interchangeable parts allowed for companies to mass produce goods for the American public.
