affect of volume on pressure?

[jonathan chi 1J]

When volume increases, does that mean pressure increases or decreases?

[Fiona H 2E]

The two are inversely related. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases and visa versa.

[Neelaj Das 3I]

As volume decreases, pressure increases because the gas becomes more compresses so it has a higher collision rate and thus a higher pressure.

[Gabi_Maldonado_1B]

There is an inverse relationship between Volume and Pressure. This is evident in the PV=nrT equation and can be tested. As pressure increases, volume will decrease and vise verse.

[Benjamin Nguyen 1J]

If volume increases, pressure will decrease. They are inversely related by Boyle's law, P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

[Maddie Klee 3K]

Pressure and volume are inversely related which means that when volume decreases, pressure increases and vice versa.

[Celine_Nguyen_3K]

The two are inversely proportional, so when volume increases, pressure decreases, and concentration also decreases. When volume decreases, that indicates that pressure and concentration increase.

[Sammy Liu]

When volume increases, the the pressure would decrease. They are inversely proportional, meaning that when one increases, the other decreases (assuming nothing else about the system changes).

Hope this helps!

[joshua_quinn_1C]

When volume increases, the pressure decreases. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. In other words, the two are inversely related.

[Erin Chin 1L]

Volume and pressure are inversely related through Boyle's law, therefore, when volume increases, pressure will decrease.

[Milan Vognarek 1A]

The two are inversely related, as stated by Boyle's law. This makes physical sense since reducing the volume that a gas occupies results in the particles of the gas striking the walls of the container more frequently, leading to greater pressure.

[Julie Mai 1K]

Hello!

When volume increases, the pressure will decrease and when the volume decreases, the pressure will increase.

[Omer_Abdelrahim_1B]

They are inversely related, so as a result you can expect them to have opposite effects on the equilibrium when given certain conditions.

[Bailey Herbert 2L]

When volume increases, it means you have more space for the same amount of gas within the space. Therefore, the particles will have more space to move around and will be less tightly packed. This is the same as saying there is less pressure. So when you increase the volume you end up with decreased pressure.

[Matthew Vu 3C]

Pressure decreases when volume increases

[Heba Bounar 3K]

Hi! When volume increases, pressure decreases. When volume decreases, pressure increases. They are inversely related. Think about how if something is in a tighter space, there is more pressure than in something with more space. Hope that helps!

[Alexandra Gill]

as volume increase, pressure decreases. pressure and volume have an inversely proportional relationship.

[Nicole Ton 3C]

When volume increases, then pressure decreases. We can see this in the ideal gas law PV=nRT. When all other conditions (n, R, and T) are kept the same, we can see that P and V are inversely related. So if volume increases and the value of nRT is the same, in order for the equation PV=nRT to remain true, pressure must decrease.

[daniellediem1k]

volume and pressure have an inverse relationship!

[Isabella Perez Dis3L]

Hi! Volume and pressure have an inverse relationship, therefore when volume increases, pressure decreases and vice versa.

[SofiaMammaro-1K]

When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

This is shown by the following equation - which is often called Boyle’s law. It is named after 17th century scientist Robert Boyle.

P1V1 = P2V2

[Ivy Vo Dis 1C]

Volume and pressure have an inverse relationship. When the volume of a container increases, the pressure inside of that container decreases. This is because the molecules now have more room to be far apart from each other (less collisions). When the volume of a container decreases, the pressure inside of that container increases. This is because the molecules have less room and more collisions are occurring.

[Katryn Heine 3A]

Think of it like this- when the volume is increasing that means the space that the gas is in is getting larger, so the particles are less condensed, meaning a lower pressure. So when there is a larger volume, there is a lower pressure. The two are inversely related.

[905565862]

When volume increases, pressure decreases!

[Isha Tripathi 2F]

When volume decrease the pressure will increase, but when volume increases pressure will decrease.

[Eric Sun 2G]

As volume decreases, pressure increases due to the ideal gas law where PV = nRT. This indicates that pressure and volume are inversely proportional and so if one increases, the other must decrease.

[RCortez_1A]

When volume increases, pressure will decrease. When volume decreases, pressure will increase.

[Kathryn Heinemeier 3H]

Since the two and inversely related when volume increases, pressure decreases and Vice versa

[Darren Apostol 2L]

Volume increases -> molecules less crowded b/c more space to spread out -> pressure decreases.

[Jessica Sun 2I]

Volume and pressure are inversely related meaning that when volume increases, pressure decreases and vice versa. This can be seen through PV=nRT because nRT are constant.

[Vashe Sundar 3H]

Volume and pressure are inverse of one another. This means that when one decreases, the other increases.

[HaleyC 2F]

The pressure increases because of the inverse relationship between pressure and volume.

[Madison Kiggins 1E]

Hi, volume and pressure are inversely related. This means that as volume goes up, pressure goes down, and as volume goes down pressure goes up. In more conceptual terms, more volume means that the molecules have more room to move around and less collisions will occur, meaning the gas is less condensed and there is lower pressure. On the other hand, less volume means there is less room for the molecules to move around, more collisions occur, and the gas is more condensed, which all equates to there being a higher level pressure.

[Samantha Quevedo 2L]

Pressure and volume are inversely related so when pressure increases, volume decreases and vice versa.

[Mark_Botros_1D]

Furthermore, to add to the discussion, if you add an inert gas to the system, even though pressure would increase, there would be no change in the volume of where the gases are contained, and the partial pressure of each gas would not change. Since inert gases are unreactive, there will be no effect upon the current equilibrium state.

[Mahli Martinez 2I]

The two values have an inverse relationship. When volume increases, pressure decreases, and vice versa.

[Joellen 1B]

When volume increases, this causes concentration to decrease which then causes pressure to decrease.

[305723807]

when volume increases pressures decrease

[305723807]

when volume increases pressures decrease

[505734174]

when volume increases, the pressure decreases because the gas molecules have more space to spread out. The two are inversely related.

[Mahika Saoji 3K]

Hi! To keep it simple, when volume increases the pressure decreases. They have an inverse relationship. I hope that helped!

[Gianna Sciole 2F]

when the pressure increases, the volume decreases and vice versa. this is because they have an inverse relationship.

[Alekhya_Pantula_2E]

Volume and pressure are inversely related, so when volume decreases, pressure increases and when volume increases, pressure decreases.

[Mekenna Faulkner]

When the volume increases the pressure decreases since the gas has more room to move around freely without needing to put as much pressure on the confinement.

[605607825]

Hello,
When volume increases, the pressure will decrease. Additionally, when the volume decreases, the pressure will increase. When pressure increases, it is more compressed and there is a higher rate of collision. I hope this helped!

[Joelle Tran 1K]

Pressure decreases!

[405509920]

Volume and pressure have an inverse relationship. So when volume increases the pressure decreases, and while volume decreases the pressure increases. Think of lowering volume as smushing the same amount of something into a smaller container, pressure is increased because you have to compact things more tightly.

[tashyavakil 2K]

When the volume decreases, pressure increases. Think of it like trying to fit the same molecules of gas into a tinier space.

[Samantha Toscano 2C]

The pressure will decrease if volume increases since they have an inverse relationship.

[Matthew Nguyen 2F]

More space means more area for particles to spread out and not collide. Less collisions means less force, which ultimately means less pressure. So increase the volume, the pressure decreases.

[Helen Ringley 2E]

Remember that this really is only relevant for gasses. It is very hard to change the pressure of a solid or liquid so we only rally consider pressure when it comes to gasses. But the two are inversely related.

[Evan L 2B]

When volume increases, pressure will decrease because you have created more space. This means gas atoms don't have to be packed as tightly and therefore there is less pressure.

[Divya Mehta 2K]

As evident by the PV=nrT equation, pressure and volume possess an inverse relationship. The increase in one causes a decrease in the other, and vice versa.

[605733348]

PV = nRT

[Sarah Hong 2K]

When volume increases, pressure decreases. And when volume decreases, pressure increases. It's an inverse relationship.

[Jillian Sarquiz- 2B]

As volume increases, the pressure decreases. Pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

[Maddie Klee 3K]

Great question! Volume and pressure are inversely related meaning that if volume decreases, pressure will increase. If volume increases, then pressure will decrease.

[Collin Le 3I]

Volume and pressure have an inverse relationship. When volume increases, pressure decreases. This can be seen in the Boyles law as well as the PV=nRT equation.

[Eszter Kovacs 1A]

when volume increases pressure decreases.

[Ruben Adamov 1E]

When volume increases, the pressure decreases. Likewise if the volume decreases the pressure increases. The two are inversely related.

[Joellen 1B]

When volume increases, the pressure decreases because the atoms will be less packed since there is more space. Furthermore, if volume decreases, pressure will increase for the same reasons.

[Lindsey Walter 3E]

Volume and pressure and inversely proportional, therefore as volume goes up, pressure will go down and as volume goes down, pressure will go up.

[Nishan Reddy 3K]

When volume increases, this means that there is more "space" for the molecules to move around, alleviating the amount of pressure caused by the collisions between molecules and their containers. Thus, more volume means less pressure (inversely related).

[Dillon Taing 3H]

When considering a gas in a closed system, the volume and pressure of the gas are inversely proportional by Boyle's law of P1V1=P2V2. This is due to a smaller volume having more collisions of the molecules per unit area, so the pressure is larger.

[Amaris Cagungun 1F]

They are inversely related - as volume increases, pressure decreases and as pressure increases, volume decreases

[Alexander Moroz 1B]

When volume increases, there is more space for molecules to move around, and so they do not bump into each other or their surroundings with as much force, so pressure decreases. P and V are inversely related to the opposite is true as well.

[Caitlyn Lo 2F]

Because volume and pressure are inversely related, this means that as the volume increases, the pressure decreases and vice versa where if the volume decreases, the pressure increases

[Rebecca Preusch 2C]

when volume increases, pressure decreases

[rachelsjordan 1K]

Volume and pressure are inversely related

[Kainath Kamil Dis 2K]

When volume increases, pressure decreases, and vice versa

[Alex Luong 3H]

They are inversely related. If one increases the other will decrease. If you rearrange the ideal gas law for pressure or volume, it'll be easier to see.

[Michelle Argueta 1E]

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional which means that when volume increase, pressure decreases; when volume decreases, pressure increases.

[Nyah Zhang 1E]

Volume and pressure are inversely related. If volume increases, pressure will decrease and vice versa.

[Natalie Quilala 1I]

When volume increase, pressure will end up decreasing, as pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

[Benicio Rivera 1F]

When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

[Allen Mayo 1E]

There is an inversely proportional relationship to volume and pressure. When volume increases, pressure decreases and vice-versa.

[405479701]

When volume increases, pressure decreases. When volume decreases, pressure increases.

[HaleyC 2F]

Pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

[Sean Basu 2B]

When volume increases, pressure decreases; when volume decreases, pressure increases. They're inversely related to each other.

[Jelix Tsan 2H]

When volume increases, pressure will decrease. The opposite is said for when volume decreases. Hope this helps!

[Matthew Li 1B]

pressure decreases

[Claire Kim 1F]

When volume increases, does that mean pressure increases or decreases?

Since volume and pressure are on the same side of the PV=nRT equation, this is true: if volume increases, pressure decreases and if volume decreases, pressure increases.

[Marie Khijniak 2E]

Hi!
When volume increases, this means pressure decreases (think more space, so less things constantly interacting and pressing on each other = less pressure).
Hope this helps!

[Charlie Gravereaux]

Yes, exactly that. We can show this relationship in the equation PV=nRT. If nothing else changes, an increase in pressure means that volume would have to decrease, as they are both on the left hand side, and vice versa.. This proves their inverse relationship.

[Alekhya_Pantula_2E]

Pressure and volume and inversely related, therefore if volume were to increase, pressure would decrease. If volume were to decrease, pressure would increase.

[Ivan_Tang_2G]

These two variables play against each other. If volume increases the pressure decreases because there is a less square inch of pressure thus decreasing since there is an increase in space to compress.

[305701527]

When volume increases, pressure decreases. This is because they have an inverse relationship which is proved by Boyle's law. This is only true in a closed system. This can be seen in the equation P1V1=P2V2 which shows their inverse relationship because as the the new volume(V2) increases compared to the old volume(V1), this will cause P2 to decrease compared to P1.

[Saatvika Nair]

When the pressure increases, the volume decreases. When the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

I like to think about it this way -
the ideal gas equation is PV = nRT. Thus, P = (nRT)/V. If volume increases, the denominator would get bigger, right? And assuming that the other conditions stay the same (n and T), P would naturally be smaller because the denominator is larger. Conversely, if the volume decreases, the denominator gets smaller, and P would naturally increase. Hope that helps!

[Helen Ringley 2E]

They have an inverse relationship so when volume increases then pressure decreases. This is assuming that the contents of the container are constant and there is not mass added or removed.

[Allison Budwig-2B]

Hi! Just to add on to what everyone else has been saying, whenever I'm curious about the relation between two terms, I always look at the equations! In this case, PV=nRT would be the equation. To find Pressure we would divide by Volume, thus showing that P and V have an inverse reaction. So if V increases, P decreases, etc.

[Michelle Gong]

Hi Jonathan!

When pressure decreases, volume will increase and vice versa because they are proportional. PV = nRT.

Hope this helps :)

[Kelly McFarlane]

When volume increase, pressure decreases. This is known as an inverse relationship.

[Anish_Marripati_2F]

There's an inverse relationship. When volume increases, pressure decreases and vice versa.

[Esther Kim]

If Volume increases, pressure decreases
If Volume decreases, pressure increases

[405745446]

The pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume. Meaning that when pressure is increased, volume decreases. This becomes evident when thinking about how, with an increase in volume, the molecules have more space to move around, therefore, more space in between molecules meaning pressure is less.

[RobinFong_2B]

there's an inverse relationship. By that logic pressure and entropy are also inversely related since volume and entropy have a direct relationship.

[Lindsey Walter 3E]

Pressure and Volume have an inverse relationship, as seen in the equation PV=nRT. Therefore, as P increases, V will decrease and vice versa.

[Ameerah Hameed 3B]

If volume were to increase, pressure would then decrease. This is because both volume and pressure are inversely related due to Boyle's Law.

[kaylasaens2A]

According to Boyle's Law, P1V1 = P2V2. This means that the relationship between pressure and temperature is inversely proportional.

[Miranda Hess 3I]

There's an inverse relationship between volume and pressure so when you increase volume, you reduce pressure. You can see this from PV=nRT because everything on the right side stays constant.
