The ideal gas law is represented by PV = nRT. As volume is held constant

Question

and the temperature increases, how would the pressure be expected to change? (1 point)
• It would increase.
• It would decrease.
• It would become zero.
• It would remain constant.

Answer 1

According to the ideal gas law \( PV = nRT \), if the volume (\( V \)) is held constant and the temperature (\( T \)) increases, the pressure (\( P \)) would be expected to increase. This is because the relationship between pressure and temperature at constant volume is directly proportional.

Therefore, the correct answer is: • It would increase.
