What does Boyle's Law describe?
The relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas at constant temperature
According to Boyle's Law, what happens to the pressure of an ideal gas as the size of the container is decreased?
Pressure increases
How does Boyle's Law explain the relationship between pressure and volume?
Inverse proportional
What assumption is needed in applying the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases (KMT) in understanding Boyle's Law?
Gas particles have temperature-independent kinetic energy
How does Boyle's Law affect the volume of an ideal gas when the pressure is increased?
Volume decreases
What causes the pressure a gas exerts on the walls of a container?
The gas particles colliding with the walls
In Boyle's Law, what happens to pressure when the volume of the container is reduced?
Pressure increases
How do lungs utilize Boyle's Law during the breathing process?
Lungs expand to increase pressure for inhalation
What does Boyle's Law state about the relationship between pressure and volume?
They are inversely proportional
How does a bladder pump utilize Boyle's Law to pump air?
By expanding to increase volume and decrease pressure
Explore Boyle's Law - a fundamental principle that explains the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas at constant temperature. Understand how adjusting the size of the container affects the pressure of the gas and how changing the pressure impacts the volume of the container.
