Gas Pressure-factors

Cards (6)

  • equation for Pressure
    Pressure=force/area
    P=F/A
  • Gas pressure is affected by...
    CONCENTRATION
    TEMPERATURE
    VOLUME
  • Volume decreasing=Pressure Increasing
  • Pressure Increases with temperature
  • pressure increases with concentration
  • In flexible containers, increases in temperature or concentration would increase the volume of the container rather than the pressure, but in real life it would probably increase both volume and pressure.(eg a balloon)
