Question 9 • * SY2026-27 - 2003340 Chemistry 1 Sem 2 CR

Check all actions that change the constant k.

Answer
A
leaking air from the syringe
B
changing the number of gas molecules
C
changing the temperature
D
changing the pressure
E
changing the volume

Explanation

For a fixed amount of gas at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume satisfy PV = k. The constant k depends on the amount of gas and its temperature, so leaking air or otherwise changing the number of gas molecules changes k, as does changing the temperature. Changing pressure or volume alone changes the gas’s state, not the value of k.
