The Ideal Gas Law — Unit test

Question 9 • LA-Chemistry A

Which quantity is held constant when working with Boyle’s, Charles’s, and Gay-Lussac’s laws?

Answer
A
volume
B
moles
C
pressure
D
temperature

Explanation

Boyle’s, Charles’s, and Gay-Lussac’s laws each describe how two gas properties change while the amount of gas stays the same. Thus, the quantity held constant is the number of moles. The other properties—pressure, volume, and temperature—vary depending on which law is being used.
