Suppose a parcel of air has a given temperature,pressure,and density.If the parcel's size remains the same while its temperature increases,then the air pressure inside the parcel will
A) decrease.
B) decrease to but not lower than 1,000 mb.
C) increase.
D) remain constant.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Charles's Law, if the temperature of a gas increases while its size remains constant, its pressure will also increase. This is because the increase in temperature causes the gas molecules to move faster and collide with the parcel's walls more frequently, resulting in an increased pressure. Therefore, the correct choice is (C) increase.
