Question 3 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR

A sample of a gas is placed inside a cylinder that is a fixed size. The cylinder is heated as additional gas is added to it. What will most likely happen to the pressure of the gas inside the cylinder?

Answer
A
It will decrease.
B
It will increase.
C
It will not change.

Explanation

The cylinder’s fixed size means the gas volume does not change. Heating raises the gas temperature, and adding gas increases the number of particles; both changes make the pressure rise. Therefore, the pressure will increase, matching choice B.
