What do you mean by the change of state of matter? Explain: (a) the change of a solid into a liquid at a constant temperature, and (b) the change of a liquid into a gas at a constant temperature.
How do the pressure, temperature, and volume of a gas relate to one another?
If you decrease the volume of a gas to 1/3 its original volume, how much bigger or smaller is the pressure of the gas? If you increase the volume to 5 times its original volume, how much bigger or smaller will be the pressure of the gas?
