JudyAir pressure affects the bouncing of a Basketball by inflating or deflating it. Higher air pressure makes a basketball bouncier, resulting in more bounces, while lower air pressure reduces the ball's bounce. The correct air pressure for a basketball is usually around 7.5 to 8.5 pounds per square inch (psi).

How does the number of particles affect the pressure of a gas?
Increased density and temperature.
What change will not affect the pressure in a container?
Changing the color of the container will not affect the pressure inside it. Pressure is determined by factors such as temperature, volume, and the number of gas molecules present, not by the container's color.
Does increasing pressure affect reaction rate?
If the pressure increase the number of intermolecular collisions increase and so the reaction rate. This is valid for gases.
Changes in pressure affect which types of reactions?
Changes in pressure typically affect reactions involving gases, where the number of gas molecules changes during the reaction. In reactions with balanced stoichiometry, changing pressure affects equilibrium position, while in reactions involving gases with different stoichiometry, pressure can affect reaction rates.
How does a change in pressure affect the ratio of PV to nRT?
A change in pressure does not affect the ratio of PV to nRT. The ideal gas law equation (PV = nRT) represents a constant relationship between pressure (P), volume (V), number of moles (n), gas constant (R), and temperature (T). Any change in pressure will lead to a corresponding change in volume, temperature, or number of moles to maintain the relationship defined by the ideal gas law.
