2. 2 Boyles Law Boyles Law states that The pressure of a gas is inversely related to its volume when T and n are constant. If volume decreases, the pressure increases. Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

3. 3 In Boyles Law The product P x V is constant as long as T and n do not change. P 1 V 1 = 8.0 atm x 2.0 L = 16 atm L P 2 V 2 = 4.0 atm x 4.0 L = 16 atm L P 3 V 3 = 2.0 atm x 8.0 L = 16 atm L Boyles Law can be stated as P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 (T, n constant) PV Constant in Boyles Law

4. 4 Solving for a Gas Law Factor The equation for Boyles Law can be rearranged to solve for any factor. P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 Boyles Law To obtain V 2, divide both sides by P 2. P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 P 2 P 2 P 1 V 1 = V 2 P 2

5. 5 PV in Breathing In inhalation, The lungs expand. The pressure in the lungs decreases. Air flows towards the lower pressure in the lungs. Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

6. 6 PV in Breathing In exhalation Lung volume decreases. Pressure within the lungs increases. Air flows from the higher pressure in the lungs to the outside. Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

8. 8 Freon-12, CCl 2 F 2, is used in refrigeration systems. What is the new volume (L) of a 8.0 L sample of Freon gas initially at 550 mm Hg after its pressure is changed to 2200 mm Hg at constant T? 1. Set up a data table Conditions 1Conditions 2 P 1 = 550 mm HgP 2 = 2200 mm Hg V 1 = 8.0 LV 2 = (predict smaller V 2 ) Calculation with Boyles Law ?

9. 9 2. Because pressure increases, we predict that the volume will decrease. Solve Boyles Law for V 2 : P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 V 2 = V 1 P 1 P 2 V 2 = 8.0 L x 550 mm Hg = 2.0 L 2200 mm Hg pressure ratio decreases volume Calculation with Boyles Law (Continued)
