10. II. The Gas Laws
A.Boyle’s Law (P1V1 = P2V2 )inverse relationship
1.As the volume of a gas increases the pressure decreases (temperature remains constant)
2. Example A sample of gas in a balloon is
compressed from 7.00 L to 3.50 L. The pressure
at 7.00L is 125 KPa. What will the pressure be at
2.50L if the temperature remains constant?
P1 = 125 KPa P2 = X V1 = 7.00L V2 = 3.50L
(125)(7.00) = (X) (3.50)
X = 250.KPa

P = k(1/V)

15. B. Charles’ Law V1 = V2 must use kelvin
T1 T temperature
As the temperature of a gas increases the volume increases (direct relationship)
2. Example A gas sample at 20.0 C occupies
a volume of 3.00 L. If the temperature is raised to
50.0 C, what will the volume be if the pressure
remains constant?
V1 = 3.00L V2 = X T1 = 293K T2 = 323K
3.00 = X X = (3)(323) X = (3)(323)
X = 3.31 L

T1 T2
1. as the temperature increases the pressure
increases when the volume remains constant
2. Example The pressure of a gas in a tank is
4.00 atm at 200.0C. If the temperature rises
rises to 800.0C, what will be the pressure of the
gas in the tank?
P1 = 4.00 atm P2 = X T1 = 473K T2 = 553K
4.00 = X X = (4)(553) X = (4)(553)
X = 4.68 atm

19. D. Combined Gas Law P1 V1 = P2 V2 T1 T2
1. Combines Boyle’s, Charle’s and Gay Lussac’s
2. Example A gas at 70.0KPa and 10.0C fills a
flexible container with an initial volume of 4.00L
If the temperature is raised to 60C and the pressure
is raised to 80.0 KPa, what is the new volume?
P1 = 70.0 KPa P2 = 80.0 KPa V1 = V2 = X
T1 = 283K T2 = 333K
(70.0)(4.00) = (80.0)(X)
X = (33.3)(70.0)(4.00)
(2.83)(80.0) X = 41.2L
