V1 = 400 mL P = 200 kPa 1 V2 = ? T1 = T2 P2 = 18,000 kPa “kPa” = “kilopascal” = a unit of pressure “mL” = “milliliter” The air inside a tennis ball in a sinking cruise ship is initially at 200 kPa and occupies 400 mL. What will its volume be when the ship has sunk enough that the pressure has gone up to 18,000 kPa? Assume that the temperature remains constant. = a unit of volume Congratulations. You’ve just TRANSLATED ENGLISH INTO MATH Now you can figure out which FORMULA from the reference sheet to use Skip to answer
V1 = 400 mL P = 200 kPa 1 V2 = ? T1 = T2 P2 = 18,000 kPa P1V1 = P2V2 The air inside a tennis ball in a sinking cruise ship is initially at 200 kPa and occupies 400 mL. What will its volume be when the ship has sunk enough that the pressure has gone up to 18,000 kPa? Assume that the temperature remains constant. In gas math problems that use the combined gas law, whatever remains constant can be crossed out of the equation. If you cross the temperatures out of the combined gas law, you get Boyle’s law.

V1 = 400 mL P = 200 kPa 1 V2 = ? T1 = T2 P2 = 18,000 kPa P1V1 = P2V2 P2 P2 The air inside a tennis ball in a sinking cruise ship is initially at 200 kPa and occupies 400 mL. What will its volume be when the ship has sunk enough that the pressure has gone up to 18,000 kPa? Assume that the temperature remains constant. V2 is the unknown, so we need to isolate V2 so we can solve for it. That means we need to get V2 by itself. V2 has P2 stuck to it, so we need to get rid of P2. We do this by dividing both sides of the equation by P2. P2 is now on the top and the bottom of the right hand side of the equation, so we can cancel them out. Skip to answer
Now that we have V2 all by itself, it’s time to PLUG IN THE NUMBERS V2 = P1V1 P2 Don’t forget to include the units along with the numbers. We’ve got kPa on the top and on the bottom, so they can cancel each other out. V1 = 400 mL P = 200 kPa 1 V2 = ? T1 = T2 P2 = 18,000 kPa P1V1 = P2V2 P2 P2 (200 kPa) (400 mL) V2 = (18,000 kPa) Skip to answer

What will its volume be when the ship has sunk enough that the pressure has gone up to 18,000 kPa? Assume that the temperature remains constant. (200 kPa) (400 mL) V2 = = 4.4 mL = V2 (18,000 kPa) Skip to answer

So far, all the problems have invovled constant temperature The next problem invovles changing temperature, and introduces a few new tricky things that the previous problems didn’t have. Get ready for some new stuff.
5. Professor Cryopithecus pours liquid nitrogen onto a balloon, causing it to shrivel from 480 mL to 60 mL. If the balloon was at 127oC before he poured the liquid nitrogen on the balloon, what temperature must the balloon have had after he poured the liquid nitrogen onto it? Assume constant pressure. V1 = 480 mL V2 = 60 mL P1 = P2 To convert Celsius to kelvins, add 273. T1 = 127oC = (127 + 273)K = 400 K T2 = ? oC Here’s new thing #1. You’re not allowed to plug Celsius temperatures into gas math formulas. T = KEave. Since KE = ½ mv2, KE can never be negative, so T shouldn’t ever really be negative either. Both the Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales can go negative, but Kelvin only goes down to zero, so Kelvin is the only scale appropriate for any math that depends upon the mechanics of kinetic theory. In the kelvin temperature scale, zero really means zero. At zero kelvins, absolute zero, molecules truly stop moving. Skip to answer

If the balloon was at 127oC before he poured the liquid nitrogen on the balloon, what temperature must the balloon have had after he poured the liquid nitrogen onto it? Assume constant pressure. New thing #2: Notice that T2, our unknown, is on the bottom of the fraction. It can’t stay there. We need to flip the equation. New thing #3: Since T1 was originally given in oC, we’d better convert back from Kelvins to Celsius.

15. Space Marine Mario crash-lands his recon cruiser in a molten sulfur lake on uncharted planet PU187, and quickly sinks to the bottom of the lake. In his heavy battle armor, he can take the heat and has plenty of air to breathe, but he can not float to the surface to escape. He realizes that his inflatable life raft can lift him to the top of the lake. He grabs the life raft, blasts a hole in the bottom of the cruiser, and swims out once his vehcile has filled with molten sulfur. Standing on the bottom of the lake, he inflates the liferaft. At the bottom of the lake, he estimates the volume of the liferaft to be 300 L, and the pressure gauge on the raft reads 21 atm, but the liferaft pulls him up toward the surface of the lake before he can read the temperature. At the surface, the pressure gauge on the raft reads 3 atm, his suit’s computer tells him that the temperature of the molten sulfur is 200 K, and the liferaft appears to have a volume of 200 L. What was the temperature of the bottom of the lake? V1 P1 P1 = 21 atm V1 = 300 L P2 T2 P2 = 3 atm V2 T2 = 200 K V2 = 200 L T1 = ? T1 = ? Skip to answer
P1 = 21 atm V1 = 300 L P2 = 3 atm T2 = 200 K V2 = 200 L T1 = ?
