Boyles Law essentials • The product of a pressure and volume of any two sets of conditions at a given temperature is constant: • P1 x V1 = P2 x V2 • 100 kPa @ 1 L = 50 kPa @ 2 L = 200 kPa @ .5L • The two conditions are inversely proportional • P~1/V

A high altitude balloon contains 30 L of He gas at 103 kPa. What is the volume when it gets to an altitude where the pressure is 25 kPa? • Our equation is V1 x P1 = V2 x P2 • 30L x 103 kPa = v2 x 25 kPa • 30 L x 103 kPa 25 kPa • V2 = 124 L V2
Charles’s Law esentials • An increase in the temperature of a gas yields an increase in the volume of a gas • V1/T1 = V2/T2 • 1 L @ 300K = 2 L @ 600k • The two conditions are directly proportional • V~T remember all temperature measurements are in kelvins

A baloon inflated in a room at temperature of 24°C has a volume of 4 L. The balloon is then heated to a temperature of 58°C. What is the new volume if the temperature remains constant? • Our equation is V1/T1= V2 /T2 • 4L /24°C = xL/58°C • 58C x 4L / 24°C = xL wait, we haven’t converted to Kelvins! 331K x 4L = 4.46 L 297K
Gay-Lussac’s Law • The pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature of a gas (in Kelvins) if the volume remains constant • Because these relations are directly related, they obey the formula: • P1/T1 = P2/T2
Sample problemThe gas in an aerosol can may be 103 kPa, meaning it won’t squirt, at 25°C, but if thrown in a fire, the pressure could be quite dangerous. How high is the pressure if the fire is 928°C ?
Sample problemThe pressure in a tire is 198 kPa at the start of a trip at 27°C. At the end of the trip, it is 225 kPa. What is the internal temperature of the tire
Combining the gas laws • Boyles’ Law is • Charles’s Law is • Gay-Lussac’s Law is
Combining the gas laws • Boyles’ Law is P1 x V1 = P2 x V2 • Charles’s Law is V1/T1 = V2/T2 • Gay-Lussac’s Law is P1/T1 = P2/T2
The combined gas law P1 x V1 T1 P2 x V2 T2 If you hold the temperature constant, you have Boyle’s Law If you hold volume constant, you have Gay-Lussac’s Law If you hold the pressure constant, you have Charles’s Law

Practice problems • A gas at 155 kPa and 25C occupies a container with an initial volume of 1 L. By changing the volume, the pressure of the gas increases to 605 kPa as the temperature is raised to 125C. What is the new volume?
Practice problems • A 5 L air sample at a temperature of -50C has a pressure of 107 kPa. What will be the new pressure if the temperature is raised to 102C and the volume expands to 7 L?
Ideal gas law • Up to this point, we have left out another thing that can change pressure, volume and temperature
We have used the combined gas law to find changes in a system when we change conditions such as temperature, pressure or volume. P1 x V1 T1 P2 x V2 T2
But the amount of gas- the number of moles- can change the pressure and volume also • It makes sense that the volume and pressure in a container must be proportional to the number of moles • We can add the term for moles (n) to the combined gas laws that we just looked at : so P1V1/T1 becomes P1V1 / T1n1
P1 x V1 T1 x n1 P2 x V2 T2 x n2 • This shows that the term P x V/ T x n is a constant • This will allow us to find unknowns in a system where we are not changing conditions
P1V1 = T1n1 • This is called the Ideal Gas Law • We need to evaluate this in order to come up with a constant which will make the equation work • We do this at STP • What is STP
We use STP as a starting point • P= 101.3 kPa (one ATM) • V= 22.4 Liters (volume of 1 mole at STP) • N= 1 mole • T= 273K (melting point of ice in K) • The constant, R, = (P x V) / (T x n) or 8.31 (L x kPa) / (K x mol)
The ideal gas law becomes: • PV=nRT • Pressure x volume = # moles x temp x constant • This will allow us to figure any one of the variables in any system if we know the other three

Ideal gas?? • The ideal gas law assumes that gas particles occupy no volume and that there are no attractions between particles. This is never true. • Gases under high pressure and low temperatures turn to liquids. Gases do occupy volume (obviously), and there are attractions (intermolecular forces) as we learned in chapter 10. • Boyle’s law implies that gases are infinitely compressible, but this is not the case
