Mixed Gas Laws

Front

What is Boyle's Law?

Back

Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature is held constant.

Front

What is the relationship between pressure and volume in Boyle's Law?

Back

Inverse relationship.

Front

What happens to the volume of a gas when the pressure increases?

Back

The volume decreases.

Front

What happens to the volume of a gas when the temperature increases?

Back

The volume increases.

Front

What is Charles's Law?

Back

Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature when pressure is held constant.

Front

What is the formula for Boyle's Law?

Back

P1V1 = P2V2, where P is pressure and V is volume.

Front

What is the formula for Charles's Law?

Back

V1/T1 = V2/T2, where V is volume and T is temperature in Kelvin.

Front

If a gas has a volume of 2.9 L at 3.2 atm, what will its volume be at 4.0 atm?

Back

2.3 L.

Front

A weather balloon has a volume of 35 L at 1.0 atm. What will its volume be at 0.75 atm?

Back

47 L.

Front

What is the effect of temperature on gas volume according to Charles's Law?

Back

As temperature increases, volume increases.
