Concept 3 - Gas Laws

The document explains the relationships between temperature, pressure, and volume of gases through various gas laws. It covers Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law, illustrating how changes in one variable affect the others under constant conditions. Examples and demonstrations are provided to clarify these concepts.

Pressure & Gas Laws

1
Relating Temperature & Pressure
(at a constant volume)
•If the temperature increases, the added thermal energy
causes the particles to push harder on the inside surface of
the container… this causes the pressure to increase.
•If the temperature decreases, the pressure decreases.
•Example: leaving a basketball outside on a cold night causes
the ball to go flat

2
Relating Pressure and Volume
(at a constant Temperature)
•BOYLES LAW – As pressure is increased volume will decrease, and
conversely; if the pressure is decreased, the volume will increase

Boyles Law (Pressure goes up Volume goes down @ constant temperature)

Pressure is inversely proportional to


the volume 3
Example Boyles Laws
•If a diver blows a bubble at a depth of 10m, as the bubble
rises its volume will increase.
•P1(V1)=P2(V2)

Relating Volume & Temperature
(at a constant Pressure)
• Charles Law- As the temperature increases the
volume will also increase; conversely, as the
temperature decreases the volume will also
decrease.

Charles Law (Temp goes up Volume goes up @ constant pressure)

Temperature is directly proportional


to volume. 6

Gay-Lussac’s Law
(volume remains constant)
• Gay-Lussac’s Law – pressure increase, temperature increases
• EX. When temperature outside rises, tire pressure rises
• EX. If a pressurized container that holds gases are heated, the
containers may explode.
• P1 = P2
