ACTIVITY TITLE: BOYLE’S LAW

LEARNING TARGET: To perform calculations involving problems applying Boyle’s law

CONCEPT NOTES: Boyle’s law describes the inverse relationship between volume and pressure of a gas at
constant temperature. It is expressed mathematically as, P1V1 =P2V2.

DIRECTION: Solve the following problems by identifying the given data and the unknown.Use the equation
to solve for the unknown. Interpret your answers according to Boyle’s law.

1. A cylinder of compressed gas has a volume of 85 dm3 and a pressure of 984 kPa. What volume would the
gas occupy if allowed to escape into a balloon at a pressure of 125 kPa? Assume that temperature does not
change.

2. At 0° C and 5 atm, a given sample of a gas occupies 75 L. The gas is compressed to a final volume of 30 L at
0° C. What is the final pressure?

3. A sample of a gas has a volume of 20 L at 1.5 atm. What will be the volume of this gas at each of the
following pressures: a) 700 mmHg b) 2 atm, and c) 105 kPa
