B. Review

“Yesterday, we had discussed what

happens to the particles inside the “Yes, Ma’am!”
container?”

“Alright! As a review, what are the

properties of gases?”

“Yes, Mr./ Ms. ______”

“The properties of gases are diffusion,
compression and expansion.”
“When we say diffusion what happens
to the particles inside the container?” “The particles inside the container are
spreading.”
“What about compression?”
“The materials decrease in size.”
“What about expansion?”
“The materials increase in size.”
“Very good!”

C. Activity

“Since you already know those things,

now we will be dealing a new topic, but
before that let’s have first an experiment.”

“Class, divide yourselves into six

groups.” The students are forming their groups

“I will distribute the materials and

activity procedure. All you have to do is to The students listen to the instruction
follow the steps given in the activity sheet.
You have 5 minutes to finish the activity.”

Procedure
1. The students will place a few
marshmallows in the syringe.
2. Then push the plunger until it touches
the marshmallows.
 3. Covering the tip of the syringe with
their finger, students pull the plunger
up and watch as the marshmallows
expand. Students then return the
marshmallows to their original position,
pull the plunger to the top of the
syringe, cover the tip and push the
plunger down.
4. Students observe how marshmallows
“shrink”
5. Students will answer the questions.
The students perform the experiment

D. Analysis

“What happened to the marshmallows

when you push and pull the plunger of the
syringe?”

“Let’s hear it from group 1” “When we push the plunger the

mallows are compressed, and when we pull
the plunger the mallows expand.”

“Okay! Very good!”

“What about the group 2, what have
you observe?”
“So same thing happen with group 1”
“We observe that when we push the
plunger the mallows are compressed, and
when we pull the plunger the mallows
expand.”

“How about the group 3” “We observe that when we decrease

the volume of occupied by the
marshmallows, the mallows are
compressed and when we increase the
volume the mallows expand.”

“What about in group 4?” “Same thing happen sir.”

“How about the group 5” “We observe that when we decrease

the volume of occupied by the
 marshmallows, the mallows are
compressed and when we increase the
volume the mallows expand.”

“What about in group 6?” “Same thing happen sir.”

“Okay! Very good!”

E. Abstraction

“The activity that you performed today

has something to do with our topic for
today.”

“Do you have any idea about our “Yes, Ma’am it’s all about Boyle’s law”
lesson to be discussed?”

“Yes, correct! We are going to discuss

pressure and volume relationship in
Boyle’s Law. So, please do listen carefully
because at the end of this lesson you are
expected to solve problems involving this
topic.”

(Discussion) The students listen to the discussion

Boyle’s Law was named after chemist and

physicist Robert Boyle, who published the
original law in 1662.

Boyle’s Law states that the volume of a gas

is inversely proportional to its pressure (P) at
constant temperature (T).

In symbol; P∞ 1/V
The students listen to the discussion
The product of pressure and volume is
constant.

In symbol; PV=k
To prove this, let’s have this example.
Volume Pressure VxP
(V) (P)
2.0 10.00
4.0 5.00
8.0 2.50
16.0 1.25

“Who can now complete the data?”

“Yes Mr./ Ms. ______.”

Volume (V) Pressure (P) VxP
2.0 10.00 20
4.0 5.00 20
8.0 2.50 20
16.0 1.25 20

“So based on the data you were able “Yes, Ma’am!”

to verify the meaning of proportionality
constant?”

“Alright! Very good.”

“Let us now apply the equation you

learned about the Boyle’s Law.”

“Since volume and pressure of a gas

can be varied, let P1 and V1 be the initial
pressure and volume respectively. And P2
and V2 be the final pressure and volume
respectively.”

According to Boyle’s law, PV=k

Therefore:

P1V1=k
P2V2=k

Then, P1V1=P2V2
 “Based on the relationship of pressure “Its volume will decrease by 1/2.”
and volume, what do you think will happen
to the volume if pressure of a gas
doubles?”

“Very good!”

“Based also on the relationship of

pressure and volume, in what particular (Varied answer.)
situation can you relate the concept
of pressure and volume relationship?”

“Let us now apply the concept of

Boyle’s Law in solving problem involving
pressure and volume.”

“Let’s have this sample problem.”

“Who wants to read the problem?”

“Yes, Mr./ Ms ______.” A syringe has a volume of 10.0 ccs. The

“Okay thank you Mr./ Ms ______.”
pressure is 1.0 atm. If you plug the end so no
gas can escape, and push the plunger down,
what must be the final volume to be change
the pressure to 3.5 atm?
1

“Who can now solve the problem?”

“Yes, Mr. / Ms. ______.” Solution;

Given
P1= 1.0 atm
V1= 10.0 cm3
P2= 3.5 atm
V2=?
Since final volume is asked. We will derive the
formula of final volume from this equation
P1V1=P2V2

V2= P1V1
P2
 Substitute.
V2= (1.0 atm)(10.0 cm3)
3.5 atm

V2= 10 cm3
3.5
V2= 2.85 cm3

The final volume is 2.85 cm3.

“That’s correct! Very good.”

“Don’t forget to put the unit on the final

answer.”

into six again.”
