Example If water is used in place of Hg in barometer, what should be the min.
height of barometer tube to measure normal Patm.
 U-Tube Manometers

Manometers are devices used to measure the pressure of a gas in an

experiment.
U-Tube Manometers - Closed End Type
U-Tube Manometers - Open End Type

 Boyle’s Law (P - V Relationship)

On the basis of his experiments, Robert Boyle reached to the conclusion that at
constant temperature, the pressure of a fixed amount (i.e., number of moles n) of
gas varies inversely with its volume.

Example Arrange the temperatures T1, T2 and T3 in decreasing order

(a) T1 > T2 > T3

(b) T2 > T3 > T1
(c) T3 > T2 > T1
(d) T1 = T2 = T3
Example Arrange the temperatures T1, T2 and T3 in decreasing order

(a) T1 > T2 > T3

(b) T2 > T3 > T1
(c) T3 > T2 > T1
(d) T1 = T2 = T3
Example A balloon is filled with hydrogen at room temperature. It will burst if
pressure exceeds 0.2 bar. If at 1 bar pressure the gas occupies 2.27 L
volume, upto what volume can the balloon be expanded?
 Charles’ Law (V - T Relationship)

For a fixed mass of a gas at constant pressure, volume of a gas increases on

increasing temperature and decreases on cooling.

At absolute zero temperature, translational motion (motion from point to point)

ceases.
 Charles’ Law (V - T Relationship)

They found that for each degree rise in temperature, volume

of a gas increases by 1 / 273.15 of the original volume of the gas at 0 °C.

Example Arrange the temperatures p1, p2, p3 and p4 in decreasing order

(a) p1 > p2 > p3> p4

(b) p2 > p3 > p1 > p4
(c) p4> p3 > p2 > p1
(d) p1 = p2 = p3= p4
Example Arrange the temperatures V1, V2, V3 and V4 in decreasing order

(a) V1 > V2 > V3>V4

(b) V2 > V3 > V1> V4
(c) V4> V3 > V2 > V1
(d) V1 = V2 = V3 = V4
Example A gas has a volume of 3.86 L at a temperature of 45°C. What will the volume
of gas be if its temperature is raised to 80°C, while its pressure is kept
constant?
(a) 5.26 L
(b) 4.28 L
(c) 6.25 L
(d) 3.27 L
 Gay–Lussac’s law (P - T Relationship)

At a constant volume, pressure of a xed amount of gas is directly proportional to

the temperature.
Example A thin balloon filled with air at 47°C has a volume of 3 Lt. If on placing it
in a cold room its volume reduces to 2.7 Lt, the temperature of the room
is _______.
