Activity Sheet in Charle’s Law

Study the given table of volume and temperature.

Volume Temperature
mm3 O
C
10.0 20
10.3 29
10.7 42
11.0 51
11.5 63
11.9 75
12.4 90
Then answer the following questions:
1. What happens to the volume of gas when the temperature increases?
2. If the temperature decreases, what will happen to the volume of gas?
3. Describe the relationship between the volume and temperature of a gas at a constant pressure.

Solve this Problem by applying the mathematical Formula:

A hot air balloon has an initial volume of 1.50 L at 35 O C. After a while, the hot air balloon is inflated to
expand to 2.0 L without a change in the pressure. What is the new temperature of the hot air balloon?
