Identify the gas law, write
the given, unknown,
formula, solution, and
answer.
A. A 40.0 L tank of ammonia has a pressure of 12.7
kPa. Calculate the volume of the ammonia if its
pressure is changed to 8.4 kPa while its temperature
remains constant.
BOYLE’S LAW
Solution: V2= P1VI/P2
Given: V1 = 40.0L V2 = ? = 12.7kPa(40.0L)
P1 = 12.7kPa P2 = 8.4kPa
8.4kPa
Unknown: V2 = ? = 508/ 8.4

Formula: P1V1 = P2V2

P1V1 = P2V2 Answer: 60.48L

P2 P2
P1V1 = V2
P2
B. A gas occupies 900.0 mL at a temperature of 27.0 °C.
What is the volume at 132.0 °C?
CHARLES LAW

Given: V1 = 900.0mL V2 = ? Solution: V2 = V1T2/T1

T1 = 300K T2= 405K

Unknown: V2 = ? = 900.0mL(405K)

Formula: V1T2 = V2T1 300K

V1T2 = V2T1 = 364,500/300
T1 T1
V1T2 = V2 Answer: 1215mL
T1
C. Maybelline Cousteau’s backup oxygen tank reads
900 mmHg while on her boat where the temperature is
27oC. When she dives down to the bottom of an
unexplored methane lake on a recently-discovered
moon of Neptune, the temperature will drop down to –
183oC. What will the pressure in her backup tank be at
that temperature? (270 mmHg)
GAY-LUSSAC’S LAW
Given: P1 = 900mmHg P2 = ? Solution: P2= P1T2/T1
T1 = 300K T2= 90K

Unknown: P2 = ? = 900mmHg(90K)
300K
Formula: P1T2= P2T1
= 81000/ 300
P1T2= P2T1
T1 T1
P2= P1T2
Answer: 270 mmHg
D. If 22.5 L of nitrogen at 748 mm Hg are compressed
to 725 mm Hg at constant temperature, what is the
new volume?
BOYLE’S LAW Solution: V2= P1V1/P2

Given: V1 = 22.5L V2 = ? = 748mmHg(22.5L)

P1 = 748mmHg P2 =725mmHg 725mmHg
= 16,830/ 725
Unknown: V2 = ?

Formula: P1V1 = P2V2 Answer: 23.21L

P1V1 = P2V2
P2 P2
P1V1 = V2
P2
E. A gas is heated from 263.0 K to 298.0 K and the
volume is increased from 24.0 liters to 35.0 liters by
moving a large piston within a cylinder. If the original
pressure was 1.00 atm, what would the final pressure
be?
COMBINED GAS LAW Solution: P2= P1V1T2/V2T1
= 1.00 atm(24.0L)(298.0K)
Given: V1 = 24.0L V2 = 35.0L
P1 = 1.00atm P2 = ? 35.0L( 263.0K)
T1 = 263.0K T2 = 298.0K = 6312/ 10,430
Unknown: P2 = ? Answer: 0.78atm

Formula: P1V1T2 = P2V2T1

P1V1T2 = P2V2T1
V2T1 V2T1
P1V1T2= P2
