ROBERT BOYLE
The relationship between volume and
pressure was first stated by Robert
Boyle during the 16th century.
ELABORATE

ROBERT BOYLE
He performed an experiment and found out that as
the pressure increases, the volume decreases. He
finally concluded that the volume of gas is inversely
proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.
ELABORATE

This can be expressed in an equation: v α at constant T

and n
Where:
v = volume;
P = pressure;
T = temperature and;
n = amount of gas
ELABORATE

It can also be read as: At constant temperature,

the volume occupied by a fixed amount of gas
is directly proportional to the reciprocal of
pressure.

Let us try to compute the value of V x P in table

Trial Volume(L) Pressure(at VxP
m)
1 2.0 10.00
2 4.0 5.00
3 8.0 2.50
4 16.0 1.25
ELABORATE

Let us apply the equation you learned about

Boyle's Law. Since volume and pressure of gas
can be varied. Let P₁ and V₁ be the initial
pressure and volume respectively and P ₂ and
V₂ be the final pressure and volume
respectively.

Now let us try to solve problem:

The inflated balloon that slipped from the hand of Ken
has a volume of 0.50L at sea level (1.0 atm) and it reached
a height of approximately 8km where the atmosphere
pressure is approximately 0.33 atm. Assuming that the
temperature is constant, compute for the final volume of
the balloon.

Have you observed a fish in the aquarium?

Why does the bubbles get bigger and
bigger as it rises?
REVIEW:

Solve for 2 mins.

The pressure of a gas is found to be
0.83 atm. Express this in mmHg.
Solve for 2 mins.
The pressure of a gas is found to be 0.83 atm. Express this in
mmHg.

Solution: 1 atm = 760 mmHg

P = 0.83 atm x 760mmHg
1 atm
P = 630.8 mmHg

:
In a ¼ sheet of paper, complete
the following statement: (increase,
decrease)
If there is a/an _ in the pressure
of a gas, there will be a/an
in
its volume. If there is a/an
in the pressure, there will be a/an
in its volume.

Compute for the final volume.

A sample of hydrogen gas has a

volume of 34 L at a pressure of
750 t o r r . What will be the
volume of the gas if the pressure
is increased to 760 torr?

Compute for the final pressure.

A sample of hydrogen gas has a

volume of 5L at a pressure of
750 t o r r . What will be the
pressure of the gas if the volume
is increased to 10 L?
