RobertBoyle - the English scientist who made accurate observations on the relationship of pressure and volume.
Boyle's law states that at a constant temperature, the volume of gas is inverselyproportional to its pressure.
atm - the SI standard unit of pressure.
In the equation for Boyle's Law, P1 stands for: initialpressure
What is constant when using the Boyle's Law?
Temperature
When pressure on a gas goes down, what happens to its volume?
rises
In the equation for Boyle's Law, V2 stands for: finalvolume
What is the equivalent value of 1 atmosphere (1 atm) in Pascal(Pa)?
101,325Pa
A 2.75 L sample of dry air in a cylinder exerts a pressure of 3.00 atm at 30 °C. Without changing the temperature, a piston is moved until the pressure in the cylinder is reduced to 1.00 atm. What is the final volume of the gas?
8.25 L
If the pressure of a confined gas is doubled while the temperature remains constant, what change would be observed in the volume?
It would be half as large.
A gas at a pressure of 658 mm Hg is held in a container with a volume of 595 mL. The volume of the container is then increased to 1,065 mL without a change in temperature. What is the new pressure of the gas?
368mmHg
Two hundred twenty-five cubic centimeter (225 cm³) of a gas is contained in a vessel under a pressure of 800 mmHg. What would be the new volume of the gas if the pressure is changed to 1000 mmHg? Assume that the temperature remains constant.
180cm³
What gas law does the graph shows?
Boyle'sLaw
1atm - the standard pressure.
P1V1=P2V2 - the mathematical statement of Boyle's Law.
