    This document discusses gases and Boyle's law. It explains that gases are made up of particles that move quickly and collide with each other and the container. Boyle discovered that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional, such that if pressure increases, volume decreases, and vice versa. The document provides examples to demonstrate how to use Boyle's law formula to calculate volume or pressure given the other variable remains constant.

    CHAPTER 9:

    GASES: THE MOVING


    PARTICLES
    • To fully enjoy and appreciate the deeper parts of the sea, you go to
    the deeper parts of the ocean. So you need a device that allows you
    to breathe underwater and have to deal with the increasing pressure.
    What will happen to your body at this condition?

    BOYLE’S LAW
    • Robert Boyle discovered Boyle’s Law – the Robert Boyle
    first of the gas laws – relating the pressure of (1627-1691)
    a gas to its volume; he established that
    electrical forces are transmitted through a
    vacuum, but sound is not; and he also stated
    that the movement of particles is responsible
    for heat. He was the first person to write
    specific experimental guidance for other
    scientists, telling them the importance of
    achieving reliable, repeatable results.

    remains the same
    size when
    pressure
    decreases and
    volume increases.
    This however, is
    not the same
    when pressure
    increases and
    volume decreases.
    Boyle’s Law
    • The inversely proportional relationship between the pressure and volume of a
    gas.

    Formula:
    P1V1=P2V2
    P1= initial pressure
    V1= final pressure
    P2= initial volume
    V2= final volume
    Sample problem:
    • A cylinder of a scuba tank has a volume of 1500 mL at a pressure of 0.75 atm. What volume of air is
    needed to fill the cylinder to a pressure of 100 atm at constant temperature?
    Given:
    Initial conditions Final conditions
    P1= 0.75 atm P2= 100 atm
    V1= 1500 mL V2= ?
    To find V2, we use the formula: Answer: V2= 11.25 mL
    1.) P1V1=P2V2 3.) V2=
    0.75 atm x 1500 mL
    100 atm
    2.) V2= P1 x V1

    P2
    Sample problem:
    • The air inside a flexible 3.5 L container at a pressure of 115 kPa. What should the volume be increased
    to in order to decrease the pressure to 625 torr?
    Given:
    Initial conditions Final conditions
    P1= 115 kPa = 862.8 torr P2= 625 torr
    V1= 3.5 L V2= ?
    To find V2, we use the formula: Answer: 4.83 L
    1.) P1V1=P2V2 3.) V2=
    862.8 torr x 3.5 L
    625 torr
    2.) V2= P1 x V1

    P2
    • 115 kPa x 625 torr = 862.8 torr
    1 101. 3 kPa
    SUMMARY/
    REFLECTION
    C
    Gases are all around us. Oxygen. Carbon Dioxide. Helium. Nitrogen. These are the gases we
    usually use in our everyday life cycle especially the Oxygen. Oxygen is an example of gas which is
    needed by humans and animals. While Carbon dioxide is the most important component of air
    needed by plants during photosynthesis. Thinking that these tiny particles have a huge and important
    role in this earth. Yet, the remarkable feature of gases is that they appear to have no structure at all.
    They have neither a definite size nor shape. There is a great deal of empty space between particles,
    which have a lot of kinetic energy. The particles move very fast and freely that they always collide
    into one another, causing them to spread out until they are evenly distributed throughout the volume
    of the container. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to
    spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force or what we called pressure,
    on the interior volume of the container.
    To tell more about the behavior and properties of Gases, there is Robert Boyle's law that explains
    with certainty wherein pressure and volume of gas are inversely proportional to one another. So, if
    you push on gas, its volume becomes smaller and the pressure becomes higher. And if its volume
    becomes higher then the pressure becomes smaller.
