Gas Laws Review Sheet Answers Reno

The document summarizes key concepts about gas laws through examples and calculations. It defines the basic gas laws including Boyle's law, Charles' law, and Gay-Lussac's law. It then provides examples to demonstrate how each law can be used to calculate changes in pressure, volume, or temperature when one variable is held constant. The document also reviews concepts like standard temperature and pressure, how to convert between pressure units, and the use of the ideal gas law and combined gas law to calculate moles of gas and changes in volume.

Behavior of Gases Test Review

1. Fill the following table of the basic gas laws.


Gas Law Equation Variable held Acronym
constant
Boyle’s Law P1V1 = P2V2 Temperature BaT

Charle’s Law V1 = V2 Pressure CaP


T1 T2
Gay Lussac’s Law P1 = P2 Volume GLoVe
T1 T2

2. What does ideal gas law allow you to calculate that the other gas laws do not? moles

3. What is the device that measures atmospheric pressure? barometer

4. Describe the following effects of a gas


a. If temperature is held constant, what happens to the volume if pressure is increased?
If pressure is increased, the volume decreases

b. At a fixed volume, what happens to the particles if temperature is decreased? (i.e. do they
move faster or slower?) What happens to pressure?
Particles move slower as the temperature is decreased and the pressure decreases

c. At a fixed pressure, what happens to the volume of a gas if temperature is increased?


The volume increases as the temperature increases

5. What is the standard temperature and pressure? (STP)


Standard temperature = 273 K Standard pressure = 1 atmosphere

6. How many liters does one mole of a gas occupy at STP?

1 mole = 22.4 Liters @ STP

7. Convert 0.56 atm to mmHg


0.56 atm x 760 mmHg = 425.6 mmHg
1 atm
8. Convert 790 mmHg to kPa
790 mmHg x 1 atm x 101.3 kPa = 105 kPa
760 mmHg 1 atm
9. Convert -22.6 °C to Kelvin

K = °C + 273 K = -22.6 + 273 = 250.4 K


Calculations. For all of the questions, identify the gas law in the blank AND show your work!! Circle
your answer.

10. ________Boyles Law________ At constant temperature, if the pressure of a sample of Argon is 3.4 atm
in a 400ml container, what is the new pressure if volume is decreased to 50 mL?

P2 = P1V1 P2 = 3.4 x 400 P2 = 27.2 atm


V2 50

11. _________Charles’ Law________ The volume of a gas is 560ml at 45.0oC 318K, if the temperature is
increased to 67.0oC 340K without changing the pressure, what is the new volume?

V2 = V1T2 V2 = 560 x 340 V2 = 599mL


T1 318

12. _________Gay Lussac’s Law_________ If the temperature is -6.0oC 267 K and the pressure is 1.6atm,
what is the pressure of the gas when the temperature warms to 16oC 289 K? Volume is constant.

P2 = P1T2 P2 = 1.6 x 289 P2 = 1.73 atm


T1 267

13. ___Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures__ Four samples of gas have a total pressure of 2.4 atm. If Gas A
has a pressure of 0.8 atm, gas B has a pressure of 0.6 atm, gas C has a pressure of 0.4 atm. What is the
pressure of gas D?

PTOTAL = P1 + P2 + P3 … 2.4 = 0.8 + 0.6 + 0.4 + PGAS D PGAS D = 0.6 atm

14. ________OMIT_______What is the pressure of a gas if the volume is 22.4 L at STP?

15. ______Ideal Gas Law______How many moles of N2 are present if the pressure is 1.4 atm at a volume of
67 L and temperature is 56 oC 329 K.

n = PV n= 1.4 x 67 n = 3.47 moles


(RT) (0.0821 x 329)

16. ___Combined Gas Law____A toy balloon has an internal pressure of 1.05 atm and a volume of 5.0 L. If
the temperature where the balloon is released is 20 oC 293 K, what will happen to the volume when
the balloon rises to an altitude where the pressure is 0.65 atm and the temperature is -15 oC 258 K?

V2 = P1V1T2 V2 = 1.05 x 5.0 x 258 V2 = 7.11 L


(T1P2) (293 x 0.65)
