The equations for the three classic gas laws, Boyle s law, Charles law, and Avogadro s law, can be combined into a single equation called the ideal gas law. 

Which gas law (Boyle s law, Charles law, Avogadro s law, or the combined gas law) would apply in each of the following scenarios Only the variables that change are given. You need to state any terms (P, V, T, or ri) that must remain constant for the gas law you choose to be correct. 

The most important gas laws (Boyle s law, Charles s law, Dalton s law, and the ideal gas law) involve the relationships between pressure (P), volume (V), temperature (T), and number of moles (n) of gas. We are already familiar with the measurement of temperature and quantity from our laboratory experience. Measurement of pressure is perhaps not as obvious. 

The gas laws describe the interdependence of three variables— pressure, volume, and temperature— that determine the behavior of gases. One of the gas laws, Boyle s law, states how gas pressure and gas volume are related. Boyle s law applies to ideal gases, which obey all of the assumptions made by the kinetic theory. With a simple laboratory setup, you can test how well Boyle s law applies to real gases. 

In addition, I give you the sour and bitter details about acids, bases, pHs, and antacids. And I present the properties of gases. In fact, in the gas chapter, you ll see so many gas laws (Boyle s Law, Charles Law, Gay-Lussac s Law, the Combined Gas Law, the Ideal Gas Law, Avogadro s Law, and more) that you might feel like a lawyer when you re done. 

The thermometer may operate either at constant volume, or at constant pressure, since, if the gas obeys Boyle s law, (3 = a. 

If a gas obeys Boyle s law the diminution of potential on isothermal reversible expansion is equal to the diminution of free energy, and both are equal to the maximum work. 

With diminishing pressure these values remain constant, decrease, or increase, respectively, according as the gas obeys Boyle s law (He), or is more (Ne) or less (02) compressible than this requires. 

The equation also serves to calculate the deviation of a gas from Boyle s law ... 

The factor t + 273.2° will be recognized as the absolute temperature T of the gas. And since the ideal gas obeys Boyle s law, the product /Join is constant however pn and cn may vary between themselves. We may thus denote the coefficient /j( i o/273.2° by a single constant symbol, say R. and the ideal gas equation then takes the usual form... 

The British scientist Robert Boyle made many contributions in the fields of medicine, astronomy, physics, and chemistry. However, he is best known for his work on the behavior of gases. In 1662, Boyle found that when the temperature is held constant, the pressure of a trapped amount of gas (any gas) is inversely proportional to its volume. That is, when the pressure of the gas increases, the volume of the gas decreases when the pressure of the gas decreases, the volume of the gas increases. Boyle s Law can be written mathematically as follows ... 

The Boyle temperature is different for different gases. For example, the Boyle temperature for hydrogen is -165 C and for helium it is -240 C. Thus, at -165 C, hydrogen gas obeys Boyle s law for an appreciable range of pressure. However, at any temperature below -165 C, the plot of Z vs P first shows a fall and then a rise as pressure is increased continuously. At a temperature above -165 C, however, Z shows a continuous rise with increase in pressure. 

The Boyle Temperature. As already mentioned, the temperature at which a real gas obeys Boyle s law, is known as the Boyle temperature TB It is given by the expression... 

To determine how closely NH3 gas follows Boyle s law under these conditions, we calculate the value of k (in L atm) for each set of values ... 

Reducing the pressure from 121 kPa to 101 kPa increases the volume of the carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, Boyle s law gives the factor 121 kPa/101 kPa. Because this factor is greater than 1, when it is multiplied by the volmne, the volume increases. Cooling the gas from 117°C to 0.00°C reduces the volume of gas. To apply Charles s law, you must express both temperatures in kelvins. 

Three key relationships exist among the four gas variables—Boyle s, Charles s, and Avogadro s laws. Each of these gas laws expresses the effect of one variable on another, with the remaining two variables held constant. Because gas volume is so easy to measure, the laws are expressed as the effect on gas volume of a change in pressure, temperature, or amount of gas. 

I.—The gas obeys Boyle s law, pv = constant, say, c. We have seen that the work done when a gas expands against any external pressure is represented by the product of the pressure into the change of volume. The work performed during any small change of volume, is... 

This equation tells that when a certain quantity of heat is added to a substance, one part is spent in raising the temperature while the volume changes under constant pressure, and the other part is spent in raising the temperature while the pressure changes under constant volume. For an ideal gas obeying Boyle s law,... 

The deviation of these gases at high pressure from the perfect gas or Boyle s law is also of Interest and must be taken into account. Figure WfP shows the compressibility factor for pure hydrogen, pure nitrogen and 75 per cent hydrogen plus 25 per cent nitrogen for pressures from atmospheric to 1,000 atmospheres. 

Think of a sample of gas ofvolume V contained in a piston (Fig. 10.7). Ifwe push the piston handle inwards, the pressure on the gas exceeds atmospheric pressure and the volume of the gas drops. Boyle s law states that for a fixed mass of gas at a particular temperature... 

Boyle s law At constant temperature the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. Although exact at low pressures, the law is not accurately obeyed at high pressures because of the finite size of molecules and the existence of intermolecular forces. See van der Waals equation. 

Boyle s law states that the volume of a given quantity of a gas varies inversely as the pressure, the temperature remaining constant. That is. 

Tlie two precursors of tlie ideal gas law were Boyle s low and Charles law. Boyle found tliat tlie volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to die absolute pressure if die temperature is kept constant, tliat is,... 

The ideal gas law or perfect gas law is a combination of Boyle s and Charles laws for any compressible fluid (gas/vapor). 

From combined Boyle s and Charles Law Equation of State for Perfect Gas ... 

Ideal (or perfect) gas behavior is approached by most vapors and gases in the limit of low pressures and elevated temperatures. Two special forms of restricted utility known as the Boyle s law and the Charles law preceded the development of the perfect gas law.
