Are volume and pressure of a gas related?

Pressure affects gases differently than it affects solids and liquids. How do pressure changes affect the volume of a gas?

Procedure

1. Read and complete a lab safety form.

2. Stretch and blow up a small balloon several times.

3. Finally, blow up the balloon to a diameter of about 5 cm. Twist the neck, and stretch the mouth of the balloon over the opening of a plastic

bottle. Tape the neck of the balloon to the bottle.

4. Squeeze and release the bottle several times while observing the balloon. Record your observations in the Data and Observations section below.

Think About This

1. Why doesn't the balloon deflate when you attach it to the bottle?

2. What caused the balloon to inflate when you squeezed the bottle?

3.

Key Concept Using this lab as a reference, do you think pressure and volume

of a gas are related? Explain.

Boyle's law

Charles's law

kinetic molecular theory

pressure

1. Temperature, pressure, and volume affect the behavior of gases. Which variable is held constant in the relationship described by Boyle's law?

2. Boyle's law describes a relationship relating to increases and decreases relative to two of these variables. What are these two variables?

3. Temperature, pressure, and volume affect the behavior of gases. Which variable is held constant in Charles's law?

4. Charles's law describes a relationship relating to increases and decreases relative to two of these variables. What are these two variables?

5. Pressure is defined as "the amount of force applied per unit of area." For a sample of gas in a container, how would pressure be affected by an increase in the volume of the container?

6. What are four main ideas that are represented in the kinetic molecular theory?

1. Temperature, pressure, and

changes affect gases more

than they do solids and

2. The in matter.

theory is an explanation of how particles behave

a. One idea of this theory is that all matter is made of particles.

b. These particles are in constant,

motion.

c. The particles

d. Energy is not

when particles collide.

B. What is pressure?

1.

is the result of particles' colliding with their container.

2. Pressure is the amount of

exerted per unit of area.

C. Pressure and Volume

1. When the volume of a sample of gas decreases,

increases.

2. Pressure increases because the gas is

and there are more

collisions with the

3. When the volume of a sample of gas

, pressure decreases.

4. Fewer

D. Boyle's Law

1. The scientist Robert Boyle described the relationship between

the

and the

of a gas.

2. Boyle's law states that when either volume or

increases,

the other property decreases, when

is constant.

E. Temperature and Volume

1. Gas behavior is also affected by

changes.

How does temperature affect the volume?

You can observe Charles's law in action using a few lab supplies.

Procedure

1. Read and complete a lab safety form.

2. Stretch and blow up a small balloon several times.

3. Finally, blow up the balloon to a diameter of about 5 cm. Twist the neck and stretch the mouth of the balloon over the opening of an ovenproof flask.

gradually heat the flask. Record your observations in the Data and Observations section below.

5. Use tongs to remove the flask from the hot plate. Allow the flask to cool for 5 min. Record your observations.

6. Place the flask in a bowl of ice water. Record your observations.

4. Place the flask on a cold hot plate. Turn on the hot plate to low, and
