 Boyles Law
What is Boyles Law? : The pressure and volume of a
gas are inversely related

Formula: P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
Possible errors: Put the subscripts in the wrong areas
Tips & Clues to remember: Ones on one side, twos on
the other When you pull
the plunger out
Real Life Application: on a syringe, it
causes the
volume within
the chamber to
increase.
 Charles Law
Is an experimental gas law that describes how gases
tend to expand when heated. describes the
relationship between temperature and volume at a
constant pressure
Formula: V1/TI = V2/T2
Real Life Applications:
 Gay-Lussacs Law
Gay-Lussac's law, also known as Amontons's law of
pressuretemperature, states that the pressure of a
gas of fixed volume and fixed mass is proportional
directly to the gas's absolute temperature.
Possible Errors: Mixing up the coefficients.
Formula:
Real World Application:
Hot air balloons work
because the change in
temperature
increases/decreases its
density from the
outside, causing it to
 Avogadros Principle
Equal volumes of gases contain equal
numbers of moles at a constant
temperature and pressure
One mole contains 22.42L at
standard temperature and pressure
The equation is easy, but some
mistakes you can make while using it Real life application:
is setting it up.
When you
Formula: blow air you
or [V1 x n2 = V2 x n1] force gas
molecules
into the ball.
The more
molecules the
greater the
volume is.
 Things to
remember:
R= Universal Gas
Ideal Gas Law Constant
R= 0.0821 x atm/mol x K
R= 8.315 dm^3 x
Formula: PV = R or PV=nRT kPa/mol x k

nT
Possible errors: Use the wrong R, or wrong formula
when looking for something specific
Tips or clues to remember: Create an acronym (ex:
Purple Violets, not Rose Though)
Estimating
Real Life Application: the amount
of ventilation
a building
needs for
human use
 Daltons Principle
Daltons principle is finding the total pressure of mixed
gases that equal the sum of partial pressures of
individual gases.
Formula: P(total)= P1+P2+P3
Real Life Application:
