Lesson 1: Boyle’s Law

Guide Card
Introduction
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you master
the behavior of gases. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many different
learning situations. The language used recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students.
The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in
which you read them can be changed to correspond to the textbook you are now using. In
this module, you will learn how gases behave based on the motion and relative distances
between gas particles (S10MT-IVa-b- 21). Particularly, you will investigate the
relationship between volume and pressure at constant temperature of a gas.

Learning Objectives:
1.Define Boyle’s Law, and;
2.Explain the relationship between volume and pressure a constant temperature.

Most gases are invisible. We can name as many solids and liquids that we see around
us but not gases. It is only the very few colored ones like the black smoke produced by
smoke belchers that can be seen. Unseen gases are present, to name a few, in a bottle that
seems to be empty, in the production of food by the plant, and even in playing our favorite
sports. Can you play your favorite sports like volleyball and basketball without the ball
sufficiently filled with air or gas? Even our very own existence requires the presence of
unseen gases. We take in oxygen and we exhale carbon dioxide. Can we survive here on
earth without the desirable gases which support life?

Gases have different properties. They have indefinite shape and size, and
fit the shape and size of their containers. Gases also have mass, volume,
temperature, and pressure. The amount of a gas or its mass could be expressed
in moles or grams. The mass of gases is negligible. Volume is the amount of
space occupied by the gases. Temperature is the measure of the coldness or
hotness of the gas. Pressure is the force applied by the gas particles per unit
area. The units used for these properties are as follows:
Volume units and their equivalents:
1 mL = 1 cm3 1 L = 1 dm3 1 m3 = 1000 L
Pressure units and their equivalents:
1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 76 cm Hg = 760 torr = 101325 Pa = 14.6956 psi
Temperature units and their equivalents:
0˚C = 273.15 K 0˚C = 32˚F
Gas properties such as volume, pressure, temperature, and amount of a gas can be
varied. Hence, it is important to identify which values are for initial conditions and which ones
are for final conditions. The variables for initial conditions are usually written with 1 as the
subscript and the variables for final conditions are written with 2 as the subscript.
V1 = initial volume V2 = final volume
T1 = initial temperature T2 = final temperature
P1 = initial pressure P2 = final pressure
n1 = initial amount of a gas in mole n2 = final amount of a gas in mole
Theoretically, once these properties (volume, pressure, temperature, and amount of a
gas) are varied, equations of the different gas laws can be used to predict or measure the effects
of one variable to another. The gas laws that are found in this module are Boyle’s Law and
Charles’ Law.

Review: What’s In
Boyle’s Law (Volume and Pressure at Constant Temperature)
Boyle’s Law states that the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to
the pressure of the gas when the temperature is held constant.
Any change in the volume occupied by a gas will result in a change in the pressure exerted
by it. In other words, the product of the initial pressure and the initial volume of a gas is
equal to the product of its final pressure and final volume. This law can be expressed
mathematically as:
P1V1 = P2V2
Where,
P1 – initial pressure P2 – final pressure
V1 – initial volume V2 – final volume
This equation can be used to predict the increase in the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls
of its container when volume is decreased. The derived formulas from cross multiplication are
as follows:
P1 = V1P2 / V2 P2 = V2P1 / V1
V1 = P1V2 / V2 V2 = V1P2 / P1

What’s New
Go Experiments!
Let us investigate if there are interrelationships among the properties of gases. Let us start
with the effect of pressure to the volume of gases at constant temperature. Perform the next
activity.
Activity 1: Boyle’s Law
Objective: Investigate the relationship between volume and pressure of gases at constant
temperature.
Materials:
• 25 mL syringe • set of weights
• ruler • glue stick
• 5” by 3” illustration board • 6” by 4” by 0.25” wood
• candle or glue gun • match (if you opted to use candle)
Procedure:
1. Fill the syringe with air by pulling the plunger. See to it that the volume reading is at
approximately 25.0 mL.
2. Seal the opening of the syringe with the melted glue stick.

3. Bore a hole that is very close to the size of the opening of the syringe in a 6” by 4” flat
wood. Screw the wood on a stable object. Insert in an upright position the sealed part
of the syringe in the hole of the wood, be sure it is sturdy.

4. Paste a 5” by 3” illustration board at the end of the plunger. This will serve as the holder
of the weights. You have just prepared a Boyle’s Law Apparatus.

5. Carefully place a 200-gram weight on the holder and get the volume reading.

6. Place one at a time different weights to the plunger. If you do not have set of weights,
you may use books of the same kind. Be sure to get the mass of each book.
7. Record the mass and volume reading using Table 5.

Discussion
The activity you have performed enables you to observe Boyle’s Law, which can be
used to describe the relationship between the volume and pressure of gases at constant
temperature. Based on the result of your activity, what can you infer?
In your Grade 9 lesson on living things and their environment, you made use of the
lung model to explain the respiratory system. Do you still have the model with you? Try to
use it again. What do you notice as you pull the bigger balloon that represents the
diaphragm? Yes, the lungs expand! Let’s try to explain it with the use of Boyle’s Law.
Pulling the rubber balloon represents inhaling. As you inhale, the lung cavity expands,
causing the pressure inside the lungs to decrease and become lower than the outside
pressure. As a result, air flows from the higher pressure area, which is outside the body,
into the lungs. Exhaling is the opposite process; when you release the rubber which
represents the diaphragm, the balloon representing the lungs decreases in volume. This
phenomenon happens during exhaling. When the diaphragm contracts as you exhale, it
results to a decrease in the lung volume, increasing the pressure inside the chest cavity and
causing air to flow out of the lungs. Try to breathe in and breathe out and mindfully observe
what happens to your lung cavity. Interestingly, as you inhale and exhale, approximately
500 mL of air gets in and out of your lungs.
Here is another thing that can happen which can be explained through Boyle’s Law.
Have you observed the air exhaled by the fishes in the aquarium? It gets bigger and bigger
as it rises because the pressure at the bottom of the aquarium is higher than the pressure
near the surface.
Where else do you see applications of the relationship between pressure and volume
of gases?

The relationship between the volume and pressure of gases at constant temperature
was first stated by Robert Boyle during the 16th century. He performed an experiment
wherein he trapped a fixed amount of air in the J-tube, he changed the pressure and
controlled the temperature and then, he observed its effect to the volume of the air inside
the J-tube. He found out that as the pressure is increased, the volume decreases. He finally
concluded that the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure
at constant temperature.
Similarly, this is what you observed when you perform Activity 1.
Gas particles have a very weak intermolecular force of attraction; hence they move as far
as possible from each other. They have the tendency to occupy all the spaces they are
contained in. If the pressure is increased, the volume will be decreased forcing the gas
particles to move closer to one another.

Activity 1: What is the value of V x P?
Complete Table 2 to understand better the relationship between volume and pressure
of a gas.
Trial Volume (L) Pressure (atm) VxP
1 2.0 10.00 20.0
2 4.0 5.00 20.0
3 8.0 2.50 20.0
4 16.0 1.25 20.0
Were you able to verify the meaning of proportionality constant?
Let us apply the equation you learned about Boyle’s Law. Since volume and
pressure of the gas can be varied, let P1 and V1 be the initial pressure and volume
respectively and P2 and V2 be the final pressure and volume respectively.
Remember, Boyle’s law can be expressed mathematically as:
P1V1 = P2V2
You are now equipped with the fundamental knowledge to cope with the problem
solving activities related to Boyle’s Law. Let’s try to solve this problem:
1. The inflated balloon that slipped from the hand of Renn has a volume of 0.50 L at sea
level (1.0 atm) and it reached a height of approximately 8 km where the atmospheric
pressure is approximately 0.33 atm. Assuming that the temperature is constant, compute
for the final volume of the balloon.
Source: http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATP8b/exponentialResource.htm
In analyzing the problem, it is important that you categorize the initial and final conditions
of the variables:
Initial conditions Final conditions
V1 = 0.50 L V2 = ?
P1 = 1.0 atm P2 = 0.33 atm

By applying Boyle’s Law, can you predict what will happen to the final volume?
Yes, you’re right! The final volume will increase. Let’s compute for the numerical value
of the final volume by substituting the given values to this equation.

Did you notice the decrease in pressure and how it affects the final volume? The
pressure decreased by 1/3. That is why, the volume increased by 3-folds. Try to multiply
V1 by P1 and V2 by P2. Does it have the same product? Isn’t it amazing?

Let’s have another example.

2. Oxygen gas inside a 1.5L-gas tank has a pressure of 0.95 atm. Provided that the
temperature remains constant, how much pressure is needed to reduce its volume by
½?

What I Have Learned
➢ Gas is one of the phases of matter. It has no definite shape and size. It can be
compressed easily.
➢ Properties of gases include mass, volume, temperature, and pressure.
➢ The amount of a gas or its mass could be expressed in moles or grams. The mass of
gases is negligible.
➢ The volume of a gas is the amount of space occupied by the gases. Gases have the
tendency to occupy all the spaces of the container that they are confined. They have
weak intermolecular force of attraction; hence they are arranged as far away as
possible from each other. The common units used in expressing the volume of a gas
are liter (L) and milliliter (ml).
➢ The temperature of a gas is the measure of the hotness or coldness of an object. It is
proportional to the average kinetic energy of its molecules. It can be measured in
Celsius or Kelvin. Kelvin is the absolute scale.
➢ The pressure of a confined gas is the average effect of the forces of the colliding
molecules. It can be measured in atmosphere, torr, psi, cmHg or mmHg.
➢ Boyle’s Law states that the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional
to its pressure at constant temperature.
What I Can Do
Answer the following problems for a better grasp of the lesson: Write the answer
