WORKSHEET ABOUT GAS LAWS

Subject : Physics Name: ………………….

Topic : Gas Law

1. The pressure on 8.5 dm3 of nitrogen gas is doubled at a fixed temperature.

What will its volume become in International Unit? [3]

2. A container holds 650 litres of air at a pressure of 2 atm. If the pressure on the gas is increased to 5 atm, what
will its volume become? (Assume that the temperature remains constant). [3]

3. A 450 mL sample of nitrogen is heated from 28 °C to 75 °C at constant pressure.

What is the final volume?
[3]

4. Butane has a volume of 0.05 m3 at a pressure of 100 kPa and the temperature of 200C. What is the
temperature is needed to heat gas to a volume of 0.4 m3 at the constant pressure? [3]

5. A container holds 450 mL of Oxygen at 27 0C and a pressure of 760 mmHg.
What will be its volume if the temperature increases by 45 0C? [3]

6. Some students measure the volume of a sample of gas at different temperatures.

The table below shows their results.

a) Draw a graph to show how the volume of gas varies with temperature. [3]

b) Circle the anomalous point on your graph. [1]

c) Use your graph to find the temperature of the gas when its volume is zero.

Temperature = ……. 0C. [1]

7. If we have a gas that at 10 degrees Celsius occupies 2.4 liters, calculate the final temperature, if at the end
it occupies 2.15 liters. [3]

8. Explain why :
(a) The increase in pressure of a gas when its volume is decreased at constant temperature. [2]

(b) The decrease in volume of a gas when its temperature is decreased at constant pressure. [2]
