Topic: Gas Laws

I. Introduction:

Created in the early 17th century, the gas laws have been around to assist

scientists in finding volumes, amount, pressures and temperature when coming

to matters of gas. The gas laws consist of three primary laws: Charles' Law,

Boyle's Law and Avogadro's Law (all of which will later combine into the General

Gas Equation and Ideal Gas Law).

This lesson will go through the basic gas laws that describe the relationship

between the volume of a gas and temperature, pressure and the number of

moles.

II. Objectives: In this module, you should be able to:

1. Explain the relationship among volume, temperature, pressure, and number

of moles for gases

2. Perform calculations involving the relationship among volume, temperature,

pressure, and number of moles for gases

3. Cite practical applications of the gas laws in our daily life
