1. Drill

Good Morning, everyone, I am your science

teacher for today. By the way I am Mr. Peter Good Morning, Sir.
Dave M. Pedroso.

 Prayer

“Alright, before anything else, let us first have

a prayer. Ms. Julie can you lead us the Yes, Sir.
prayer?”

Thank you, Ms. Julie

 Attendance

Okay, let’s check our attendance. Ms. Caitlin,

our class monitor, who are absents for today?
 Setting of Standards
At this moment, let me first present to you our
class rules. Please read it aloud, class.”
Sir I’m glad to say that no one is absent for
today.
Students read the class rules aloud.

“Very well. I hope that we can follow these

rules in order for us to have a smooth sailing
discussion. Okay? Yes, Sir.

Alright.

2. Review
Now, let us recall what we have discussed last
meeting.

Who can still remember the concept of

Boyle’s Law? Yes Henry? Boyle’s law states that if volume decreases
the pressure increases if the temperature is
constant.

Excellent! What about its general equation? V1P1= V2P2

Very good!

I’m glad that you all remembered what we

have discussed last meeting.

B. Developmental Activities

1. Motivation

Today, we will be having our new lesson but

before anything else, who among you knows
how to bake? Me, Sir.

Okay good. What is used to make the bread Yeast, Sir.

big or fluffy?

That’s right. Yeast is used to make the bread

bigger and fluffy. This time, let’s take a look
at this video clip and tell me what you have
observed.
Play video clip
Okay. What happened to the dough, class? It becomes bigger; Sir after it was placed
inside the oven.
Very good observation, class. What do you
think is the explanation for that?
Let us know the reason behind this in our
lesson for today.

B. Developmental Activities

2. Activity
What you have observed has something to do
with our lesson for today, which is all about
Charles’ Law of Gas. Before we proceed, let
us first read the objectives for today’s lesson.
Everybody read.
At the end of the lesson, the students must be
able to:
1. Determine the relationship of gases
between volume and temperature;
2. investigate the relationship between
volume and temperature at constant pressure;
 3. perform problem solving using the
equation of Charles’ Law; and
4. recognize the applications of Charles’
Law in real life situation.

To further understand the concept behind

Charles’ Law, let have an activity.
The class will be divided into two groups.
The left side will be the group 1 and the right
side will be the group 2. You have 30 seconds
to form a circle with your group. Is that
clear? Yes, Sir.

Students form a circle.

Please settle down. Today’s activity is entitled

Magic balloon. You will listen and watch the
video experiment carefully. You can only
repeat it once. And after watching the video I Yes, Sir.
will be calling representatives to answer these
questions. Please take note of these questions.
Is that clear?

Time is up, everyone.

3. Analysis

Alright. This time, I want the representatives

for each group to answer the questions earlier.
Okay, let’s start with group 1.

In the activity that you watched, what do you

observe as the balloon was put in the liquid
nitrogen?
Group 1: Good morning, Sir. Upon watching
the experiment, we observed that when we the
balloon was put in the liquid nitrogen, the
balloon depleted.
Very good observation group 1. Okay how
about group 2. How about when the balloon
was put outside the liquid nitrogen?
Group 2: Good morning, Sir. We observed
that the balloon expands, when we put it
outside the liquid nitrogen.

Well said, Group 2.Lastly, What does this Representative: The temperature has
indicate? What is in liquid nitrogen that made something to do with the size of the balloon,
the balloon depletes? Sir because the liquid nitrogen is very cold.

Alright, as you put the balloon on the liquid

nitrogen, there is a change in the volume of
the gas, causes the balloon to expand. And if
we put that in into graph, the relationship of
the two will look like this:

4. Abstraction

Through our activity earlier, we’ve observed

that when the temperature of a gas increases,
its volume increases and vice versa. This is
the principle of Charles’ Law of Gases. Do
you have any idea who is the man behind this
law or who introduced this law? Jacques Charles, Sir.

That’s right. Jacques Alexandre Cesar Charles

is a French inventor, scientist, mathematician,
and balloonist.
In 1787, the French inventor Jacques Charles
discovered that the volume of a gas varied
directly with temperature.

Charles’ Law states that…. Everybody read.

Charles’s Law states that the volume of a
given mass of gas varies directly with the
ABSOLUTE TEMPERATURE of the gas
when pressure is kept constant.

Thank you, class.

In Boyle’s Law, the temperature remains
constant. However, in Charles’ Law, pressure
is the constant variable.

As you a can observed the ABOSOLUTE

TEMPERATURE is being highlighted since
the volume of a gas decreases with falling
temperature, scientists realized that a natural
zero point for temperature could be defined as
the temperature at which the volume of a gas
theoretically becomes zero.

What is the absolute temperature scale?

Everybody read… Kelvin, Sir

The Kelvin scale must be used because zero

on the Kelvin scale corresponds to a complete
stoppage of molecular motion.

Mathematical Feature of Charles’ Law

In Charles’ Law the Kelvin temperature of a
gas is directly proportional to its volume at a
constant pressure this can be represented by
the equation:

V a T at constant pressure

To remove the proportionality h sign, a

constant, k, is introduced.
V=kT

Then
k= V/T

If the same gas is brought to different

temperatures, it will give to different
volumes. The equation will become
V1/T1=V2/T2
Where:
T1= initial temperature of the gas T2= final
temperature of the gas
V1= initial volume of the gas V2= final
volume of the gas

To be able to understand solving this. Let’s

have this example.

• A hot air balloon has a volume of

at . What is the volume if
the air cools to ?

First, let’s write what are the given quantities

and identify what quantity was asked. Can
you write it on the board, Clark?

Given
= 99
= 80
As you see the unit for temperature in the =
problem is Celsius we need to convert it to = unknown
Kelvin. Do you know how to convert Celsius
to Kelvin?
K=°c+273.15
K=99°c+273.15
K=372.15 K

K=°c+273.15
K=-80°c+273.15
K=353.15 K

= 372.15 K
= 353.15 K
=
= unknown
 To proceed we will use the formula
.
Hence,

2,657.04

Is it clear?

Okay. Let’s try one more time.

This time you have to solve the problem
independently. I will give 1 minute to do it.
Are you ready?

Problem 2
• At 0 , a gas occupies 22.4L. How hot
the gas be, in Celsius, to reach a
volume of 25.0L?
.
Given:
=0
= unknown
= 22.4L
= 25.0L
Take note that we are looking for temperature
we will derive the formula to

Time’s up. What can solve it on the board?

What is your answer? 31.7
That’s right. Excellent, I guess you
understand the equation very well and know
how to solve a problem regarding Charles’
Law.

5. Application
Now, I have a question. Is Charles’ Law can
also be observed in real life situation?

Can you give me an example? Yes, Sir.

Answer may vary

Excellent, just like the video clip that I

showed to you earlier. The yeast we used in
baking produces carbon dioxide gas. When
bread and cakes are baked at high
temperature, carbon dioxide gas expands. As
a result of this expansion, our bread and cakes
become deliciously spongy and fluffy in
appearance and ready to serve.

6. Generalization
Now, let’s summarized what we learned
today.
Charles’ Law states….

Charles’ Law states that at constant pressure,

the volume of a fixed amount of gas is
directly proportional to the Kelvin (K)
temperature.
Very good. What is the equation for Charles’
Law?
V1/T1=V2/T2

Is Charles’ Law can be found on our day to Yes, Sir.
