For numbers 1-7, read the passage and answer the questions that follows.

The Escapade of Mr. Santos

1Mr. Santos, who is up for adventure had a weekend getaway to Tagbilaran, Bohol. 2He travelled from
Tagbilaran to Carmen to experience a breathtaking ride in a hot air balloon to witness the spectacular
beauty of Bohol at high altitudes. 3As he boarded the hot air balloon; he noticed that the crew continued to
heat up the balloon that gave a strong odor. 4The balloon got bigger in size and took off. 5As it was heated
continuously, the hot air balloon floated in air and continued to move in higher altitudes with an increase
in speed of the travel. 6When they are about to land, he noticed that the crew decreased the heat and
noticed that the balloon became smaller in size, moved slowly and eventually land on the ground.
1. What property of gas is displayed during the take-off of a hot air balloon carrying Mr. Santos
and the crew?
A. compressibility B. expansibility C. diffusibility D. None is correct.

2. Which of the following DOES NOT explain how a hot air balloon boarded by Mr. Santos is able to
float in air?
A. Temperature is the measure of the motion of the particles. When temperature increases
the particles begin to move faster.
B. Since particles of air inside the balloon increase in temperature, increase of speed and
collisions occur. So, the greater the amount of collisions, the larger the pressure.
C. The volume of the balloon increases until the balloon reaches its maximum capacity,
since the particles are still heated the pressure remains larger than atmospheric pressure.
D. The altitude of the balloon contributes to the increase of the balloon’s size but lessens the
collision of air particles inside the balloon.

3. Which of the following properties DOES NOT describe the gas inside the hot air balloon?
A. pressure B. volume C. ductility D. temperature

4. Imagine the particles of air inside the hot air balloon in Bohol, which of the following DOES NOT
contribute to Kinetic Molecular Theory’s basic assumptions?
A. Gas consists of molecules in constant motion in straight-line paths.
B. The temperature of a gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules.
C. The collision between gas molecules and with the walls of the container are perfectly
elastic.
D. Since the collisions of the molecules are perfectly elastic, there is a strong attractive force
between molecules in the gaseous state.

5. As the hot air balloon was heated up, Mr. Santos smelled a strong odor given off. What property
of gases does this situation tell us?
A. compressibility B. expansibility C. diffusibility D. low-density
6. Which of the following statements is the CORRECT definition of the property being described in
question #5?
I. It is a process of a substance spreading out to evenly fill its container or environment.
II. This refers to the ability of gases to diffuse or intermingle with the molecules of other
substances.
III. This measure of how much a given volume of matter decreases when placed under pressure.
IV. It is the capability of being poured or spread out.
A. I, II and III B. I, III and IV C. I, II and IV D. II, III and IV

7. Which of the two properties is being described based on sentences 4-6 of the passage?
A. volume and temperature C. pressure and temperature
B. volume and pressure D. volume, pressure, and temperature

For numbers 8-12, read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

The Human Lungs

Human lung is an important organ in the body. As this expands, the pressure in the diaphragm
decreases allowing more air to enter the body. When the pressure increases, this organ contracts to
release carbon dioxide out. 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, the air flows from the
higher-pressure area which is outside the body into the lungs. Exhaling is the opposite process, the
diaphragm contracts as you exhale which results to decrease in lung volume and increases the
pressure inside the chest cavity and causing air to flow out of the lungs.
8. The human lung is an application of Boyle’s Law in our daily life, which of the following
statements BEST describes Boyle’s Law based on the passage.
A. It describes the relationship between the volume and pressure of gases at constant
temperature.
B. It describes the relationship between the volume and temperature of gases at constant
pressure.
C. It describes the relationship between the temperature and pressure of gases at constant
volume.
D. It describes the relationship between the volume and pressure of gases.

9. Which of the following choices is the correct derived formula for Boyle’s law if you’re looking for
V2?

10. Based on the passage about the human lungs, what happens to its volume when the
gas is compressed with an increased pressure?
A. increases B. decreases C. remains the same D. becomes variable

11. Which of the following examples is another application of Boyle’s Law?

A. A syringe plunger being pressed down to draw out the fluid causes the volume to decrease
inside the syringe while the pressure increases.
B. A basketball left outside on a cold winter night shrink in size when temperature
decreases, and volume of the gas also decreases.
C. A hot air balloon when heated causes air to expand and the volume of the air increases,
so it rises.
D. A hot fluffy bread, when made, causes the volume to increase as temperature increases.
12. Loreca wants to buy a portable oxygen tank for her father. A 6-L oxygen gas exerts a pressure
of 1 atm. How much pressure is needed for this gas to compress in 3-L cylinder, assuming that the
temperature is constant?
A. 2.8 atm B. 2.0 atm C. 18 atm D. 0.5 atm
For numbers 13-15, read the passage and answer the questions that follows.
The Sky Lanterns
The sky lanterns we use in celebrating New
Year, Christmas, weddings, and other
occasions is like a mini-hot air balloon; as
the temperature increases, the sky
lanterns obtain its full volume and rises in
the atmosphere.

13. Which gas law describes the relationship between volume and temperature at
constant pressure?

14. Based on the given passage, what conclusion can you come up about the volume-
temperature relationship?
A. If the temperature of a gas decreases, the volume of the gas also decreases when the
pressure is constant.
B. If the temperature of a gas decreases, the volume of the gas increases when the pressure
is constant.
C. If the temperature of a gas decreases, the volume of the gas doubles when the pressure is
constant.

is constant.
