    FFF 12-3 Charles Law

    Uploaded by

    FFF
    The document discusses the relationship between temperature and volume of gases. It explains that gases shrink when cooled and expand when heated according to Charles's Law. The law states that the volume of a gas increases proportionally with temperature when pressure and amount of gas remain constant. The document provides examples of calculations using Charles's Law to determine the volume of a gas sample at different temperatures.

    The relationship between temperature and

    volume
    How Volume Varies With Temperature

    • If we place a balloon in liquid


    nitrogen it shrinks:
    • So, gases shrink if cooled.
    How Volume Varies With Temperature

    • Conversely, if
    we heat a gas
    it expands
    • As in a hot air
    balloon.
    Charles’s Law
    • Charles’s Law:
    • As the temperature of a gas
    increases,
    • the volume increases
    proportionally,
    • provided that the pressure and
    amount of gas remain constant,
    • Formula = V1/T1 = V2/T2
    • A sample of gas occupies 3.5 L
    at 300 K. What volume will it
    occupy at 200 K?
    V1 = 3.5 L, T1 = 300K,
    V2 = ?, T2 = 200K
    Using Charles’ law: V1/T1 = V2/T2
    3.5 L / 300 K = V2 / 200 K
    V2 = (3.5 L/300 K) x (200 K)
    = 2.3 L
    1. If a 1 L balloon is heated from
    22°C to 100°C, what will its new
    volume be?
    V1 = 1 L, T1 = 22°C = 295 K
    V2 = ?, T2 = 100 °C = 373 K
    V1/T1 = V2/T2,
    1 L / 295 K = V2 / 373 K
    V2 = (1 L/295 K) x (373 K) = 1.26 L
    • Note the Temperature was converted to
    Kelvin
    • Show that gas
    volume and Charles’ Law
    Temperature are a
    direct proportion
    • Temperature goes
    up Volume goes up
    • Temperature goes
    down Volume goes
    down.
    o
    Kelvin / Celsius conversions (exact):

    • Kelvin = o Celsius + 273.15


    • o Celsius = Kelvin - 273.15
