Charles Law

The document outlines Charles Law, which states that the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure. It includes information about Jacques Charles, the law's formulation, and practical applications, along with conversion formulas and practice problems for calculating gas volume and temperature changes. The document serves as an educational resource for understanding the behavior of gases in relation to temperature and volume.

SAPPHIRE
LEARNING
OBJECTIVES:
• Describe the relationship between
temperature and volume.
• Find temperature or volume, given initial
and final states of the gas and make
calculations using Charles Law.
• Apply Charles Law in a real-life application.
WHO IS
JACQUES
CHARLES?
JACQUES CHARLES
(November 12, 1746 - April 7, 1823)

• He was a French mathematician,


physicist, and inventor, with
Nicolas Robert, was the first to
ascend in a hydrogen balloon
(1783).
• About 1787 he developed
Charles’s law concerning the
thermal expansion of gases.
JACQUES CHARLES
(November 12, 1746 - April 7, 1823)

• Charles' Law in 1787, the French


inventor Jacques Charles, while
investigating the inflation of his
man‐carrying hydrogen balloon,
discovered that the volume of a
gas varied directly with
temperature. This relation can be
written as and is called Charles'
CHARLES LAW

• It states that the volume of an ideal gas is


directly proportional to the absolute
temperature at constant pressure.
• The law also states that the Kelvin temperature
and the volume will be in direct proportion when
the pressure exerted on a sample of a dry gas is
held constant.
• This law was formulated in the year 1780 by
French physicist Jacques Charles.

CHARLES LAW

Charles Law is often summarized with the equation:


K =V
T
where:
V is the volume
T is the temperature
k is a constant.
CHARLES LAW

This law is expressed mathematically as:

Temperature is commonly
expressed:
• Celsius (C)
• Fahrenheit (F)
• Kelvin (K)
CHARLES LAW

Volume is commonly expressed:


• Cubic meter (m3)
• Liter (L)
• Mililiter (mL)
• Cubic centimeter (cm3 or cc)
CONVERSIONS

• Celsius to Kelvin
Add 273.15 K to Celcius.
• Celsius to Fahrenheit
(°C × 1.8) + 32
Estimation Formula: (°C × 2) +
30
• Fahrenheit to Celsius
(°F − 32) ÷ 1.8
Estimation Formula: (°F − 30) ÷
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 1: A 600 mL sample of


nitrogen is heated from 27 °C to 77 °C at
constant pressure. What is the final
volume?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 2: A tank contains 2.3 L of


helium gas at 30 °C. What will be the
volume of the tank after heating it and its
content to 45 °C temperature at constant
pressure?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 3: A 3.5 L flexible container


hold a gas at 250k. What will the new
volume be if the temperature is
increased to 400k?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 4: A balloon has a volume of


6.0 L at an unknown Temperature. When
it rises to high altitude where
temperature is 220 K, its volume shrinks
to 3.0 L. Find the initial Temperature.
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 5: A gas contracts to 5.0 L at


250 K. If its initial temperature was 500
K, what was its initial volume?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 6: A gas sample starts at an


unknown temperature with a volume of
20.0 L. After heating to 600 K, its volume
expands to 50.0 L. What was the initial
temperature?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 7: A balloon starts at 5.0 L


and 280 K. If it expands to 8.0 L, what is
the final temperature?
PRACTICE PROBLEMS

Problem # 8: A gas expands to 75.0 L


when heated to 600 K. If its original
temperature was 450 K, what was its
initial volume?
