Combined Gas Law<br />

The combined gas law combines the three gas laws:<br />

Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law. It states the<br />

ratio of the product of pressure and volume and the absolute<br />

temperature of a gas is equal to a constant.<br />

1) A gas at 155 kPa and 25.0 C has an initial volume of 1.00 L. The<br />

pressure of the gas increases to 605 kPa as the temperature is raised<br />

to 125 C. What is the new volume?<br />

155 kPa x 1.00 L / 25.0 C = 605 kPa x X / 125 C<br />

- turn celsius into kelvins<br />

155 kPa x 1.00 L/ 298 K = 605 kPa x X / 398 K<br />

155 kPa x L / 298 K = 605 kPa x X/ 398 K<br />

- Cross multiply<br />

61690 kPa x L x K / 180290 = 180290 kPa x K x X / 180290<br />

x = . 342170947 L<br />

V2 = .342 L<br />
