Gas Laws Problems Worksheet

This document provides a practice sheet on Boyle's law, Charles' law, and Gay-Lussac's law. It includes examples of problems using each gas law to calculate unknown variables like pressure, volume, and temperature. Students are asked to fill in tables with the appropriate gas law, known variables, and equations to solve seven problems related to how gases behave under different conditions.

Boyle’s Law
1. A gas has a volume of 300 mL at 300 mm Hg. What will its volume be if the pressure is changed
to 500 mm Hg?












2. A gas has a volume of 460 mL at 500 mm Hg. What will be the volume at 1.2 atm?












2. A gas has a volume of 5 liters at 3 atm. To expand the volume to 7500 ml, what the new pressure
(in atm) have to be?






Charles’ Law
4. A gas has a volume of 4 liters at 50 oC. What will its volume be (in liters) at 100oC?








5. A gas has a volume of 350 ml at 45oC. If the volume changes to 400 ml, what is the new
temperature? ( answer in oC )












Guy-Lussac’s Law
6. The gases in a hair spray can are at a temperature of 27oC and a pressure of 30 lbs/in2. If the gases in
the can reach a pressure of 90 lbs/in2, the can will explode. To what temperature must the gases be
raised in order for the can to explode? Assume constant volume.
















7. Maybelline Cousteau’s backup oxygen tank reads 900 mmHg while on her boat, where the temperature
is 27oC. When she dives down to the bottom of an unexplored methane lake on a recently-discovered
moon of Neptune, the temperature will drop down to –183oC. What will the pressure in her backup
tank be at that temperature?
