Gas Laws

Boyle's Law-
States that when temperature is constant pressure and volume are inversely related; so, as pressure increases volume decreases. An example of this would be the egg being sucked out of the Erlenmeyer flask. As we increased pressure by putting more air into the flask, the volume had to decrease, so the egg moved closer to the mouth of the flask.

Charles's Law-
States that when pressure is constant temperature and volume are directly related. An example of this is the toy story balloon rising. As the temperature goes up, the volume goes up, because the rise in temperature from the heater makes the molecules move faster, and take up more space. When they take up more space the volume increases, and density is mass/volume. So as the volume goes up the density decreases, making the balloon lighter than the air around it. this causes the balloon to rise.

Gay-Lusaac's Law-
States that when volume is constant pressure and temperature are directly related. An example of this would be the bottle where we added pressure and measured the temperature. As the pressure in the bottle increased the particles started to have more collisions, increasing the average kinetic energy in each particle. That made the temperature rise.

Real Life Example-
Popping bubble wrap is an example of Boyle's Law, because temperature remains constant and pressure and volume are inversely related. As you push down on the plastic bubble you are making it take up less space, which decreases the volume. This makes the pressure go up, because the gas is exerting more force on the plastic around the bubble, causing it to pop.
