Fourth Grading Period
Directions: Read and analyze the following. Solve each problem using GAFSA. Write
your answer in a whole sheet of paper.
I. Boyle’s Law
1. The volume of a person's lungs is 600 ml at a pressure of 760 mm Hg. when the
lungs expands to 610 ml, by how much does the pressure in the lungs drop?
2. What is the volume of gas in liters at 1.00 atm if it originally occupies 2.00 L at
1.58 atm?
3. Oxygen gas inside a 1.5 L gas tank has a pressure of 0.95 atm. Provided that the
temperature remains constant, how much pressure is needed to reduce its volume
by 1/2?
4. A scuba diver needs a diving tank in order to provide breathing gas while he is
underwater. how much pressure is needed for 6.0 L of gas at 1.01 atmospheric
pressure to be compressed in a 3.0 L cylinder?
To convert atm to mm Hg, just multiply the atm value to 760 then change
the unit to mmHg.
Example: Convert 1.9 atm to mm Hg
3. The helium tank has a pressure of 650 torr at 25°C . What will be the
pressure if the temperature is tripled?
