3.2 The Gas Laws
When you inhale, the volume of your chest cavity increases, and air moves into your lungs. When you exhale, the volume of your chest cavity decreases, and air is pushed out of your lungs. Changes in the volume, the temperature, the pressure, and the number of particles have predictable effects on the behavior of a gas.
3.2 The Gas Laws
What causes gas pressure in a closed container?
Pressure is the result of a force distributed over an area.
Pressure
Collisions between particles of a gas and the walls of the container cause the pressure in a closed container of gas.
3.2 The Gas Laws
A moving hockey puck exerts pressure on any object it hits. A layer of shatterproof glass protects spectators.
• The faster the puck is traveling, the greater the force of the puck on the glass. A greater force means more pressure.
• The smaller the area of impact is, the greater the pressure. If the edge of the puck hits the glass, it exerts more pressure than if the face of the puck hits the glass.
Pressure
3.2 The Gas Laws
The SI unit of pressure is derived from SI units for force and area.
• Force is measured in newtons (N).• Area is measured in square meters (m2).• The SI unit for pressure, the pascal (Pa), is
shorthand for newtons per square meter. • Scientists often express larger amounts of
pressure in kilopascals. One kilopascal (kPa) is equal to 1000 pascals.
Pressure
3.2 The Gas Laws
The helium atoms in a balloon are constantly moving. There are more than 1022 helium atoms in a small balloon.
• When many particles collide with the walls of a container at the same time, they produce a measurable pressure.
• The more frequent the collisions, the greater the pressure is.
• The speed of the particles and their mass also affect the pressure.

3.2 The Gas Laws
What factors affect gas pressure?
Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
Factors that affect the pressure of an enclosed gas are its temperature, its volume, and the number of its particles.
3.2 The Gas Laws
Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
Raising the temperature of a gas will increase its pressure if the volume of the gas and the number of particles are constant.
Temperature
3.2 The Gas Laws
The firefighter is using a pressure gauge to check the air pressure in a tire on a firetruck.If he checks the tire pressure again after a long drive on a highway, he will find that the pressure has increased.
Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
3.2 The Gas Laws
The motion of tires on the highway heats the tires and increases tire pressure.
• As the temperature rises, the average kinetic energy of the particles in the air increases.
• With increased kinetic energy, the particles move faster and collide more often with the inner walls of the tires.
• Faster-moving particles hit the walls with greater force.
• More collisions and increased force cause the pressure of the air in the tires to rise.

Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
Reducing the volume of a gas increases its pressure if the temperature of the gas and the number of particles are constant.
Volume
3.2 The Gas Laws
Twist the cap onto a plastic bottle and then squeeze it. What happens?
• The volume of the plastic bottle begins to decrease.
• As the volume decreases, the particles of trapped air collide more often with the walls of the bottle.
• The pressure in the bottle increases.
Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
3.2 The Gas Laws
Movement of a muscle called the diaphragm changes the volume of your chest cavity.
• The volume increases when you inhale. The pressure decreases and air flows to your lungs.
• The volume decreases when you exhale. The pressure increases and air flows from your lungs.

Inhaling Exhaling
Diaphragm contracts. Rib cage is lifted up and out.
Diaphragm relaxes. Rib cage moves down and in.
3.2 The Gas Laws
Factors That Affect Gas Pressure
Increasing the number of particles will increase the pressure of a gas if the temperature and the volume are constant.
The more particles there are in the same volume, the greater the number of collisions and the greater the pressure.
