Problem-Solving Strategies: Guide to Using the Gas Laws Once you've identified the initial and final conditions, you're ready to solve for the unknown quantity in your problem. Boyle's Law expresses the pressure-volume relationship as P₁V₁= P₂ V₂, so you will need to solve this equation for the unknown quantity and then plug in your known values to calculate the unknown. What pressure would it take to compress 250. L of helium gas initially at 1.00 atm into a 2.00 L tank at constant temperature? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

X Incorrect; Try Again; 3 attempts remaining Enter your answer using units of pressure. 5 of 15 Part C Practice the steps for a multi-step problem Sometimes the problem will give the initial and final states in different units. In this case, you need to identify all of the pressures and all of the volumes by organizing them into a table (step 1 of our problem- solving method). Then, you need to convert all of your pressures to the same units (usually atmospheres works best) and all of your volumes to the same units (usually liters). Then you can set up the problem and solve. A balloon filled with 2.00 L of helium initially at 1.75 atm of pressure rises into the atmosphere. When the surrounding pressure reaches 500. mmHg, the balloon will burst. If 1 atm = 760. mmHg, what volume will the balloon occupy in the instant before it bursts? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Ideal and Real Gases
Ideal gases obey conditions of the general gas laws under all states of pressure and temperature. Ideal gases are also named perfect gases. The attributes of ideal gases are as follows,
Gas Laws
Gas laws describe the ways in which volume, temperature, pressure, and other conditions correlate when matter is in a gaseous state. The very first observations about the physical properties of gases was made by Robert Boyle in 1662. Later discoveries were made by Charles, Gay-Lussac, Avogadro, and others. Eventually, these observations were combined to produce the ideal gas law.
Gaseous State
It is well known that matter exists in different forms in our surroundings. There are five known states of matter, such as solids, gases, liquids, plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate. The last two are known newly in the recent days. Thus, the detailed forms of matter studied are solids, gases and liquids. The best example of a substance that is present in different states is water. It is solid ice, gaseous vapor or steam and liquid water depending on the temperature and pressure conditions. This is due to the difference in the intermolecular forces and distances. The occurrence of three different phases is due to the difference in the two major forces, the force which tends to tightly hold molecules i.e., forces of attraction and the disruptive forces obtained from the thermal energy of molecules.
