Boyle's Law

Boyle’s law states: ‘If the temperature remains constant, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to

Through the conduction of this prac, this was found to be true. The pressure inside the syringe had to increase as the

volume decreased because the molecules inside had less space to collide with one another and the wall. Therefore as

the molecules had less volume to move around in, they would be colliding more often with eachother and the wall,

increasing the pressure inside the syringe. It is therefore correct to say that :

Some assumptions were made when conducting this prac. They include;

(1)that temperature remained constant throughout the course of the prac and so the atmospheric pressure remained

(2)that all the equipment used were free of faults and completely efficient.

The assumptions made in the prac played a major role because if the assumptions were not true at the time, this would

mean that the results collected are not entirely accurate. Especially when considering that there was human error also

involved, this would have played a part in the data collected.

There were a few problems that were found when conducting the prac.

the origin. This is to account for the atmostpheric pressure that was also included in the total pressure.
