Final Pressure vs Initial Pressure

Fórmula

Gay-Lussac's Law

At constant volume, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

Formula

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Heating a gas in a rigid container increases its pressure.

Ejemplo Resuelto

A sealed container at 1 atm and 300 K heated to 450 K.

  1. 01P1/T1 = P2/T2
  2. 02P2 = P1 * T2 / T1
  3. 03P2 = 1 * 450 / 300
  4. 04P2 = 1.5 atm

Preguntas Frecuentes

Why does a tire pressure increase on a hot day?

By Gay-Lussac's law, heating the air inside the tire (roughly constant volume) increases the pressure proportionally.

Can a closed container explode from heating?

Yes. If the pressure exceeds the container's structural limit, it will fail. This is why pressurized containers have safety relief valves.

Is this the same as the combined gas law?

Gay-Lussac's law is a special case of the combined gas law (P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2) where volume is constant.
