Gas Laws and Scuba Diving Physics

These flashcards cover key concepts related to gas laws as discussed in the lecture, focusing on isobaric and isothermal processes, Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Dalton's Law.

In isobaric processes, pressure is .

constant

In isothermal processes, temperature is .

constant

Boyle's Law states that if the temperature and number of moles are constant, then times is equal for two states.

pressure; volume

If pressure increases while volume is held constant, the temperature according to Law.

increases; Gay-Lussac's

Charles's Law relates volume and temperature at a constant and .

pressure; moles

Dalton's Law states that the total pressure is equal to the sum of the pressures.

partial

When a diver goes deeper underwater, their lungs can in volume if they do not exhale.

expand

The standard atmospheric pressure is approximately Pascals.

100,000

If the volume of gas increases, the temperature must when pressure is held constant, according to Charles's Law.

increase

According to Boyle's Law, if the pressure of a gas decreases, its volume will if temperature is constant.

increase
