- An LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) cylinder weighs 15.0 kg when empty. When full, it weighs 30.0 kg and shows a pressure of 3.0 atm. In the course of usage at $27^\circ$C, the mass of the full cylinder is reduced to 24.2 kg. The volume of the used gas in the normal usage condition (1 atm and $27^\circ$C) is (assume LPG to be normal butane and it behaves ideally):

Gas Laws
The gas laws were developed at the end of the 18th century, when scientists began to realize that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.
The five gas laws are:
- Boyle’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas.
- Charles’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the absolute temperature.
- Gay-Lussac’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls of its container and the absolute temperature associated with the gas.
- Avogadro’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the amount of gaseous substance.
- The Combined Gas Law (or the Ideal Gas Law), which can be obtained by combining the four laws listed above.
