Title: Experiment 1: Boyle’s Law
Objectives:
To determine the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas. To compare the experimental results with theoretical results. To calculate the PV value of an ideal gas.
Introductions:
Gas does not have fixed volume and shape. It is related to the pressure, volume, temperature and number of molecules. The gas pressure in a container is due to the collision of the gas molecule against the wall of the container. The gas pressure can be increased by decreasing the volume of the container at a constant temperature of gas; increasing the number of gas molecules or increasing the temperature of the gas at constant volume of the container. Boyle’s law states that the pressure of a fixed …show more content…

Its mathematical expression is V_1/T_1 =V_2/T_2 . Besides that, the Avogadro’s law state that the volume of a mixed amount of gas is directly proportional to the number of gas molecules at the constant temperature and pressure, where its equation is V_1/n_1 = V_2/n_2 . (LeTran, 2016) The Pressure law state that the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature. If the temperature increased, the pressure will increase as well. (The Pressure Law, 2016) The ideal gas must have to fulfil two assumptions, which is there are no intermolecular forces acting between the gas molecules, and the gas molecules do not take up space. An ideal gas usually behaves at high pressure and low temperature. The ideal gas law is the combination of Boyle’s law, Charles’ law and Avogadro’s law. In the mathematical expression, it can be simplified as PV=nRT, where P indicates the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of the molecule, R is the gas constant, 0.082057 L atm mol-1 K-1 ,and the T is the temperature in Kelvin unit.

    We were asked to correctly communicate these findings as we tested each of the substances she had encountered with both water and hexane. In experiment number three, The Relationship Between the Volume of a Gas and the Temperature, we where given a list of materials and asked to come up with our own procedure, which we did using zip lock bags filled with air, and submerged fully in a measured amount of water in order to find the volume, and then the change in volume when the temperature of the water was increased. In the fourth experiment we were asked to find the temperature of heated water, based on the cold and warm water. The experiment also required that each section be preformed several times in order to ensure accuracy, and also asked that the experimental responsibilities be split up between lab partners, each doing a section of the testing. This gave us an opportunity to work together with our fellow lab partners, with no one person doing the bulk of the work.

    In the story “Greasy Lake” written by T. Coraghessan Boyle, there are three college aged boys who are on summer vacation and looking for trouble, as they want to be “bad”. We know that the boys are not in fact “bad” because one of the boys attends and Ivy League school, one wants to become a musician and they all three ride around in their mothers station wagon. The big symbol of “bad” in this story is a place called Greasy Lake. Greasy Lake is a deserted, filthy place on the outskirts of town that the boys go to after they have eaten and all the bars have closed. When they get to the lake the boys mistake a car for one of their buddies car and decide to screw around with it.

    The science behind this is very simple, it involves the behavior of gases. Atoms in a gas is free flowing. They respond and move faster when there is heat, and slower when it is cooler because of a loss of energy. It then changes the pressure of the gas, as the atoms in a certain volume of gas changes. In this experiment, we heated to can with water in it until it was boiling, which

    Ever since the early 18th century with the cases of the “wild beast” many cases have come and gone but some have gained popularity in the talks of society. Such as the Edward Theodore case in 1957. Edward Theodore Gein was born on August 27, 1906, in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Growing up Gein was devoted to his mother until she died in 1945, and he then became increasingly deranged and started to go to cemeteries to unbury recently buried female corpses. As soon as he unburied the female he would cut off body parts and keep them as trophies, then put the rest of the corpse making it seem as if he never dug it up.

    In chemistry, elements have properties that distinguish them from one another. Despite the various chemical properties, one of the most important physical properties is a property known as density. Density was first discovered in 250 BC by the Greek mathematician Archimedes when he compared real and fake gold by placing both in water. The key principle is that density will affect whether objects float or sink. If an object has a higher density than its surroundings, it will sink.

With 20,000 concentration camps each serving a different purpose, whether it was a transit camp, forced labor camp or extermination camp. On July 16, 1937 the camp Buchenwald was established and set up to be a forced labor camp where the prisoners would build the place in which they stayed and the fence that went around the camp. Buchenwald prisoners included Jews, criminals, Jehovah witnesses, gypsies, and homosexuals. Buchenwald was one of the first and largest concentration camp on German soil with 130 sub camps.

    The control in the experiment is water. Units used while timing the productivity of gas from an Alka-Seltzer tablet in different temperatures is, seconds. In order to find out if temperature controls the rate of chemical reaction, whether hot water is a more effective way to make the gas produce at a faster speed, it would be necessary to compare the results of different temperatures at the end of each trial. In order to do this the scientists will measure the volume of gas that is produced within a 10 second interval time after the tablet begins to react.

    Bernoulli’s theorem is a special application of the laws of motion and energy. The principle equation describes the pressure measured at any point in a fluid, which can be a gas or a liquid, to the density and the velocity of the specified flow. The theorem can be explained by the means of imagining a particle in a cylindrical pipe. If the pressure on both sides of the particle in the pipe is equal, the particle will be stationary and in equilibrium.
