Gas Laws, Pressure, Volume | High School
Lab: Deriving the Gas Laws: Update Mark as Favorite (15 Favorites)
In this lab, students will investigate the relationships of the variables related to gases. They will draw particle diagrams and derive equations to express these relationships. They will then combine these relationships to derive the combined gas law and the ideal gas law. Finally, they will use the molar volume of a gas at STP to derive the ideal gas constant, R.

Kinetic Molecular Theory, Gas Laws, Pressure, Volume | High School
Demonstration: Inflate and Shrink Wrap a Student Mark as Favorite (23 Favorites)
In this demonstration, students will observe two situations. First a student will be lifted off the desk as other students blow air into straws connected to a garbage bag in order to inflate it. Secondly, the class will observe a garbage bag shrink wrapping a student as a vacuum removes air from the bag.
