Solubility, Solute & Solvent, Concentration, Pressure, Temperature | High School
Demonstration: Exploring Gas Solubility Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)
In this demonstration, students will explore how changes in pressure and temperature affect the solubility of a gas in an aqueous solution. In addition, students will have the opportunity in a post-demonstration reflection activity to practice using data (in this case their demonstration observations) to make evidence based claims.

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.
-
Gas Laws, Pressure, Volume, History | Middle School, High School
Activity: Robert Boyle Video Questions Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)
In this activity, students will watch a video and answer questions about Robert Boyle. They will learn about his impact in chemistry, including Boyle’s Law which describes the relationship between pressure and volume of a gas.
-
Pressure, Temperature | Elementary School, Middle School
Demonstration: EGGsperiment Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this demonstration, students will learn how temperature change affects air pressure, while observing an egg getting sucked into a bottle without being touched!

Gas Laws, Pressure, Volume, History | Elementary School, Middle School, High School
Video: Robert Boyle Video Mark as Favorite (14 Favorites)
This video tells the story of Robert Boyle, a great chemist and discoverer of Boyle's Law, which describes the relationship between pressure and volume of a gas.
-
Gas Laws, Pressure, Temperature, Volume, Kinetic Molecular Theory | Middle School, High School
Animation: Gases Animation Mark as Favorite (13 Favorites)
In this animation, students will visualize how volume, temperature, and quality of a gas are related. This is done qualitatively and quantitatively. **This video has no audio**
-
Pressure | Elementary School
Demonstration: The Power of Air Pressure Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this demonstration, students will learn to appreciate the power of air pressure.
-
Gas Laws, Pressure, Volume | Elementary School
Lab: The Growing Marshmallow Mark as Favorite (2 Favorites)
In this lab, students will investigate the relationship between volume and pressure of a gas, using a plastic syringe and a marshmallow.
-
Pressure, Gas Laws, Kinetic Molecular Theory, Temperature, Volume, Molecular Motion, Intermolecular Forces | High School
Lab: Gas Pressure Mark as Favorite (9 Favorites)
In this lab, students will understand what causes pressure in a container and the variables that affect pressure (volume, temperature, number of moles) by mimicking molecular motion of gases.
-
Kinetic Molecular Theory, Pressure, Gas Laws | High School, Middle School
Simulation: Gas Law Variables Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)
In this simulation, students investigate variables of a gas. From the computer models, they can see how pressure, temperature, and volume effect gas behavior.
-
Chemical Change, Pressure, Reaction Rate, Acid Base Reactions, Chemical Change, Conservation of Matter | Elementary School, Middle School
Lab: Rocket Challenge Mark as Favorite (3 Favorites)
In this lab, students will have the opportunity to construct a rocket, with the challenges of both designing it and preparing a chemical reaction for its “fuel” in order to propel the rocket over the furthest distance. Students will investigate available materials, quantities and ratios during allotted planning and testing phases. Student will record their plans, modifications and designs during the process. The lab will culminate with a competition amongst students to see whose rocket will travel the longest distance.
-
Gas Laws, Matter, Density, Density, Temperature, Pressure, Volume, Graphing, Observations, Measurements | High School
Lab: Pressure Bottle Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)
In this lab, students determine the relationship between volume and pressure of a gas and its temperature and address the common misconception that air does not have mass or density.
-
Renewable Energy, Conservation of Mass, Chemical Change, Volume, Pressure | Middle School, High School
Lab: Power That Stinks Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)
In this lab, students will experiment with creating and capturing biogas, and have an opportunity to look at how energy is created from waste. They will explore the differences between non-renewable and renewable energy sources.
