Experiment with gas trapped in an air chamber. Observe and make predictions about the effects of changing the chamber volume, or the number of gas particles, on some common objects placed inside. For example, control the size of a balloon by changing the size of the chamber. This learning object is one in a series of four objects.
Objective
1. Students predict the effect of change in container volume and particle number on objects placed within a gas.
2. Students interpret changes in gas pressure in terms of frequency of particle collisions.
3. Students interpret common phenomena resulting from air-pressure differentials.
