Use a pressure sensor to measure the pressure of an air sample at several different temperatures. Measure temperature. Make a table of the results. Graph the results. Predict the pressure at other temperatures. Describe the relationship between gas pressure and temperature with words and with a mathematical equation.

Study the relationship between the temperature of a gas sample and the pressure it exerts. Determine from the data and graph, the mathematical relationship between the pressure and absolute temperature of a confined gas.

In this experiment, you will study the relationship between the temperature of a gas sample and the pressure it exerts. Using the apparatus shown in Figure 1, you will place an Erlenmeyer flask containing an air sample in water baths of varying temperature.

The experiment involves an air-filled flask that is equipped with a pressure sensor. The flask is sealed and rigid, preventing changes in the volume and the number of moles of gas. A thermometer is used to measure temperature.

Use a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor to determine how temperature, volume, and amount of a gas affect pressure.

1. Immerse the metal ball of the apparatus in each of the various beakers of water – Record the temperature of the water and the pressure reading on the apparatus. 2. Convert each temperature value to Kelvin. Observations: Describe how Temperature changes affect Pressure Data Table: Temperature of Water ( C) Temperature of Water (K) Pressure

Explore the relationship between gas pressure and temperature with this lab experiment. Ideal for high school physics students.

In this experiment, you will measure the pressure of water as a function of depth, investigate the buoyant force exerted by water on submerged objects, and use ideal-gas-law properties of air to deduce and calculate the coldest possible temperature, called absolute zero.

Part of the Eisco series of hand held sensors, the pressure sensor allows students to record and graph data in experiments on the go. This sensor can be used to monitor chemical reactions that involve gases and to investigate both Boyle’s Law and the Gay-Lussac’s Law for ideal gases.

The objectives of this experiment are • introduce the concepts and units of pressure, volume and temperature. • experimentally determine the relationship between temperature and pressure, using the MicroLAB interface system to collect and analyze the data. INTRODUCTION
