Directions: Read/ Study all the lesson information in the 5.03 lesson then click the activity tab to perform two virtual labs. (There are recorded Teaching Videos for lesson 5.03. To view them click the “Help Sign” on the announcement page. Next scroll down to Lesson 5.03 stuff and you should see 5 part video links that will cover the lesson content.)
Virtual Lab 1- Part I: Boyle’s Law
A sample of gas is trapped in a sealed container, which has a movable lid. Moving the lid up or down will change the volume inside the container. You will use an attached manometer to measure the pressure inside the container.
Procedure:
1. Move the lid of the container up or down. Record the resulting volume and pressure

Virtual Lab Part 2: Charles’s Law
Procedure:
1. Carefully measure the volume of the trapped gas using the graduations (markings) on the side of the container.
2. Read and record the temperature of the gas using the thermometer attached to the container.
3. Use the buttons on the heater to change the temperature of the gas. The volume of the gas will change in response to the temperature change. Notice that the container is sealed and the pressure is adjusted so that it remains constant. Measure and record the volume and temperature of the contained gas.
4. Continue this process until data is obtained for at least six different temperatures. Be sure that the temperatures represent a large range of values in order to help you answer questions about the relationship between temperature and volume.
Present all relevant data in a data table below. Include an observations section for any observations you made during the lab. Make sure you note the data needs to be converted before graphing.

What buret reading should you record when the liquid level is as shown in Figure 2?
2) [6.2] In Microsoft Excel (I’ve provided an Excel spreadsheet, but you are welcome to use the spreadsheet application of your choice: Google Sheets, OpenOffice, etc.) plot a line graph of your green algae population size data to show how green algae relate to phosphorus input levels. Think about which is the dependent and which is the independent variable. Be sure to label your axes. Copy your completed graph into the
Procedure: Using distilled water, premeasured containers and objects determine displacement of fluids and density of objects. Use ice and heat measure temperatures in Celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin.
10) The tape was used to measure gas accumulation in the balloon after 1minute. Measurement and qualitative observations were recorded.
2. Determine the room’s air temperature, and also measure the diameter of the glass tube. Record the data.
Once the water is at the desired temperature, place the small lamp 5cm away from the beaker and turn it on.
3. The volume of a fixed mass of a liquid sample increases as the temperature rises from 20 to
In the fourth stage of this experiment, the density of a gas was determined. A 250ml flask was weighed with an empty rubber balloon and the mass was recorded.
5.Position gas collecting hose so it runs from reaction vessel through gas collecting box to opening of the graduated cylinder. The idea is that any gas coming through the tube will rise in the graduated cylinder and displace the water in it.
4. Remelt the contents of the tube and add the counterpart component based on the given schedule. Ask the demonstrator to adjust the cooling water between mixtures. During the experiment, record and plot the data obtained for all mixtures listed. The experiments are stopped as follows:
Create a table, and record the changes in pressure as the temperature is changed. 6. Click the volume button. 7. Predict how pressure will be affected when temperature remains constant but volume is changed.
Robert Boyle, a philosopher and theologian, studied the properties of gases in the 17th century. He noticed that gases behave similarly to springs; when compressed or expanded, they tend to ‘spring’ back to their original volume. He published his findings in 1662 in a monograph entitled The Spring of the Air and Its Effects. You will make observations similar to those of Robert Boyle and learn about the relationship between the pressure and volume of an ideal gas.
Aim: To investigate how concentration affects the volume of gas that is produced after one minute. Background Information: In this experiment hydrochloric acid is reacting with magnesium to form magnesium chloride and hydrogen, and the chemical equation goes as follows: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) = => MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) Particles must collide with each other at a certain activation energy in order for a chemical reaction to take place. Reducing the concentration reduces the amount of particles, which in turn reduces the probability of particles colliding with enough activation energy thus reducing the rate of reaction.
The mechanism that allows us to compute temperature values for pressure readings associated with a Helium filled glass bulb is based on how system properties are linked together. The purpose of using Helium gas is because Helium can remain in its gas state when surrounded by boiling liquid Nitrogen. The goal is to determine the temperature of a gas based on the pressure readings of that gas, so in order to determine a working equation, the ideal gas law will be modified to represent temperature.
1. Maintain a constant water level (head) difference between the two sides of the tank as shown in the diagram by allowing water to overflow through the overflow and outflow tubes. Measure the water level (head) difference.
