1.
Select the “Boyle’s Law” tab to begin; it will be shown in white.
The picture below
will be seen on the screen.
Boyle’s Law Setup
2.
Using the pressure control knob, increase the pressure of the gas.
Observe the
changes in the volume as pressure is increased and decreased.
3.
Using the same method as the Charles’s Law simulation previously completed,
add the following data points at pressures equal to P
2
= 1.5 atm, P
3
=2.0 atm, P
4
=
2.5 atm, and P
5
=
2.9 atm.
Calculate the corresponding volumes.
4.
There are now five data points on the graph. Take a screenshot of the simulation
and insert it at the end of this assignment
.
Same as the Charles’s Law lab.
5.
Use Excel (or a similar program) to plot the data points for volume (y-axis) vs
temperature (x-axis).
Be sure to include units.
Insert a copy of the graph at the
end of the post-lab assignment
.
Same as the Charles’s Law lab.
6.
Based on the data points collected on the graph, make a statement about the
trend that can be observed between the volume and pressure of a gas. Is Boyle’s
Law considered a direct or an indirect relationship between the variables?
Explain with reasoning.
