Calculations:

  1. One way to determine if a relationship is inverse or direct is to find a proportionality constant, k, from the data. If this relationship is direct, k = P/T. If it is inverse, k = PT. Choose one of these formulas and calculate k for the pairs in your data table (divide or multiply the P and T values). Record the answers in the fourth column of the Data table. 
  2. How constant were the values for k you obtained in Question 4? Good data may show some minor variation, but the values for k should be relatively constant.  Comment on your calculated k values.

Analysis Questions:

  1. What does temperature measure?

 

  1. Look at your graph.  What type of relationship is there between temperature and pressure?  Write a statement that explains this relationship.

 

  1. When you look at your graph, when the temperature is zero, there is still pressure.  Therefore, the line does not cross at (0,0).  Where did your line cross?

 

  1. The ratio of P/T=m should be a constant amount.  But if we do the math, it doesn’t work out. Calculate the third column in the table below:

Pressure (mmHg)

Temperature (Celsius)

P/T
