Gas Pressure Teacher Resources

Exactly what causes the the pain you feel when diving to the deep end of a pool? Find out with this short video that explores the physical laws governing the behavior of gases and the ways they affect marine life...

Learners examine Boyle's Law by analyzing experimental results with a hands-on lesson that provides a set of four experiments that illustrate the relationship between pressure and volume of gases. Groups analyze results using...

Temperature, pressure, and volume, oh my! Learn how one quality of gas affects the others with a video that includes worked out problems that use the Gas Laws with solutions.

When a child lets go of a helium balloon, what happens to it? Does it float all the way to space? The simulator allows pupils to experiment on party balloons and weather balloons under different conditions to see what happens to them in...

Balloons bring great fun to the classroom, until they break. What's a teacher to do then? Break out the balloon of the computer age with a fun interactive! Science scholars add and remove atoms from their virtual balloons and observe...

Is it me, or is it getting hot in here? Middle school science sleuths investigate the relationship between temperature and pressure, then use their observations to form a hypothesis. Questions embedded in the interactive help guide...

Sometimes a little pressure isn't a bad thing! A collaborative instructional activity uses models to demonstrate how air pressure inflates and deflates the lungs. Participants use everyday materials to create models of the chest cavity...

What makes gases so unique? Physical science sleuths uncover the facts about gases in a short video. The narrator compares gases to solids and liquids in terms of space between particles, compressibility, and reaction to temperature...

Up, up, and away! Teach your class the science behind hot air balloons when by showing them the short video segment describing the physics of how they remain in the air and travel distances through different atmospheric...

Learners examine the factors that affect reaction rates in the sixth lesson in a 35-part video series. The video instructor explains the different factors that change reaction rates, and the connection between volume, pressure, and...

Whether you're using a collection of Dr. Seuss books to teach basic math skills like counting, adding, and subtracting, or exploring the different states of matter by melting a crayon with a hairdryer, a series...

A penny can be a much more valuable teaching tool that you might think. Whether you are teaching about chemical reactions, surface tension, the behavior of gases, or are just looking for engaging activities for early finishers,...

In this chemistry instructional activity, learners identify and explain what Boyle's Law is and what it changes. Then they describe Charles' Law and how the temperature of gas changes so does the volume.

In this Charles' Law worksheet, students respond to several short answer questions as they pertain to Charles' Law. they calculate the decrease in temperature when it is compressed a specific amount. Students also determine the volume...

Energy conservers investigate gravel size to discover if it impacts the amount of oil recovered in the extraction process. 

This extensive collection of slides begins with diagrams of molecules undergoing evaporation, progresses through methods of measuring pressure, demonstrates how to perform pressure calculations, and then explores the temperature-pressure...

Although the title is States of Matter, this presentation is a collection of 4 slides just dealing with gas particle behavior, pressure and the Laws of Boyles and Charles and Gay-Lussac.

Not quite a star, not quite a planet ... what are brown dwarfs? Young astronomers learn the peculiarities of these heavenly bodies through a short video. The narrator explains the characteristics of brown dwarfs and the different types....

In this Boyle's Law worksheet, learners investigate the relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas at constant temperature. They use a syringe and a pressure gauge attached to a computer to collect their data. They create...

Pupils explore linear functions in this lesson when they collect and analyze data as a chemical reaction proceeds. Learners record pressure versus time data and model the data as a linear function. They also examine the concept of slope...

Fourth graders investigate the third law of motion. In this third law of motion lesson plan, 4th graders explore the forces necessary for a rocket to launch. Students compare and contrast propellant and fuel. Numerous resources are...

Seventh graders investigate the particulate level of solids, liquids, and gases. They examine how the particle method show the interplay between scientific theories and evidence.

In this idea gas worksheet, students review Dalton's law of partial pressures, vapor pressure, relative humidity, and dew point. Students answer 3 problems.

In this Boyles' Law worksheet, students answer volume questions given the temperature and pressure of various gasses. In addition to computing the mathematical volume of gas, students provide answers to questions regarding the story...
