Using helium as an example of propane, physical science middle schoolers experiment with and graph the relationship between temperature and volume in gases. In a whole-class demonstration, they show how molecules behave under different...

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...

This online calculator allows the student to solve for either Pressure or Volume. Other features include a tutorial explaining Boyle's law.

The primary objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a confined gas. The gas we use will be air, and it will be confined in a syringe connected to a Pressure Sensor (see Figure 1)....

An inexpensive and effective setup for Boyle's law. The students experiment and perform data analysis to "discover" Boyle's Law.

This is a modern version of a classic experiment by Robert Boyle on the compressibility of gases. Boyle discovered the relationship between pressure and volume of gases that now bears his name. This project shows you a simple method for...

A page from the University of Maryland Physics Lecture Demonstration Facility. Provides directions for a teacher demonstration of Boyle's law. Shows apparatus and set-up; provides suggestions. Easily adaptable as a student project or lab...

Observe the law of gases with this interactive exercise.

Working as teams, students learn the basics of fluid power design using the PFPD as their investigative platform. Students will investigate the similarities and differences between using pneumatic and hydraulic power in the PFPD. While...

In this experiment students observe a combustion reaction and deduce the components necessary for the reaction to occur. They also see the relationship between pressure, volume, and number of molecules for gases.

Investigate the physical force exerted upon organisms and objects by the environment, and relate pressure to depth in deep-sea exploration. Experiment to discover the impact of pressure on the lungs.
