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...

Tired of waiting for hot water? Groups of three determine the efficiency of an electric water-heating device. They calculate the amount of energy it takes to heat the water and the theoretical amount of energy required to heat the water....

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

Students determine the molecular weight of a pure gas in a balloon by using gas laws and trapping the gas in a glass bottle. Students watch the instructor demonstrate the lab on day one. On day two and three they practice the lab. On day...

At this site learn about Henry's law through this hands-on experiment. Lab instructions are complete including step-by-step pictures an worksheet.
