    Objective:  To determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature.    Introduction:   The  relationship of pressure to  volume  for a gas in a rigid container was first described in  1662  by  the Irish­born  scientist  Sir  Robert  Boyle  (1627­1691)‚  and  is  known  as  Boyle’s  Law.  As long  as the temperature of  the gas  remains constant‚ the pressure of a gas has a predictable relationship with the volume of the gas.    The  pressure  of  a  gas  is  a  measure  of

Note that the boiling point may be different than 100°C if the atmospheric pressure is not 760 Torr. The current atmospheric pressure for the day can be checked by selecting Pressure on the LED meter on the wall. 5. Drag the weigh paper to the calorimeter and add the NaCl. Wait 30 seconds for the salt to dissolve and then turn on the heater. When steam first appears

    experimentally determine the Universal Gas Constant “R”. Amedeo Avogadro hypothesized that all gases of equal volume‚ temperature and pressure would contain equal amounts of moles. This idea that volume is directly proportional to moles sprung from other similar hypotheses. Robert Boyle found that pressure and volume are inversely proportional‚ meaning as pressure increases‚ volume decreases and visa versa. P1V1=P2V2

    the volume of the thoracic cavity‚ and the intercostal muscles contract‚ which makes the rib cage move upward and forward increasing the volume of the lungs. The increase in pressure inside the lungs makes the air from the atmosphere move into the lungs because air always moves from an area of high pressure to a low pressure area. During expiration‚ the intercostal muscles that lift the rib cage and the diaphragm relax. As a result‚ the rib cage and the diaphragm return to their original positions
