Charles’ Law and Absolute Zero Date of experiment: November 4‚ 2010 Date submitted: November 11‚ 2010 Introduction: As per Charles’ Law‚ there is a linear relationship between the temperature and volume of a gas. Charles discovered that -273°C is the point at which a gas has no volume. Since that’s as cold as he thought things could ever get‚ that originated the idea of absolute zero. In this experiment‚ Charles’ Law was applied and made into data to determine an experimental value for Absolute

Using Charles’ Law to Determine Absolute Zero Background Info It is noticed that in this lab‚ as the temperature of the water in the beaker is increased‚ the distance between the pipette and water plug increases. When this distance increases‚ the volume of trapped gas also increases. This relates to Charles’ Law as it shows that the volume of a gas is positively proportional to temperature. Theoretically‚ absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature‚ where all molecules have the least possible

During the seventeenth century in England‚ outside temperatures reached so low during the winter that it is actually considered to be a “mini ice age” by scientists today. During this time‚ people were still somewhat fatalistic and believed that cold was an act of god‚ and that people should just leave it alone. That was until an alchemist named Cornelius Drebbel came along. Drebbel bet the King he could turn summer into winter by chilling the air in the Great Hall of Westminster. Drebbel did

1 Visit the following URL: What is absolute zero? A According to this website‚ what is the definition of "absolute zero"? Ans: Absolute Zero‚ is when the molecules of the object can no longer oscillate/shake‚ due to the temperature being too cold‚ that kinetic energy Is too weak to do anything. The time when the oscalation is slowed to the point it can no longer be slowed down‚ that is when it has reached “absolute zero”‚ but even then‚ oscalation can never really be put to a stop. B Why is the

Absolute Zero. Aim: i) To find the relationship between Temperature and Volume when heating a gas. ii) To find the of absolute zero temperature‚ i.e. 0 Kelvin (-273.15°C). Variables: Dependant Variable: Volume Independent Variable: Temperature Hypothesis: The volume of the water will increase as temperature increases‚ since the distance of the particles in the water between each other increases‚ making the water "expand"‚ increasing the volume of the water. Apparatus & Materials: 1000mL

Behavior of Gases and Absolute Zero Determination Lab 4 Summary of Concepts: Through this experiment we will be investigating the differences between the gas laws. We will investigate the relationships between pressure‚ volume‚ and temperature. By the end of the experiment we will have data to prove the gas laws. The Gas Laws we will be investigating are as follows: Boyle’s Law: PV=C Charles’ Law: V/T=C Gay-Lussac’s Law: P/T=C Avogadro’s Law V/n=C Ideal Gas law: PV=nRT http://chemistry

from which the principle of the categorical imperative is derived. This categorical imperative is the supreme moral law‚ and according to Kant‚ it is absolute. For example‚ a maxim like “I must not lie” might be extrapolated into the imperative “Do not lie” according to Kant’s formulation. However‚ the concept of absolute moral law faces a problem in a case in which multiple moral laws run counter to each other. The famous “murderer at the door” problem is an example of this situation. A murderer
