Experiment 4: Behavior of Gases Introduction: In this experiment‚ the problem trying to be solved is what gas laws are being used when the pressure‚ temperature‚ and volume are being measured. The three gas laws are Boyle’s Law‚ Charle’s Law‚ and Gay-Lussac’s Law. The Boyle’s Law is when volume and pressure are being compared. Pressure and volume are inversely proportional‚ because when pressure goes up‚ volume goes down. The Charle’s Law is when volume and temperature are compared. Volume and

"Kingly Gases" What is chemistry? According to dictionary.com‚ the definition of chemistry- is the science that deals with the composition and properties of substances and various elementary forms of matter. Chemistry is everywhere. For example: in a kitchen‚ it is in everybody’s chemically treated water‚ or fruits grown with fertilizers and pesticides‚ or polymer material in the marble counter tops. Again‚ Chemistry is everywhere. If a person wanted to go deeper into chemistry‚ they probably would

greenhouse effect in is the entrapment of the sun’s heat energy in the earth’s atmosphere. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ methane‚ and nitrous oxides are all gases that contribute to this phenomenon. Carbon dioxide is the most abundant greenhouse gas while water vapor the least harmful gas makes up less than one percent of the gases in the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases are produced naturally by the earth for example carbon dioxide‚ and methane is produced from the waste

Derricka Joe Period 5 1 Oct.‚ 2014 Lab Experiment One: Physical Properties Lab Analysis: For our first unknown‚ we observed the color and odor of the substance. The substance was a clumpy‚ white‚ crystal-like substance and it smells like new plastic. When we tested the solubility in water it resulted insoluble and in ethanol it resulted soluble. This substance could not be tested for electrical conductivity because the water was insoluble. We then tested for the PH value and it was neutral. The

Section 3: Procedure In this experiment‚ I observed substances in their natural state‚ and recorded their apparent physical properties. I then tested the substances to determine how they react when their natural environments were altered. The pure substances were tested to see

ObreroDate: October 7‚ 2014 Section: 116 Behavior of Gases and Determination of Absolute Zero Experiments 4&5 Introduction: First of all‚ the Boyle’s law (pressure-volume law) indicates that the volume of a certain amount of gas given held at a constant temperature differentiates inversely with the applied pressure when there are constant temperature and mass. Equations: PV=C. When pressure goes up‚ volume goes down (derived from the equation above): P1V1 = P2V2 =

Experiment 2 Behavior of Gases PURPOSE This experiment has two parts. The purpose of part A of the experiment is to determine the atomic mass of a metallic element whereas the purpose of part B of the experiment is to determine the rate of diffusion of both gases hydrogen chloride and ammonia by measuring the distances travelled by the two gases in the same time period. For part A the reaction of the metal with the aqueous acid is as follows: M(s) + n H3O+ -----> M+n(aq) + n/2 H2(g) +

Inert Gases Inert Gases and Characteristics • The inert gases are obtained by fractional distillation of air. • They are often used aboard chemical tankers and product carriers (smaller vessels). • Helium‚ Neon‚ Argon‚ Krypton‚ Xenon‚ Radon and are inert gases. • Duplet (Helium) or Octet • Full valence shell • • • • Weak interatomic force Very low melting and boiling points. Monatomic gases under standard conditions Helium has several unique qualities when compared with

Nobel gases are a group of six elements in group VIIIA of the periodic table; they are in the column farthest to the right. It is a collection of five elements: argon‚ helium‚ krypton‚ neon‚ radon‚ and xenon. Unlike most elements‚ the noble gases are monatomic‚ which means the element is a single atom instead of being in pairs or a combination. The atoms have stable configurations of electrons. In other words‚ under normal conditions they do not form compounds with other elements. They got there

events like super-storm Sandy continue to increase in their frequency and severity? Many modern scientists attribute these dangerous environmental trends of global warming to the ‘greenhouse effect’. The ‘greenhouse effect’ results from greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide rising into the atmosphere‚ trapping infrared radiation from the sun‚ and emitting ultraviolet radiation that can puncture the earth’s stratospheric ozone layer. A healthy ozone layer should prevent this from happening‚ but the
