Journal Entry:

Under which of the following conditions would the predictions made by the ideal gas law be most accurate for a real gas?
(A) Low pressure and temperature
(B) High pressure and temperature
(C) High pressure and low temperature
(D) Low pressure and high temperature

Learning Intentions

• We will learn what variables affect properties of a gas.

• We will learn how the variables affect the properties of a gas by using a syringe and Vernier gas pressure sensor. 

• We will learn determine mathematical relationships between variables in gases.

• We will create particle drawing and graphs to represent the relationship between variables in gases.

Closing Task:

You can determine the mathematical relationships between variables in gases.

You can create a particle drawing to represent relationship between variables.

Content Standards being covered:

The gaseous state can be effectively modeled with a mathematical equation relating various macroscopic properties. A gas has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape, because the effects of attractive forces are minimal, we usually assume that the particles move independently. (E.K. 2.A.2)
