Introduction
Pressure is directly proportional to temperature. This is because according to PV=nRT
- Notes:
- The 1000 mL beaker is not necessary, others that can be used are the 600mL and 400mL
- Be Sure to push the stopper on the flask during the hottest test. If you don't the stopper will pop off.
Questions
- What is the graph correspondance to the line? Why is it slightly off?
- Would the measurments be any different if the container was bigger?
- Why would the stopper pop off?
- Why does the temperature increase if the pressure increase? Explain using effective collisions.
Calculations:
- Calculate the theoretical pressure at 100C or 373K
- After adding 26.3 grams of N2 to a 3.4 liter flask it is heated to 56C. Calculate the pressure.
- Change your answer in part two from atmospheres to kPa and Psi
