In this section of the lab we were testing how the volume of the test tube changes as the temperature does. To do this, we got a test tube and clogged the end at the middle position on the test tube. This was the spot that it sat on at room temperature. Then we stuck it into cold and hot temperatures and measured the position of the volume on the test tube. As you can see the temperature and volume correspond and go up and down in since with each other. As the temperature raises so does the volume of the test tube. As you can see it was almost a perfect line on how much the volume increases with the temperature increase.
In this section of the lab we were testing the pressure change in the test tube when we changed the temperature. To do this, we got a test tube, and hooked it up to the computer that reads pressure. Then we also stuck a thermometer into the different temperatures to read them. As you see in the graph as the temperature increased so did the pressure, because of the molecules bouncing faster. Then when we cooled it down the molecules slowed down causing the pressure to slow down.
This is the last section of the lab, and probably the most common sense. In this portion what we did was clog the end of the test tube and move the the volume to different portions. As you see in the graph, as the volume gets smaller the pressure gets greater. Which makes perfect sense because you have the same number of particles in a tighter space. This was a great lab and showed many results. It was a successful lab, because it proved all the laws correct. Meaning that we had good data and did the sections correctly.
