Lesson Plan

Temperature Affects the Solubility of Gases

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Dare your class to drive dissolved carbon dioxide out of carbonated liquid at different temperatures to discover if there is a difference in rate. To make this experiment more sound, have explorers use equally measured amounts of soda and use a stopwatch to time how long each bubbles. Also, make sure to consider doing the demonstration that is meant to precede the activity; you can find it in the unit manual, Inquiry in Action - Investigating Matter Through Inquiry.
