In this chemical reactions learning exercise, learners determine how mixtures shift toward reactants or products to reach equilibrium. For given reactions, students determine how concentrations will change when adding or removing gases...

Students experience pressure as a force per unit area in this experiment with a board of nails. In this physics instructional activity, students discover Boyle's law as they perform experiments with pressure.

Students will observe a property of water. In this inquiry-based properties of air lesson, students observe how a change in water pressure impacts the positioning of an eye-dropper in the water container and they make hypotheses about...

In this equilibrium worksheet, students solve eight problems including determining the effects of changes to a system as it related to Le Chatelier Principle, calculating equilibrium constants and finding boiling points of solutions.

Sixth in a series of 36, this lesson focuses on gases and their behavior in given situations. Learners review the states of matter and then focus on gases, specifically learning Boyle's, Charles's, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's, and Graham's...

What is a chemist's favorite plant? Stoichiome Tree! Scholars produce hydrogen gas by reacting magnesium with hydrochloric acid. Then they calculate the molar volume of the gas produced before answering assessment questions. 

A couple of gas law charts and the history of the gas laws constitute this presentation. Notes are included for the slide that illustrates how to perform gas law calculations. This is a simple collection, a visual aid enhance to your...

In this worksheet, students calculate the density, molar mass, and volume of given word problems. Students also calculate the partial pressure of the gases given in the particular problem.

In this acid/base and equilibrium worksheet, students solve seven problems including calculating equilibrium concentrations of all species in a reaction, calculating the pH of solutions, determining the direction of a reaction at...

Students research to answer questions related to deep sea diving. In this deep sea diving lesson, students answer questions on a worksheet using the Internet. They discuss pressure, gas laws, and the physiology of diving in the deep sea.

Students describe the effects of temperature and pressure on solubility of gases and other materials.  For this investigative lesson students read an article and answer questions about it. 

Students use fundamental relationships between melting points, boiling points, solubility, temperature and pressure to develop explanations.  In this chemistry lesson students complete an activity. 

How can you launch an object that isn't propelled by air? The resource provides directions to build a launcher to launch rockets made of two-liter bottles. The launcher, built mainly from materials found at the local hardware...

Students observe methods by which air can crush aluminum cans. As water in the can boils and is sealed, the can collapses as it cools. When the procedure is reversed, the can expands to its original shape. After the alternate experiment,...

In this gas laws instructional activity, students define an ideal gas and apply the gas laws to complete 1 short answer question and 5 word problems.

Students interpret phase diagrams and explain the meaning of vocabulary words.  In this ocean explorer lesson students describe two uses of super-critical carbon dioxide. 

Earth's atmosphere is full of different energies, from thermal to wind to electromagnetic radiation. Through the presentation, class members discover these energies and how they determine weather patterns.

A remotely operated vehicle approaching a volcano was engulfed by molten sulfur where the plumes of fluids contained the highest concentrations of aluminum ever recorded. This isn't science fiction or an April fools joke, though it did...

Students define several laws of pressure and see how they relate to scuba diving.  In this ocean explorer lesson students answer questions and complete an activity.
