By the end of this section, you will be able to interpret a phase diagram; state Dalton's law; identify and describe the triple point of a gas from its phase diagram; and describe the state of equilibrium between a liquid and a gas, a...

Learn how pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount of a gas are related to each other.

Determine the temperature required to keep a piston in equilibrium. You must use information about the speed of the atoms in the left hand chamber to help you find the equilibrium pressure.

This passage explains the pressure regulation and fluid dynamics of the human respiratory. Complete a five-question quiz over the information in the passage.

Hold onto your hats. In this science fair project, you will make a device that sends a film canister across the room with a small chemical explosion. The energy for the explosion is derived from the combustion of ethanol. You will...

This is a glossary of terms and definitions used in Chapter 13: Temperature, Kinetic Theory, and the Gas Laws from the AP Physics online text.

Charles' law is derived from the ideal gas law. An equation of the ideal gas law under pressure constraints is given and the derivation is explained.
