Station 4- This shows Charles Law. When the temperature of the can went down, the volume of the can went down, because the cand was crushed. This is because with the sudden change in temperature, the presssure is increased which is why the can is crushed. In Charles law Temperature and volume are directly related. When the temp goes down, the volume decreases.

Station 6- This station is an example of Boyles Law. The pressure and volume are inversly related. When you put the egg onto the mouth of the flask, the volume is constant, and the amount of pressure is increased when the temperature of the flask is decreased. The amount of pressure on the outside of the flask pushes/forces the egg into the flask. Remember the egg is NOT pulled.

Temp and Pressure- This is an example of Gay Lusaac's Law. You pressurize the bottle with air, and you check the temperature. In this law, temp and pressure are directly related so when the pressure goes up, the temperature also increases. The more air you pump, the more pressure is built up inside the bottle. This is because the all the molecules inside are pushing out on the bottle which increases pressure.

  1. T-Dog you forgot what Mrs. Sorensen said, you have to keep asking why why why. You didn't really give enough answers.

  2. Good! Maybe explain each thing just a litte more. Give a little more information to back up your reasoning.

  3. You did good job explaining the process but you need to go little more into depth.

  4. You did good with laws and explaining.
    I think you could work on realizing whats happening and writing down whats happening.
