Learning objectives & resources for: Gas laws and kinetic theory
In this large unit, students will be able to:
1) Properly apply Boyle's law, Charles' law, Gay-Lussac law, Dalton's law of partial pressure independently or collectively the combined gas law to various situations to determine the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas when conditions change.
2) Use data from eudiometer readings to determine the pressure of a gas.
3) Properly apply Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure to determine the pressure of a dry gas, which will be used to perform both combined and ideal gas law calculations. The Crash Course Chemistry video on this is here.
4) Use the ideal gas law to determine a pressure, amount, volume, or temperature of a gas when given a set of conditions. The Crash Course Chemistry video discussing the ideal gas law is here, the video for how to solve ideal gas law problems is here.
5) Perform multiple labs to investigate the combined and ideal gas laws, including data from gases collected over water.
6) Use an inquiry technique to discover the correlation between the R value of the ideal gas law and the 22.4 liters per mole ratio that exists at STP.
7) Discuss the effusion properties of gases. Crash Course Chemistry videos are here.
8) Display an understanding of the properties of real gases. The Crash Course Chemistry video on this is here.
NOTE: For video tutorials on how to perform the above calculations, you may click on the appropriate file found in the tutorials folder below or click here for a tutorial on the combined gas law and here for a tutorial on the ideal gas law. An online tutorial for gases can also be found here.
