Avogadro’s Law and Order: Investigating a Rocket Launch Failure
Experiment #5 from Forensic Chemistry Experiments
- Use a scale model to investigate the changes in gas pressure as fixed volumes of gas are added.
- Analyze data to develop a mathematical model that can predict the volume of gas needed to reach the pressure limit of a 2 L bottle.
- Use mathematical representations to compare the rates of change in pressure for air and carbon dioxide as fixed volumes of gas are added.
