Investigation: Gas Laws in Action - Propane
Using helium as an example of propane, physical science middle schoolers experiment with and graph the relationship between temperature and volume in gases. In a whole-class demonstration, they show how molecules behave under different...
Curated OER
Bubble and Boyle
Middle-schoolers still enjoy playing with bubbles! In this series of eight laboratory activities, science learners explore convex and concave surfaces, angles, gas laws, buoyancy, density and more!
Curated OER
Boyle's Law Lab
In this gas lab, students use a pressurized soda bottle with a closed end syringe to simulate Boyle's Law. They alter the volume and watch the effects on the pressure of the gas. They plot their data and answer eight post lab questions.
Curated OER
Variables, Formulas, Functions, Graphs
In this function worksheet, students are given 6 short-answer problems regarding formulas vs. functions, graphing functions and different ways to view functions.
Curated OER
Gas Laws
Eighth graders use lab work and software to collect and analyze pressure and temperature data in order to illustrate the relationship between the temperature and pressure of a gas at a constant volume. They conduct a lab and organize...
