Gas Laws Practice

Practice




Airbag Lab



The lab was inflating a Ziploc bag with carbon dioxide from the chemical reaction of vinegar and baking soda. It was a bit stressful as I had to rely on my own accuracy of my procedure and measurments. Sadly, my measurements were off and my bag did not fully inflate.

Quiz Reflection



We took a quiz on gas laws. The quiz was not that bad at all, and I hope I score well. The lectures we've learned so far were not too hard and only consisted of formulas. I am looking forward to our next lessons.

We had another lecture for the gas laws unit. This was yet another formula lecture, one that was not difficult at all and mostly involved basic plug-n-chug. I am really nervous for the lab on Monday as it is pass-fail, and I don't 100% trust myself with being accurate in my calculations.

Lectures

The gas laws unit has proven to be pretty straightforward and simple. The first lectures we've had are centered on one major formula: the combined gas law formula. We've gone through various different problems concerning the gas law, only with different constants. Additionally, we've learned different units of pressure, which I believe is the only difficult part of this unit: memorizing all the different conversions and units.
