This document describes an experiment on thermodynamics investigating the compression and depression of an ideal gas at constant volume. The experiment aims to apply concepts of the ideal gas law relating temperature, volume, and pressure. Students will collect data on temperature, pressure, and volume over time while compressing and depressing a gas using a TEPGC unit and connected tanks. Safety precautions must be followed, and the experiment is to be conducted under supervision. Results tables show the recorded measurements for temperature, pressure in two tanks of different volumes over intervals of time.

EXPERIMENT : THERMODYNAMICS IDEAL GAS


TITLE : COMPRESSION AND DEPRESSION AT CONSTANT VOLUME
DURATION : 2 HOURS
1.0 Experiment outcome
Thermodynamics is a basic engineering science course that introduces and
applies fundamental concepts of thermodynamics. Thermodynamics is the
study of work, heat, and energy, and the rules which govern how each of
these is transformed into the others. The course explores relationship
between properties of matter and basic laws of thermodynamics, which are
fundamental laws of nature governing the behavior of all physical systems.
Mathematical models of these physicals laws are presented and applied to
systems involving pure compressible substances. These principles are used
to analyze energy conversion process, cycles, devices and systems.
Economic, environmental, sustainability and political implications are
discussed to provide a context or the technical material.
To investigate the compression and depression at constant volume.

Theory

The main distinguishing property of gases is their uncanny ability to be


compressed into smaller and smaller spaces. Gases are also the least
complex state of matter. The ideal gas law relates temperature, volume, and
pressure, so that we can calculate any one of these quantities in terms of the
other.
Gases are easily expanded and compressible unlike solids and liquids. Gases
have a measurements of pressure. Pressure is defined as force exerted per
unit area of surface. It can be measurements in several units such as
kilopascal (kPa), atmospheres (atm), and millimetres of Mercury (mmHg).

Gas has a low density because its molecules are spread apart over a large
volume. A gas will fill whatever container that is in.
