    This document provides instructions for an experiment to demonstrate Charles' Law, which states that the volume of a gas varies inversely with its temperature when pressure is kept constant. The experiment uses flasks, a hot plate, a balloon, water, ice, and a cooler to show that a balloon will expand when placed over a flask of heated water due to increasing gas volume, and contract when placed over cooled water due to decreasing gas volume. Students are asked questions about their observations and how the experiment relates to Charles' Law.

    Volume & Temperature- Charles Law

    Objective: You will be able to describe and calculate the relations between
    volume and temperature for Charles' Law

    MATERIALS:
     Flasks
     Hot Plate
     Balloon
     Water (75 mL)
     Ice
     Cooler

    PROCEDURES:
    1. Turn on the hot plate and place the ice on the cooler
    2. Pour 75 ml of water into the flask
    3. Place the balloon on the opening of the flask
    4. Place the flask carefully into the hot plate
    5. Once the balloon has expanded carefully move it into the cooler
    6. Observe
    Questions
    1. What happen to the balloon when placed on the hot plate? Why?

    2. What happened to the balloon when placed on the cooler? Why?

    Class Discussion
    How does this experiment relate to Charles Law?
    Would making a modification on the amount of water used change the results?
    Why or why not?
