    The document describes an experiment that demonstrates Charles's Law by using a soda can filled with water. The experiment involves filling a soda can with water, boiling the can to produce water vapor, transferring the heated can to cold water to condense the vapor, and crushing the can as the lower internal pressure causes the higher external air pressure to crush the can. The experiment shows how gases expand when heated as the water vapor takes up more space, and contract when cooled as the vapor condenses, leaving lower pressure inside the can.

    GAS LAW

    EXPERIMENT

    Created by Chen Xian Yang 4ST2


    THE CAN CRUSHER

     The can crusher experiment demonstrates Charles’s


    Law, the basic principle that gases expand when heated
    and contract when cooled
    CHARLES LAW
    Definition:
    Volume of gas(V) is
    directly proportional to
    the absolute
    temperature of gas(T) 
    INGREDIENT
    S
     Cold water
     Tongs
     Soda can
     Frying pan
    Fill Fill the soda can with about half an ounce of water. 

    Boil Boil the can in a pan of water for about a minute vapor will steam
    from the opening of the soda can.  PROCEDURE

    Transfer Using tongs, grab the can and place it upside down in a bowl of
    cold water. 

    Crush The can will crush immediately.


    FILL BOIL TRANSFER
    CRUSH
     The water vapor exits the can immediately, and cold
    water condenses the vapor, leaving the can at very low
    EXPLANATION pressure inside. It happens so quickly that the normal air
    pressure outside the can crushes the exterior of the can.
