Principle
The state of a gas is determined by temperature, pressure and amount of substance. For the limiting case of ideal gases, these state variables are linked via the general equation of state. For a change of state under isochoric conditions this equation becomes Amontons' law. In this experiment it is investigated whether Amontons' law is valid for a constant amount of gas (air).
Benefits
Unique system: All gas laws can be measured with the same setup
Very compact setup, can be stored in the shelf and is always ready to use
Very demonstrative: Volume is read directly at the gas syringe, temperature and pressure are measured with sensors in real-time
Heating system is integrated in experiment setup
Direct and versatile measurement with Cobra SMARTsense.
Tasks
For a constant amount of gas (air) investigate the correlation of
Volume and pressure at constant temperature (Boyle and Mariotte's law)
Volume and temperature at constant pressure (Gay-Lussac's law)
Pressue and temperature at constant volume (Charles' (Amontons' law))
From the relationships obtained calculate the universal gas constant as well as the coefficient of thermal expansion, the coefficient of thermal tension, and the coefficient of cubic compressibility.
