Understanding Boyle's Law and Gas Behavior

What does Boyle's Law state about pressure and volume in a closed system?

• They are unrelated

• They are directly proportional

• They are constant

• They are inversely proportional

What equipment is necessary for the Boyle's Law experiment described?

• A barometer and flask

• A pipette and test tube

• A thermometer and beaker

• A large syringe and water balloons

What is the purpose of placing your finger over the opening of the syringe in the experiment?

• To measure the temperature

• To add more gas

• To maintain a closed system

• To increase the heat

What happens to the balloon inside the syringe when the plunger is pushed down?

• It explodes

• It remains the same

• It expands

• It shrinks

What type of gas behavior does the experiment demonstrate?

• Solid behavior

• Ideal gas behavior

• Liquid behavior

• Real gas behavior

What should you wear for safety during the experiment?

• Gloves and goggles

• An apron and eye protection

• A lab coat and safety boots

• A helmet and knee pads

What is the relationship between pressure and volume according to Boyle's Law?

• Unrelated

• Constant

• Inversely proportional

• Directly proportional

What happens when you pull the plunger upwards after placing it at the lowest point?

• The balloon changes color

• The balloon stays the same size

• The balloon decreases in size

• The balloon increases in size

Why is it important to keep the mass of air molecules constant in the experiment?

• To decrease temperature

• To increase pressure

• To create a vacuum

• To follow Boyle's Law

What does an ideal gas consist of?

• A set of randomly moving interacting particles

• A set of stationary non-interacting particles

• A set of randomly moving non-interacting particles

• A set of orderly moving interacting particles
