Look at your pressure readings; how do the wall collisions and the pressure readings compare? Is there a relationship between the two? If so, what is the relationship?

• There is no relationship between wall collisions and pressure readings.

• Wall collisions increase as pressure readings increase.

• Wall collisions decrease as pressure readings increase.

• Wall collisions remain constant regardless of pressure readings.

Based on your answer to #5, what would be a good definition of Pressure in terms of gas particles and wall collisions?

• Pressure is the force exerted by gas particles per unit area on the walls of the container.

• Pressure is the volume occupied by gas particles in a container.

• Pressure is the temperature of gas particles in a container.

• Pressure is the weight of gas particles in a container.

How do temperature and pressure compare in your charts above? Is there a relationship between these variables?

• Temperature and pressure are directly proportional.

• Temperature and pressure are inversely proportional.

• There is no relationship between temperature and pressure.

• The relationship varies depending on other factors.

Absolute Zero: What happens to Temperature, pressure, and movement when you change the temperature to zero Kelvin?

• Temperature becomes zero, pressure drops to zero, and molecular movement stops.

• Temperature becomes zero, pressure increases, and molecular movement increases.

• Temperature remains constant, pressure drops to zero, and molecular movement stops.

• Temperature becomes zero, pressure drops to zero, and molecular movement increases.

Absolute Zero: Based on this information, How would you describe absolute zero to someone who is new to this class?

• The temperature at which all molecular motion stops

• The point where water freezes

• The average temperature of outer space

• The temperature at which water boils

Absolute Zero: What do you think: Is it possible to reach absolute zero?

• Yes, it is possible to reach absolute zero.

• No, it is not possible to reach absolute zero.

• It is theoretically possible but practically impossible.

• It is possible under certain conditions.

How did the KINETIC energy of our particles change with temperature?

• It increased with temperature.

• It decreased with temperature.

• It remained constant.

• It fluctuated randomly.
