Philip harris Boyle's Law Apparatus - Horizontal Mount
Philip harris Boyle's Law Apparatus - Horizontal Mount
Product code: A1008728
Product Description
The apparatus consists of a horizontally mounted acrylic tube with a graduated scale along one side (scale graduated from 0 to 270cm³). The tube unit is sealed by a standard gas tap next to which is mounted a standard pressure gauge. The effective length of the tube is controlled by altering the position of a rubber stopper which is moved via a screw thread. Users can select the effective length of the tube by positioning the stopper and closing the gas tap. The volume of the tube can be read off the scale and printed against the corresponding pressure taken from the gauge. By varying the position of the stopper Boyle's Law can be investigated.
- This unit has the advantage over the standard model as it does not require oil to indicate the volume of air.
- The tube is made out of acrylic which is known to fail 'safely' if punctured.
- Designed as a smaller, more economical version of the Standard Boyle's Law Apparatus.
- Key Stage 3 Chemistry - The particulate nature of Matter: The properties of the different states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) in terms of the particle model, including gas pressure.
- Key Stage 4 - Physics - The Structure of Matter: Links between pressure and temperature of a gas at constant volume, related to the motion of its particles (qualitative). Explain why the work done in the compression or expansion of gases is the product of the pressure and the change in volume.
- No external pump is required for this apparatus.
