Gas Laws introduction (Boyle's and Charle's Law)
The activity contains a simulation of Boyles law and Charles law.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/gas-laws-introduction-boyles-and-charles-law
Something's Fishy
In this activity, students examine the size, mass, and growth rates for three species of fish. They interpolate and extrapolate from best-fit models. Students compare the growth rates of endothermic and exothermic animals.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/somethings-fishy
Vernier - Dissolved Oxygen
Students use the Dissolved Oxygen Probe to measure the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water from streams and rivers. They correlate the availability of dissolved oxygen to temperature, pressure, and salinity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--dissolved-oxygen
Temperature Conversions
Students will review the different temperature scales and use the List Editor to convert from one temperature scale to another.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/temperature-conversions
Vernier - Determine Concentration of a Solution: Beer's Law
Students will use a Vernier Colorimeter to determine the relationship between concentration and absorbance of nickel sulfate solution (Beer's law). They will then determine the concentration of a unknown sample using the standard curve.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--determine-concentration-of-a-solution-beers-law
