Limaçons: A Polar Investigation
This activity allows students to investigate the properties of limaçons in the polar forms of both r =a +b*sin(θ) and r =a+b*cos(θ). Using a slider, values of a and b change as students investigate looped or flattened limaçons, as well as, cardioids. Students examine symmetry and the effect...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limaçons-a-polar-investigation
Keep It Bottled Up: Linear Rates of Pressure Increase
In this activity, you will see how temperature affects the rate at which an effervescent antacid tablet reacts with water and releases a gas. The rate at which the reaction occurs is measured by the rate of gas production.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/keep-it-bottled-up-linear-rates-of-pressure-increase
Vernier - Vapor Pressure of Liquids
Students investigate the relationship between the vapor pressure of liquid and its temperature. They use a Pressure Sensor and a Temperature Probe to collect pressure and temperature data. Students compare the vapor pressure of two liquids.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--vapor-pressure-of-liquids
Vernier - Boyle's law
The primary objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a confined gas. The gas we use will be air, and it will be confined in a syringe connected to a Pressure Sensor (see Figure 1). When the volume of the syringe is changed by moving the pist...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--boyles-law
Can You Take The Pressure?
Students will use the Vernier EasyLink© and the Gas Pressure Sensor to determine the volume of a gas in a container under different pressures. They will also graph the pressure/volume data and interpret their graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-you-take-the-pressure
Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes
In this lesson, students will use a conductivity probe to measure conductivity and determine which molecules are responsible for conductivity of solutions.
