Question 4.2

What is the mathematical equation you found?

Note: Remember that you can omit the last part of the equation (b, in y = mx + b).

Questions

Please answer the questions below.

Question 5.1

According to your mathematical model, what would be the pressure if your gas temperature was about 200 degrees?

Question 5.2

Given that you cannot set the temperature directly in this model, how can we test the validity of your prediction? Briefly describe your strategy. (min. 2 sentences).

Question 5.3

If you observe a pressure of 170, what should be gas temperature?

Question 5.4

Were you able to validate your mathematical model? Explain why and how. (min. 2 sentences).

Question 5.5

Optional question if you finished the activities early: Would your answer to the "balloon-in-liquid-nitrogen" experiment change after this lesson? If no, explain why. If yes, explain how. (min. 2 sentences)

Question 5.6

Optional question if you finished the activities early: Would you change your sketch, too? If yes, go ahead and draw a new one
