VI - The Ideal Gas Law Preview CT-STEM

Let's talk about our ideal gas theories

Please set your computer aside briefly (do not close this page) and join the classroom discussion that your teacher is going to moderate.

Note: If your teacher did not initiate the discussion yet, you can start answering the first four questions below as you are waiting.

Referenced Questions

These questions were answered in the previous steps. They are provided here for your reference.

Question 2.1

Can we put together our three findings in one coherent theory? Let's go ahead and give it a try!

First, write your combined theory verbally. Try to do it with just 1 coherent sentence.

Note: If you are having difficulty, you can write more than one sentence. It is perfectly fine.

Question 2.2

How about one mathematical equation that combines our three equations? Let's give it a try!

Alternative: If you are having difficulty in combining the equations, do not worry much. Either write the best equation you could come up with or write why you find this task particularly difficult.

Questions

Please answer the questions below.

Question 3.1

If the discussion has not started yet, start answering the following question: Why even bother developing an ideal gas theory? In which situations such a mathematical theory might help us? (min 2. examples)

Question 3.2

Before moving on, please reflect on the classroom discussion briefly: (1) How did your verbal and mathematical ideal gas theory compared to the other groups' theories? (2) What were the similarities? (3) What were the differences? (min 2. sentences)
