LAB: DETERMINING THE VALUE OF THE UNIVERSAL GAS CONSTANT, R.
The objectives of this lab are to measure the volume, pressure and temperature of a sample of wet butane gas, C4H10 grams. Another objective is the determine the pressure of the dry butane gas by correcting for the partial pressure of water, also to calculate the experimental value of the universal gas constant, R, and compare it to the accepted value. .
Materials:.
Centigram balance.
Thermometer.
Pneumatic trough.
Barometer.
100mL graduated cylinder.
Reagent: Butane, C4H10 (in lighter).
Procedure: .
1. Put on safety glasses and keep on until you complete the lab.
2. Fill the pneumatic through with tap water. Record the water temperature.
3. Fill a 100 mL graduated cylinder to the top with tap water.
4. Be sure that there are NO air bubbles in your cylinder.
5. Obtain butane lighter from your instructor v/s NO NOT LIGHT AT ANY TIME DURING THE LAB.
6. Mass the lighter to the nearest 0.01 gram, Record you data.
7. As one partner holds the graduated cylinder (inverted), the other lab partner should hold the butane lighter under the water just below the opening of the graduated cylinder is equal the level outside when finished.
8. Open the trigger of the lighter and displace between 50 and 65 mL of water from the graduated cylinder. Be sure that the level of the water inside the graduated cylinder is equal the level outside when finished.
9. Record the volume of gas v/s Remember you are reading the graduated cylinder upside down!.
10. Remove the lighter from the water and dry it completely.
11. When completely dry, mass the lighter to the nearest 0.01 gram, Record your data.
12. Record the barometric pressure of the room in your data.

Implementations of things like libraries, computer labs, or scientific labs increase test scores in reading and mathematics (Severin, Eugenio). ... The only question is, which piece of infrastructure is best to implement: computer labs, libraries, or scientific labs? Methodology The three different pieces of infrastructure that we decided to examine were: computer labs, libraries, and scientific labs. ... There were three research reports that were examined to collect useful information. ... The report when on to describe how laptops resulted in higher test scores (Duarte et Al). ...
Lab Report for Chemical Reactions Experiment Objective: In this experiment students will attempt a number of different reactions. The students will confirm that a reaction did/did not occur by detailed observation, and predict the products of each reaction by performing basic tests. Hypoth...

Teaching as My Career For the last twelve years or so, I have been going to school. Every single day I find myself behind a desk doing schoolwork. Day in and day out it is the same thing, come to school, do some work, leave school to go home, and when I get home, I do even more work. But this...
Our objective for this lab was to study the rate of movement of stentor in contrast with different water temperatures. ... Materials and Methods To begin the lab we obtained a gridded depression slide and applied Vaseline outlining the grid. ... These graphs show the lab on a much larger scale in contrast with the group graphs. It is another view on testing this lab to get the most plausible outcome. ... Next time we perform this lab we would try to keep the water at a constant temperature and measure the movements a little more precise....
