The second gas law we covered in chemistry was Charles' gas law. Charles' gas law is when the volume of the container and the temperature of the gas is varied while the pressure is kept constant. The basic formula for this law is V1/T1=V2/T2, one important thing to remember is to change the temperature from degrees Celsius to kelvin. The conversion is done by adding 273.15 k to the degrees in Celsius. As the volume of the container gets larger the temperature gets greater as well, this is a direct correlation between volume and temperature.
So in our last unit of the school year we are learning about gas laws. The first gas law that we talked about in this unit is Boyle's law. In this gas law the temperature is kept at a constant. Therefore the pressure of a gas varys as well as the pressure. The rule of thumb is that as the pressure of the gas goes up the volume of the container goes down. The reason why this happens is the gas particles have less room to move therefore hitting the side of the container more often which increases the pressure. The standard formula for Boyle's law is P1(v1)=P2(v2).
In this unit there are a few formulas that are used to decipher the energy transfer in certain systems. One formula that is frequently used in this unit is Q= MCAT, this formula is used to be manipulated o find out specific information regarding energy. Q stands for heat or energy in Joules, M is mass in grams, C is heat in Celsius, and AT is the change in temperature. This formula can be practically manipulated for any question in this unit. Here is a link to a practice problem..............Q= MCAT Practice. There is also another formula that can be used to used to different substances and or objects releasing energy, in which they are set equal to each other. This formula is -MCAT = +MCAT the positive and the negative is for deciphering who is gaining and who is losing energy. These formulas can be manipulated like the basic MCAT to find certain variables.
Below are two examples of both a heating and cooling curve. As you can see, there are specific names for each phase change as a substance hits a certain temperature. You simply match up the amount of heat added with the temperature, and you are able to see the phase.
Honestly my video is pretty bad :/ It was extremely difficult and hard to do in such a short amount of time, but it is finished.

We are starting the quarter with a project. The purpose of the project is to try to persuade the consumer that we should start using the renewable fuel of biodiesel to better our future atmosphere and air quality. In order to provide the best material possible I will provide kinks down below to take a look at.
