Answer the reflection questions using what you have learned from the lesson and your experimental data. It will be helpful to refer to your chemistry journal notes.
Answer questions in complete sentences.
1. Why was the line of best fit method used to determine the experimental value of absolute zero?
2. Which gas law is this experiment investigating? How does your graph represent the gas law under investigation?
3. Using your knowledge of the kinetic molecular theory of gases, describe the relationship between volume and temperature of an ideal gas. Explain how this is reflected in your lab data.
4. Pressure and number of moles remained constant during this experiment. If you wanted to test one of these variables in a future experiment, how would you use your knowledge of gas laws to set up the investigation?
