Experiment II:
Varying the Number of Moles of Gas (n)
Experiment Procedure:
1. Prepare three different temperature water baths: A hot-water
bath, room temperature bath, and a cold-water bath. Keep
the hot-water bath as hot as possible, using a steam generator
or hot plate, if available. Use ice for the cold water bath, if
available. The room temperature bath needs to be
somewhere in the temperature range between the other two
baths.
2. Connect the stereo plug from the Absolute Zero Apparatus to
the Temperature Sensor, but leave the hose fitting
disconnected.
3. Set up your experiment in DataStudio. (For setup
instructions, see Appendix B.)
