This Lab has three parts:
(1) The Ideal Gas Law:You will analyze data from Boyle's Law and Charles' Law to obtain the fundamental constants R and absolute zero in degrees centigrade.
(2) The Kinetic Theory: You will explore the Gaussian distribution function for molecular velocity distributions in one dimension and then the Maxwell-Boltzman speed distribution.
(3) The Van der Waals Equation of State:You will study how the Van der Waals equation differs from the ideal gas law.
