Six lessons cover this chapter, one for each section. Open any of them on its own below, or meet it in place inside chapter 9 of the book. Tick a lesson off once you can predict what it will do before you touch it.

1

Gas pressure and how we measure it

Read a manometer and convert atm, torr, mmHg and kPa.

2

The simple gas laws

Hold two variables and see Boyle, Charles and Avogadro appear.

3

The ideal gas law

Solve PV = nRT for any missing variable.

4

Gas density, molar mass and stoichiometry

Run a reaction that makes a gas and find its volume.

5

Dalton's law of partial pressures

Mix gases in a flask and split the total pressure.

6

Kinetic molecular theory, effusion and real gases

Change temperature and mass and watch the speed distribution shift.
