Introduction

In the science world, we use heating and cooling curves to model such physical changes. A
heating or cooling curve is a simple line graph that shows the phase changes a given
substance undergoes with increasing or decreasing temperature.

I. Materials Needed.
• Erlenmeyer flask
• Match sticks
• 1 boiled egg
• Rubber balloons
• Bunsen Burner
• Iron stand
• Gauze mat
• Thread
• Ruler/ Tape measure
• Paper/ Tissue
• Safety Eye goggles
Procedure
A. Balloon in a flask
1. Prepare your heating set-up
2. Fill an Erlenmeyer flask with 25mL water
3. Cover its mouth with a rubber balloon. You can seal the mouth of the flask first with a
masking tape. Make sure that the balloon does not touch the surface of the flask to
avoid burning it. You may hold the balloon’s tip.
4. Ignite the burner with flame and wait for the water to heat up until it boils.
5. Using a thread, measure the circumference of the balloon the given conditions (See
tables)
6. Record your observations during the process.
7. After reading the final diameter, turn off your burner and let the flask rest. Measure the
circumference of the balloon every 15 seconds until the balloon totally deflates.
8.
Condition Circumference of the balloon

1. Start of Heating 5 cm

2. Bubbles forming at the bottom of 20cm


the flask

3. Bubbles already rising to the 25 cm


surface of the water

4. 1 minute after start of boiling

5. Start of cooling (turning off the 30 cm


burner)

6. First 15 seconds after turning off 26 cm


the burner

7. Next 15 seconds after turning off 21 cm


the burner

8. When the balloon totally deflates 11 cm


B. Egg in a Bottle

1. Peel your boiled egg completely. Test your boiled egg if it can sit on top of the
Erlenmeyer flask.
2. Light a tissue paper and place it inside the flask.
3. Immediately place your beaker on top of the flask
4. Record your observation.

Condition Action of the Boiled egg

1. Before putting lighted paper/splint in The egg placed over the bottle will be pulled
the flask. inside because of the change in pressure
inside the bottle.

2. After putting lighted paper/splint I the When the egg is placed on top of the bottle,
flask it seals the bottle, and the fire eventually
goes out. When the fire goes out, the air
inside the bottle cools.

Post Lab Questions

1. The experiment concerning the balloon and boiling water is an example of Charles’
Law.
Discuss their connection.
Answer: this relationship between the temperature and volume of a gas, which became
known as Charles' law, provides an explanation of how hot-air balloons work. If a gas expands
when heated, then a given weight of hot air occupies a larger volume than the same weight of
cold air. Hot air is therefore less dense than cold air. Once the air in a balloon gets hot enough,
the net weight of the balloon plus this hot air is less than the weight of an equivalent volume
of cold air, and the balloon starts to rise. When the gas in the balloon is allowed to cool, the
balloon returns to the ground.
2. The experiment concerning the boiled egg in the flask is an example of Gay-Lussac’s
Law. Discuss their connection.
Answer: The experiment concerning the boiled flask is an example of Gay lussac’s law
Another example of Gay-Lussac's law can be observed in pressure cookers. When the cooker
is heated, the pressure exerted by the steam inside the container increases. The high
temperature and pressure inside the container cause the food to cook faster. Gay-Lussac’s
Law helps explain the egg-in-a-bottle trick, where boiled water displaces the air inside a bottle,
and as the water condenses, an egg placed over the bottle will be pulled inside because of
the change in pressure inside the bottle.

3. What is the relevance of the different gas laws specifically charles’ law and Gay
lussac’s law to our daily living. How does your knowledge of the gas laws become
helpful to us.

Answer: Gas laws are laws that describe the relationship between temperature, pressure,
and volume of gases. Since gas is all around us, we must know how they move, react to a
certain thing, and etc. because it’s of the reason why we are alive today. Because of gas law
humans can experiment many things using gas. gases are part of our life.
