ALEKKA: What is combined gas law?

The combined gas law combines the three gas laws: Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law. It
states that the ratio of the product of pressure and volume and the absolute temperature of a gas is
equal to a constant. The combined gas law has practical applications when dealing with gases at
ordinary temperatures and pressures. Like other gas laws based on ideal behavior, it becomes less
accurate at high temperatures and pressures. The law is used in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.
For example, it can be used to calculate pressure, volume, or temperature for the gas in clouds to
forecast weather.

GEO: At the beginning of the experiment, before you lit the paper, the egg could not fit into the opening
of the bottle. The pressure of the air inside the bottle and outside are equal therefore the only force
acting upon this egg is gravity.

ELLAH: When we light the paper on fire, drop it into the bottle, and place the egg on top (pointy part
down) the air molecules that are inside the bottle begin to move faster and expand. But because the air
is trapped inside the bottle the volume of space that it can take up is limited. As the temperature and
pressure increase inside the bottle, some of the air molecules are used up in the combustion process.
This results in carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water vapor.

MERIELLE: Once the pressure inside the bottle is strong enough, it will cause the egg to dance back and
forth and allow some of the air to escape. Both of these processes reduce the amount of air inside the
bottle. But because the air is extremely hot the volume still fills up the bottle and the high pressure
remains.

CLAIRE: Once the majority of the air molecules have either escaped the bottle or used in combustion the
flame of the paper will go out. Once this occurs, the air inside the bottle will begin to cool and contract.
Reducing in volume and pressure but because we have fewer air molecules inside the bottle than when
we started the pressure inside the bottle drops much lower than at the start of this experiment.

JESU: Because the pressure inside the bottle is higher than it is within, the force the outside pressure
exerts on our egg is strong enough to gently push the egg into the bottle. Once the egg is inside the
bottle, the seal preventing air to get inside is removed and air rushes in and balances the air inside and
out.
