First Gas Lab! Airbag!
Gas Laws Quiz!
I am really scared to see how I have done on this quiz. The math I felt was easy, but I got completely mixed up by the concepts on it! I definitely need to go over this quiz with someone who knows more than I do. I just hope that it doesn't completely destroy my grade! I also want to make sure that I don't completely let the encroaching difficulty of this unit snowball my grade into oblivion. Another thing I am worried about getting tripped up on is converting units!
Gas Laws Combined Gas Theory.
This is the most interesting formula we have had since the original of PV/nT. (or as I say pressure and volume on a new table. Its kinda strange, I know, but its still helpful.) This lesson involved the use of PV/T = PV/T. This has the potential to get super complicated which is something I am always worried about. I am also scared about what we have coming at us in the future since we are only about halfway through this unit.

Boat Competition!
After we made our bio-diesel, the next part of the unit had us make boats to race! The boats were made out of all sorts of things, like cardboard and plastic. We made ours out of a butter/lard container. The sides of the boat were high and it was pretty light. Our team did have some trouble at first trying to get it to work, but eventually we managed to fix all the issues just in time for the race! We came in second place!
