Getting to Know Gases
Objective:
Prove that gases have the following properties: mass, volume,
temperature, and pressure.
Materials:
For Activity A: For Activity B:
3 rubber balloons of the same kind pipette and aspirator or syringe
digital balance 100-mL graduated cylinder
balloon pump (optional) 200 mL water
20 mL cooking oil

alcohol lamp alcohol lamp
tripod tripod
wire gauze wire gauze
match match
denatured alcohol denatured alcohol
ice
500-mL beaker or any tin can
Procedure:
A. Gases and Its Mass
1. Measure the mass of the deflated balloon using a digital balance with a
0.01 precision (sensitive up to two decimal places).
2. Inflate the balloon using a balloon pump and seal the opening by securely
twisting/looping the end.
