We are having a great time in chemistry studying gas laws and the phases of matter!
Our chemists completed an experiment where we reacted hydrochloric acid and magnesium metal and trapped the hydrogen gas in a glass eudiometer tube. Students had to balance the equation and perfome the stoichiometry (ask your chemist what that word means!) calculations for the reaction. We also discussed what would happen to the gas if we had collected it at different temperatures and pressures.
Great job, chemists!
