Thermodynamic Gas Law!

Experimentation is a critical part of Science - and can be a lot of fun!
Mr. Hurst’s Seventh Grade Science class had a number of special guest mentors in the lab this morning when they hosted Mount Saint Joseph High School AP Chemistry students and their Chemistry teacher, Mr.Jason Ader.
Today's experimentation focused on the principles of the Thermodynamic Gas Law. Students used Alka Seltzer tablets as a gas generator to propel small canisters, observing how temperature affects pressure over time. For an hour or so there were little rockets flying all over the St. Louis Science Lab!
We would like to thank Mount Saint Joseph High School for providing a wonderful educational and a memorable experience for our students. A special thank you to our SLS alums, Nick and Drew for coming back and serving as outstanding role models. #stematsls Archdiocese of Baltimore Catholic Schools
