Gases : GasGramMixPressure (5 Variations)
4.80 g of CH4 is mixed with 17.6 g of CO2 in a 9.00 L flask at a temperature of 67.2oC. What is the total pressure of the flask? (Assume there is no reaction.)
"Concept Learning versus Problem Solving": Does Particle Motion Have an Effect?Michael J. Sanger, Eddie Campbell, Jeremy Felker, and Charles Spencer 210 students were asked to answer a static, particulate-level, multiple-choice question concerning gas properties. Then they viewed an animated version of the question and answered the multiple-choice question again. The distribution of responses changed significantly after students viewed the animation. Sanger, Michael J.; Campbell, Eddie; Felker, Jeremy; Spencer, Charles. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 875.

What Are Students Thinking When They Pick Their Answer?Michael J. Sanger and Amy J. Phelps 330 students were asked to answer a multiple-choice question concerning gas properties at the microscopic level and explain their reasoning. Of those who selected the correct answer, 80% provided explanations consistent with the scientifically accepted answer, while 90% of the students who picked an incorrect choice provided explanations with at least one misconception.

On the Buoyancy of a Helium-Filled BalloonJohn E. Harriman It is shown by expansion of the exponential in the barometric formula that the forces due to pressure acting on a balloon are of the form (PV/RT)Mg and that results agree with those suggested by Archimedes principle. Einstein's equivalence principal provides an answer to what balloons will do in an accelerated car. Harriman, John E. J. Chem. Educ.2005, 82, 246.
