HS-PS1-9
Analyze data to support the claim that the combined gas law describes the relationships among volume, pressure, and temperature for a sample of an ideal gas.
Clarification statement: Real gases may be included at conditions near STP. The relationships of the variables in the combined gas law may be described both qualitatively and quantitatively.
Assessment boundary: Assessment is limited to the relationships among the variables of the combined gas law, not the gas law names, i.e. Boyle’s Law.
Note: this is a NYSED-specific performance expectation that is different from the Next Generation Science Standards.
