Particle model and pressure
This complete lesson PowerPoint presentation includes learning objectives, and a set of six classroom activities for students to complete. There are also learning checks, questions (and answers), videos and animations to develop KS3-4 students' understanding of particle model and pressure.
Includes a Word document with six further questions for students to complete in groups.
The slides cover particle movement, particle pressure, gas pressure, pressure and temperature relationship, pressure and volume, and Boyle's law. There are also Boyle's law equations and questions to complete to check learning.
Learning objectives from the lesson resource:
• To be able to describe the movement of particles in a gas and explain what the term gas pressure means.
• To be able to explain what happens to both speed and pressure in a gas when there is a temperature change.
• To be able to explain and calculate how pressure (or volume) changes affect the volume (or pressure) of a gas.
