Catalyst. In your journal, respond to the following question: Would it be a good idea to inflate my road bike tires to high pressures in Los Angeles during the summer? Why or why not? Think CHEMISTRY!. Pressure Stations!. Groups of 4 (we will number off)

Catalyst • In your journal, respond to the following question: Would it be a good idea to inflate my road bike tires to high pressures in Los Angeles during the summer? Why or why not? Think CHEMISTRY!
Pressure Stations! • Groups of 4 (we will number off) • Each station has an activity and 2-3 journal questions that you are responsible for. • Your exit ticket today is your individual journal responses. I will be checking these before you leave today.
Learning Target (Review) • LT 6.1 – I can explain how pressure is created through the collisions of molecules with a surface.
I. Pressure vs. Temperature • Thermal energy – energy that is related to temperature. • Pressure increases with increasing thermal energy.
II. Pressure vs. # of Molecules • Pressure increases with the # of gas molecules…why? • More molecules = more collisions
III. Pressure vs. Altitude • Pressure decreases with altitude (as we go higher up in the atmosphere)…why??? • Gravity • Temperature decreases
IV. Pressure vs. Depth • Pressure increases with depth (below the surface of the ocean)…why? • Weight of water creates pressure • Dolphin Kid, Son of Aquaman
Label It! • In your journal, please label your station activities as either: pressure vs. temperature, pressure vs. # of molecules, pressure vs. altitude, or pressure vs. depth. • This is your exit ticket for today and your journal will be graded!
Closing Time • Homework: HW6.1 set due Thursday/Friday. This will be graded! • Binder tabs, binder, and notebook are required.
