Program Description
Nitrogen gas is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere. When it is compressed and cooled, it turns to a liquid, which boils at 250 degrees below zero. The student will observe changes between the solid, liquid, and gas states of matter as we use items such as racquet balls, balloons, metals, and super conductors.
Program Format
1. Explain three states of matter; solid, liquid, and gas2. Turning a gas into a liquid3. Hypothesize the effects of bouncing a racquetball in normal and frozen state4. Change a gas to a liquid and back to a gas5. Super cooling with a ball and hoop6. Create a nail from surgical tubing
Objectives
To acquaint the viewers with three states of matter and their molecular structure.To demonstrate how an object's molecular structure can make it elasticTo acquaint the viewer with the process of turning a gas into a liquid.To demonstrate the molecular structure of object (racquetball) changes when frozen.To demonstrate the states of matter in change, volume, frost, and cryogenic applications.To demonstrate the use of liquid nitrogen in electrical applications by super cooling semi conductors.To demonstrate the effects of super cooling.
