Squashing The Bottle-Ideal Gas Law

This document describes an experiment to demonstrate the relationship between volume, temperature, pressure and moles. The experiment involves filling a plastic bottle one-third with hot water then capping it, causing the bottle to collapse inward. It also involves putting crushed ice in a bottle, capping it, and shaking until the inside chills and the bottle collapses outward. The questions aim to explain how temperature changes cause the bottles to collapse due to changes in pressure from increasing or decreasing volume of trapped air.
