Saltire Scientific Gas Pressure Sensor

Pressure Sensor

Measure absolute pressure with this versatile sensor. This probe is especially useful in chemistry and physics labs.
Price: $75.00



Possible Activities:
  • Use the included syringe to investigate how the pressure of a gas changes when its volume is increased or decreased. (Boyle's Law)
  • Use the probe in conjunction with a Casio temperature probe to examine how the pressure of a gas increases when its temperature is increased or decreased. (Gay-Lussac's Law)
  • Use the included stopper and extension tubing to monitor the pressure increase as carbon dioxide is produced when baking soda and vinegar are mixed in a closed container.
