If you press the plunger on a syringe with gas in it what can you see inside the syringe?
When you press the plunger on a syringe containing gas, you may not see any visible changes in the gas itself since gases are generally not visible. However, you may notice the gas compressing, which could manifest as a decrease in volume or pressure inside the syringe. If the syringe is transparent, you might see the movement of the plunger and feel resistance as the gas molecules are forced closer together. If the gas is at a high pressure, you might also hear a sound as it escapes through any openings or valves.

Why must the plunger of a gas syringe be rotatated?
To ensure that the plunger can move and not stuck. Because if it is stuck, when the gas goes into the syringe, the plunger will not move back and so the values you received will be lower than the actual value
If a capped syringe is heated in which direction will the syringe plunger move?
The fluid or gas inside the syringe will decrease in temperature, therefore it will decrease in volume. This will cause the syringe piston to slide inside the syringe. This is because of the ideal gas law: PV=nRT. If the pressure (P), the number of moles (n), and the ideal gas constant (R) remains constant, than the change in volume must be proportional to the change in temperature.
If a sealed syringe is plunged into cold water in which direction will the syringe piston slide?
Think about what happens to the gas (air) inside the syringe when the temperature decreases. As the gas cools it will occupy a smaller volume and thus the syringe plunger will move DOWN the barrel.
What is a gas syringe and how is it used?
A gas syringe is basically a device that fills up with a gas that is produced and gives a volume for that gas. Gas from a reaction is forced into the syringe due to pressure and the syringe plunger is forced out (just like how you suck up a liquid with a normal syringe). It can be used to detect the volume of gas produced in a chemical reaction for instance.See the Web Links to the left for more information.
What is the function of the syringe in respirometer?
The syringe in a respirometer is used to adjust the volume of gas in the respirometer chamber. By pushing or pulling the plunger of the syringe, you can change the pressure inside the chamber, allowing you to measure the rate of gas exchange, such as oxygen consumption or carbon dioxide production, by the organism being studied.
How does Boyle's law relate to real life?
Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature is held constant. This principle is evident in everyday situations, such as when a syringe is used: pulling the plunger back increases the volume inside the syringe, causing the pressure to drop and drawing fluid in. Additionally, it explains why a sealed bag of chips expands when taken to a lower altitude, as the external pressure decreases and the gas inside expands.
What causes a syring to go up during the reaction between citric acid and soduim bicarbonate?
The reaction between citric acid and sodium bicarbonate produces carbon dioxide gas. The formation of gas bubbles causes pressure to build up inside the syringe, pushing the plunger upward. This upward movement is a result of the gas expanding and creating a force against the plunger.

Is it to push and pull the gas into the syringe or something else?
What happens when a syringe contains gas and is plunged into water?
All gasses and vapors are compressible, whereas liquids and solids are not compressible to any useful extent. The compressibility of gasses is due to the much greater spacing of its molecules than would exist in its liquid or solid state; in fact, if you compress a gas far enough, it will eventually become a liquid, and then a solid. The compressibility of gasses is a very useful property that allows us to run machinery and to make aerosol sprays.

What is the affect on the pressure inside a cylinder when a plunger is pushed in?
Pushing the plunger into a cylinder decreases the volume of the cylinder, which increases the pressure inside. This is due to the gas molecules being confined to a smaller space, resulting in more frequent collisions with the cylinder walls, hence higher pressure.
