The goal of this experiment is to demonstrate the concepts behind Boyle's Law, and Guy-Lussac's Law, via a pair of experiments. In the first, one demonstrates the concept of volume and pressure being inversely proportional, by using a modified syringe, and adjusting without letting any air in or out.

In the second, one can demonstrate the concept of pressure and temperature being proportional, by measuring the increase in pressure of a sealed container, while it is being heated. In this way, both properties are demonstrated in a manner in keeping with the laws that the experiments showcase.
