Materials -2 mini marshmallows -1 syringe -A compile Experimental Procedure 1. Take by marshmallow. 2. Draw face on marshmallow. 3. unresolved stopcock. 4. Pull plunger out. 5. Put marhmallow in syringe. 6. Put plunger back into syringe. 7. grind plunger so its further touching the marshmallow. 8.Pull plunger back and prove observations. 9. Remove marshmallow and replace it with the second marshmallow. 10. weedy stopcock and push plunger so its barely touching the marshmallow again. 11. Record observations.

ObservationsEvery time you push with the marshmallow in the tube, the air inside the marshmallow is released. The marshmallow decreases in size. finale Boyles law states that for a frosty amount a gas at a fixed temperature volume is setback to its pressure. The air in the marshmallow is what follows Boyles law. The marshmallow is kindred to a gas because when the pressure in the syringe is decreased the pressure in the marshmallow is increased. The volume increases in the marshmallow. So basically when the plunger is pulled out the pressure in the syringe decreases and the volume of the marshmallow increases.
