Studying Chemical Reactions by Monitoring
Pressure
Many chemical reactions produce gases that can cause
an increase in pressure in a sealed container. The
pressure change can be used to monitor the rate of the
reaction.
Other
PASCO scientific also produces an Absolute Pressure
Sensor (Model CI-6532A), a Differential Pressure
Sensor (Model CI-6533) and a Barometer (Model CI-
6531A). The Absolute Pressure Sensor has a range
from 0 to 700 kiloPascals. The Differential Pressure
Sensor is similar to the CI-6532A, except that both
ports of the transducer are open to the atmosphere. It
is designed for experiments where pressure differs
from one part of the apparatus to another, such as in a
Venturi tube or for a demonstration of Bernoulli’s
principle. The Barometer has a range from 800 to
1100 milliBar (24 to 32 inches of mercury). It is
designed to be a reliable, accurate pressure sensor
for weather studies. It is temperature compensated
and has a voltage regulator, so changes in
temperature or changes in the computer’s power
supply will not interfere with the data.

result of a manufacturing defect or improper use by
the customer shall be made solely by PASCO
scientific. Responsibility for the return of equipment
for warranty repair belongs to the customer.
Equipment must be properly packed to prevent
damage and shipped postage or freight prepaid.
(Damage caused by improper packing of the
equipment for return shipment will not be covered by
the warranty.) Shipping costs for returning the
equipment after repair will be paid by PASCO
scientific.
