Ideal Gas Law
Exploring the ideal gas Law with the @pascoscientific Ideal Gas experiment with the chemistry sensor connected to a wireless module so we can measure both the temperature and the pressure. The temperature change can be recorded as the pressure is changed by moving the syringe.

Archimedes Bucket and Cylinder
I measure the weight of a mass using a spring balance, then submerge it in water. The buoyant force reduces the weight, but adding the same mass of water to the bucket restores it. A simple and clever demonstration of how the displaced water equals the mass added!
