Gas Laws

Cards (26)

  • Kinetic Molecular Theory
    it says here that the gas molecules continuously travel in straight lines and only change their direction during collisions with the container wall and other molecules.
  • Pressure
    it is defined as the FORCE the gas exerts on a given area of the container.
  • Volume
    it is the THREE-DIMENSIONAL SPACE inside the container holding the gas.
  • What is the SI unit for volume?
    cubic meter ()
  • What is the more common and convenient unit for volume?
    liter (L)
  • What is the standard unit for pressure?
    • Atmosphere (atm)
    • Millimeters of Mercury (mm Hg)
    • Pounds per square unit (psi)
  • Temperature
    it measures the HEAT, or HOW FAST the particles are moving.
  • What is the absolute temperature when working with GASES?
    Kelvin
  • What is the standard temperature?
    0⁰C 273k
  • Celsius to Kelvin
    K= ⁰C + 273.15
  • Kelvin to Celsius
    ⁰C = K - 273.15
  • Amount (Moles)

    it is the amount of substances
  • What is the SI unit for Amount of Substance?
    Mole (mol)
  • One mole of a substance contains approximately 6.022 × 10²³ particles of the substance.
  • What are the properties of gases?
    1. Pressure
    2. Temperature
    3. Volume
    4. Amount (moles)
  • Boyle's Law
    it describes the relationship between PRESSURE and VOLUME OF GASES.
  • The Boyle's Law is named for?
    Robert Boyle
  • The SAME AMOUNT of gas at a CONSTANT temperature, results in an inverse relationship.
  • What is the formula for Boyle's Law?
    P1V1 = P2V2
  • Boyle's Law Statement
    “The volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure given that it's temperature is constant.”
  • Charles Law
    it is the relationship between VOLUME and TEMPERATURE at a constant PRESSURE.
  • The Charles Law is named for?

    Jacques Charles
  • Charles Law
    In his experiment, he trapped a sample of gas in a cylinder with a movable piston in water bath at different temperatures.
    What Law is this?
  • What is the formula for Charles Law?
    V1/T1 = V2/T2
  • What is the formula for Charles Law in cross-multiplied form?
    V1T2 = V2T1
  • Charles Law
    it says here that as the TEMPERATURE Increases, the VOLUME also increases because faster molecules collide harder and push each other farther apart. This results to Direct Relationship.
