Laws of gases

Cards (62)

  • Dalton's Law

    The total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of the gases present
  • Pressure = force/area
  • Density = mass/volume
  • Density = mass/volume
  • At constant temperature, if the pressure increases, then the volume decreases.
  • Boyle’s law states that, “at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas varies inversely as its absolute pressure.”
  • If the pressure decreases, then the volume increases.
  • Avogadro’s law states that equal volumes of all gases, under similar conditions of temperature and pressure, contain an equal number of molecules.
  • Charles’ Law states that as the temperature of a gas increases, its volume also increases, provided that the pressure stays constant.
  • Charles’ Law states that as the temperature of a gas increases, so does its volume (and vice versa)
  • Boyle’s Law states that when the volume of a gas decreases, its pressure increases (and vice versa).
  • Boyle’s Law states that when the volume of a fixed amount of gas decreases, its pressure increases proportionally if the temperature remains constant.
  • Avogadro’s law states that at constant temperature and pressure, equal volumes of all gases contain an equal number of molecules.
  • If the volume increases, then the density decreases.
  • If the volume increases, then the pressure decreases.
  • If the pressure increases, then the density increases.
  • Gay-Lussac's Law states that when the volume of a fixed amount of gas remains constant, the pressure exerted by it will be directly proportional to the thermodynamic temperature.
  • The equation for Charles' Law is V1/T1 = V2/T2
  • V stands for volume (in cubic metres)
  • P stands for pressure (in pascals)
  • The ideal gas equation is PV=nRT
  • Gay-Lussac’s law states that, “when a gas is heated at constant volume, the pressure will increase proportionally with the rise in temperature”
  • The volume of a gas is not definite
  • the shape of a gas is not definite
  • the arrangement of gas is scattered
  • the movement of gas is fast
  • the attraction of atoms of gas is weak
  • gases are made by tiny molecules
  • the attraction between thenmolecules is negligable
  • gases exhibit diffusibly
  • gases have low density
  • gases exhibit compressibility and expansibility
  • gas has no definite shape and volume
  • Diffusion - gases has the ability to spread
  • Air Pressure- the force exerted by the mixture of gases
  • LPA- Bad weather
  • HPA- Good Weather
  • Barometer- measures air pressures
  • Jan Evangelista Torricelli- discovered the barometer
  • Gay Lussac's law- Pressure is directly proportional to absolute temperature at constant volume.
