Amountofgas
Volume
The space occupied by a gas, expressed in milliliters (mL), cubiccentimeters (cm3), cubicmeter (m3), and liter (L)
Pressure
The force exerted by the gas per unit area, measured in Pascal (Pa)
Temperature
Depends on the kinetic energy of a gas, expressed in Fahrenheit (°F), Celsius (°C), and Kelvin (K)
Amount of gas
Related to the number of moles, calculated as the ratio of the mass of the gas and its molarmass (n=m/M)
JacquesAlexandreCharles, a French physicist, performed an experiment using a balloon, hotwater, and coldwater
Under normal atmospheric condition, there are only 11 elements that are gases. These includes diatomicmolecules and noblegases
Scientists have observed some activities involving gases and found that the behavior of gases is determined by the behavior of its individual particle
KineticMolecularTheory (KMT)
A simple model of an ideal gas or a theoretical gas, where the particles behave consistently and in a predictable manner
Characteristics of gases according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory
Gases consist of very tiny particles, each of which has mass
Gas particles move rapidly in straight lines, travel constantly, and in random directions
Gases diffuse rapidly that allows two or more gases to mix readily when combined
The forces of attraction (VanderWaalsForce) between the particles of gases are negligible because of the wide spaces between them
Gas particles collide with each other or with the walls of its container but do not lose their kinetic energy; instead, it is only transferred to the lower energy particle and will continue to move. energy is conserved in an elasticcollision of gas particles
All gases have the same average kineticenergy at a given temperature of gas. The average kinetic energy of gas particles is directlyproportional to the absolute temperature of the gas
The Kinetic Molecular Theory of gases provides a model to explain behavioral properties of gases
Gas laws are products of various experiments that were done by scientists many years ago
Boyle's Law
Relationship between volume and pressure at constant temperature
Measurable properties of gases in Boyle's Law
Volume
Pressure
Volume
Denoted by the symbol V, with SI unit in Liter (L), can also be expressed in milliliters (mL), cubic meters (m3), and cubic centimeter (cm3)
Pressure
Denoted by the symbol P, the force exerted by the gas per unit area, depends on the kinetic energy of the molecules
Pressure is directlyproportional to temperature
Gases expand when temperature is increased
Boyle's Law
When the pressure changes on a certain amount of gas, its size is inversely proportional to the pressure, provided that the temperature is constant
Charles's Law
The Kelvin temperature and the volume of a gas are directlyrelated when there is no change in pressure
Among the units of temperature, we always express it in Kelvin (K)
Absolute zero
The lowest attainable temperature, with a value of -273.15 °C
Converting Celsius to Kelvin
K = °C + 273.15
Charles's law
At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature
If the absolute temperature of a gas is doubled
The volume will be double
LordKelvin, a Scottish physicist who has identified the lowest attainable temperature known as absolute zero with a value of -273.15 celsius.
Living organisms produces inorganic molecules known as Biomolecules
Monomers - are atoms that bond together in order to form more complex structures.
sugars (monosaccharides) which is the most common natural monomer, it links to form polymer carbohydrates
amino acids - are the monomers that build a polymer called protein
fattyacids- also known as lipids or fats have two different building blocks fattyacid and glycerol.
nucleotides – are monomers that join together to form nucleic acid which contains genetic information the structural units of RNA and DNA, as well as providing an energy source in metabolism.

Carbohydrates are the major source of energy in our body. All carbohydrates contain carbonhydrogen and oxygen.
3 Main Groups of Carbohydrates
Monosaccharides
Disaccharides
Polysaccharides
Monosaccharide is white solid at room temperature and very soluble in water
Glucose is found in the free state in the plant and animal tissue
Triose is a monosaccharide with three carbon atoms
Pentose and ribose are five carbon atoms
Hexoses are made up of six atoms and are the most common monosaccharides.
