    • Heat
      A form of energy
    • Solid particles
      • Fixed, but still vibrate
    • Liquid particles
      • Not fixed, can flow
    • Gas particles
      • Widely spread, moving
    • tempurature
      Measure of the mean kinetic energy of particles
    • Specific heat capacity
      Energy required or given out when the temperature of a substance changes by 1°C
    • Calculating heat energy transferred
      1. Eh= cm ΔT
    • Specific latent heat
      Energy involved in changing the state of a substance without temperature change
    • Pressure
      Force per unit area acting on a surface
    • Kinetic theory of gases
      • Assumes a large number of rapidly moving, randomly colliding molecules with no loss of kinetic energy
    • As volume of gas increases
      Pressure decreases
    • As temperature of a gas increases
      Pressure increases
    • Volume Temperature (constant mass and pressure)
      1. If the temperature of the gas is increased
      2. The kinetic energy of the particles increases + speed increases
      3. The volume of the gas must increase to increase the area the container walls to keep the pressure constant
    • Kelvin temperature scale
      • -273°C is called absolute zero and is the zero on the Kelvin temperature scale
    • At absolute zero, OK = -273°C, all particle motion stops
    • Convert °C to K
      Add 273
    • Convert K to °C
      Subtract 273
    • Boyle's law
      For a fixed mass of gas at a constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to 1/volume
    • Pressure
      Inversely proportional to volume
    • The equation is P1V1 = P2V2
    • Graph of pressure against volume
      • Graph of pressure against 1/volume
    • P1V1 = P2V2
    • Gay-Lussac's law

      For a fixed mass of gas at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature in Kelvins
    • Pressure
      Directly proportional to absolute temperature in Kelvins
    • The equation is P1/T1 = P2/T2
    • Charles' law
      For a fixed mass of gas at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature in Kelvins
    • Volume
      Directly proportional to absolute temperature in Kelvins
    • The equation is V1/T1 = V2/T2
    • Combined Gas Equation
      P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
