Q

kinetic molecular theory assumptions

A

Gases consists of tiny particles.

Volume of the individual particles
can be assumed to be zero.

Particles are in constant, random
motion.

Particles do not attract nor repel
each other.

The average kinetic energy particles
is directly proportional to the
temperature of the gas.

Q

Quantifiable properties of gases:

A

Volume

Pressure

Temperature

Number of Particles

17
Q

Amount of space occupied by matter

Measured in L or cm3

depends on
temperature and pressure.

A

volume

18
Q

force per unit area

A

pressure

the higher the place, the lower the pressure

19
Q

average kinetic

energy of an object

A

Temperature

20
Q

The higher the amount of
moles, the higher the amount of
substance.

how many particles can I fit in that space

A

No. of particles

21
Q

Irish-born philosopher who did
investigations in physics, chemistry,
etc.

Studied the behavior of gases

Famous for his J-tube experiment

A

Robert boyle

22
Q

Temp x KE relationship

A

Directly proportional

more heat, more KE, more movement

23
Q

Pressure x Volume Relationship

A

inversely proportional

pressure increase, volume decrease

24
Q

French scientist

Provided an explanation of how hot
air balloons work

A larger volume is occupied when
gas is heated because hot air is less
dense than cold air.
