ch 10 Flashcards
phases of matter
solids, liquids and gases
solids have
the strongest intermolecular forces and a fixed volume shape
liquids have
a weaker intermolecular force and takes the shape of the container but not volume
Gases
Fills the entire container (volume) takes the shape
Intermolecular forces are very weak
Lowest density of matter
Particles do not interact much with each other
Kinetic molecular theory
describes the behaviour of ideal gases
T IS ALWAYS IN
K
T (in K)=
T (in K)= T(in C + 273.15)
Pressure formula
Pressure= Force/Area
How do ideal gases behave?
1 ideal gases are in constant, random motion and move in straight lines
2 the volume of a volume gas is considered to be zero
3 They are elastic
4 There are no intermolecular forces (they dont attract or repel each other)
5 Temperature is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the gas particle
Any gas behaves ideally in what conditions
Any gas behaves ideally in low pressures and high temperatures
What would happen if gases had volume
They would be large and have more intermolecular forces to each other. They would react less with the walls and result in a decrease of pressure
What would happen if collisions were not elastic?
Over time the particles would hit the walls with less force and there would be a decrease in pressure
SI unit of pressure
1 Pa = 1N/m^2
atmospheric pressure
1 atm=1bar
avogradro says
more particles=larger volume
volume in gas is directly proportional to the number of moles in the gas
