Q

they collide with the walls of the container more frequently and with more

A

force

25
Q

the volume of a flexible container must then increase in order for the pressure to

A

remain the same

26
Q

the quantitative relationship between volume and temperature was discovered by the French scientist

A

Jacques charles in 1787

27
Q

Charles’s experiments showed that all gases expand to the same extent when heated through the

A

same temperature interval

28
Q

charles found that the volume changes by 1/273 of the original volume for each

A

celsius degree, at constant pressure and initial temp of 0 degrees celsius

29
Q

the same regularity of volume change occurs if a gas is cooled at

A

constant pressure

30
Q

the kelvin temperature scale is a scale that starts at a temperature corresponding to

A

-273.15 degrees celsius

31
Q

-273.15 degrees celsius is the lowest one

A

possible

32
Q

the temperature -273.15 degrees celsius is referred to as absolute zero and is given a value of

A

zero in the Kelvin scale

33
Q

K =

A

273.15 + degrees C

34
Q

gas volume and kelvin temperature are

A

directly proportional to each other at constant pressure

35
Q

charles’s law states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas at constant pressure varies directly with the

A

Kelvin temperature

36
Q

charles’s law:
V =
k=

A

V = kT

V/T= k

37
Q

the value of T is the

A

kelvin temperature

38
Q

The ratio V/T for any set of volume-temperature values always equals the same

A

k

39
Q

the form of charles’s law that can be applied directly to most volume temperature problems involving gases is:

A

V1/ T1 = V2/ T2

40
Q

V1 and T1 represent

A

initial conditions

41
Q

V2 and T2 represent a

A

different set of conditions

42
Q

when 3 of the 4 values T1, V1, T2, and V2 are known, the equation can be used to calculate the fourth value for a

A

system at constant pressure

43
Q

the energy and frequency of collisions depend on the average

A

kinetic energy of molecules

44
Q

for a fixed quantity of gas at constant volume, the pressure should be directly proportional to the

A

Kelvin temperature, which depends directly on average kinetic energy

45
Q

for every kelvin of temperature change, the pressure of a confined gas changes by

A

1/273 of the pressure at 0 degrees C

46
Q

Gay-Lussac’s law: the pressure of a fixed mass of gas at constant volume varies

A

directly with the Kelvin temperature

47
Q

Gay-Lussac’s law is expressed as :
P =
k=

A

P = kT

P/T= k

48
Q

in gay lussac’s law k is constant that depends on the

A

quantity of gas and volume

49
Q

for given mass of gas at constant volume, the ratio P/T is the same for any set of

A

pressure-temperature values

50
Q

unknown values can be found using the following form of gay-lussac’s law:

A

P1/ T1 = P2/ T2

51
Q

a gas sample often undergoes changes in temperature, pressure, and volume all at the

A

same time

52
Q

the combined law expresses the relationship between

A

pressure, volume, and temperature of a fixed amount of gas

53
Q

combined gas law: k=

A

PV/ T

54
Q

in combined gas law, k depends on the

A

amount of gas

55
Q

combined gas law can also be written as:

A

P1V1/ T1 = P2V2/ T2

56
Q

each of the gas laws can be obtained from the combined gas law when the

A

proper variable is constant

57
Q

boyle’s law is obtained from the combined gas law when

A

temperature is constant

58
Q

because T1 = T2, T1 and T2 will canel out on both sides of the combined gas law equation, giving

A

Boyle’s law
