Question 1

limiting reagent

Answer 1

any reactant that is used up first in a chemical reaction; it determines the amount of product that can be formed in the reaction

Question 2

ideal gas law

Answer 2

the relationship PV = nRT, which describes the behavior of an ideal gas

Question 3

Boyles’s law

Answer 3

for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the volume of the gas varies inversely with pressure

Question 4

Charles’s law

Answer 4

the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature if the pressure is kept constant

Question 5

Gay Lussac’s law

Answer 5

the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature if the volume is constant
