1
Q
What is Avogadro’s law?
A
Equal volumes of different gases at the same pressure and temperature will contain equal numbers of particles
2
Q
How do you calculate the volume of a gas from a given mass?
A
Calculate the amount in moles from the mass - Moles=mass/molar mass
Calculate the volume at r.t.p
volume x moles
3
Q
How do you calculate the mass of a gas from a given volume?
A
Calculate the amount in moles-moles=volume/molar mass
Calculate the mass- mass=moles x molar mass
4
Q
What is the ideal gas equation?
A
pV = nRT
p=pressure(Pa), V=volume(m3), n=no. of moles, R=gas constant(8.31JK-1 mol-1), T=temperature(K)
