Q

What is the volume at 0 deg Celsius and 1 atm called?

A

molar volume

24
Q

What are the conditions 0 deg C and 1 atm called?

A

STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure)

25
Q

What is the molar volume of an ideal gas at STP?

26
Q

How many moles at STP?

27
Q

What is the molar mass equation?

A

MM=dRT/P (d=density)

28
Q

For a mixture of gases in a container, what is the total pressure exerted?

A

the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone

29
Q

What is partial pressure?

A

the pressure that a particular gas would exert if it were alone in the container

30
Q

What is the equation for the total pressure of the mixture Ptotal?

A

Ptotal=ntotal (RT/V)

31
Q
  1. Volume of the individual gas particle must not be important.
    2.Forces among the particles are not important. (T/F)
32
Q

What is a mole fraction?

A

The ratio of the number of moles of a given component in a mixture to the total number of moles in the mixture; is directly related to partial pressure

33
Q

What is the equation for a mole fraction?

34
Q

n2/ntotal=P2/Ptotal (T/F)

35
Q

Whose law is of partial pressures?

36
Q

P1=X1 (the partial pressure) times P total (T/F)

37
Q

Mole fraction’s units are torr. (T/F)

A

False; there are no units for mole fraction

38
Q

vapor pressure of water

A

When the rate of escape=the rate of return, the number of water molecules in the vapor state remains constant; the PRESSURE of water vapor remains the same.

39
Q

At pressures less than 1 atm, most gases closely approach ideal gas law behavior. (T/F)

40
Q

kinetic molecular theory (KMT)

A

a simple model that explains the properties of an ideal gas

41
Q

What are the postulates of the Kinetic Molecular Theory?

A
  1. The particles are so small compared with the distances between them that the volume of the individual particles can be assumed to be negligible (zero).
  2. The particles are in constant motion.
  3. The particles are assumed to exert no forces on each other; they are assumed to neither attract more repel each other.
  4. The average kinetic energy of a collection of gas particles is assumed to be directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature of the gas.
42
Q

As V is decreased, P…

43
Q

As T increases, P…

44
Q

As T increases, V… (increases/decreases)

45
Q

As n increases, V…

A

must increase.

46
Q

KMT states…

A

that independent particles are independent, and V is assumed to be 0. The identity of the molecule is therefore unimportant.

47
Q

joule=

A

kg times m^2/s^2

48
Q

KEavg= (1/2mv^2)

49
Q

u(rms- the root mean square velocity)=rad(3RT/M) (T/F)

50
Q

What is effusion?

A

the movement of a gas through a small opening into an evacuated container (vacuum)

51
Q

Diffusion

A

term used to describe the mixing of gases

52
Q

What is Graham’s law of effusion?

A

rate of effusion for gas 1/rate of effusion for gas 2= rad M2/ rad M1 (M= molar mass of gas)

53
Q

DIffusion doesn’t need a more complex analysis. (T/F)

A

False; the ratio is less or more than; a quantitative analysis of diffusion requires a more complex analysis.

54
Q

Why i shte volume available to a given particle in a real gas less than the volume of the container?

A

because the gas particles themselves take up some of the space

55
Q

real equation for ideal gas equation

A

P=nRT/(V-nb) –> b is an empirical constant

55
Q

observed pressure Pobs:

A

Pobs=(P-correction factor)=(nRT/(V-nb)- correction factor)
