Chem Ch. 13 & 14 Flashcards
1
Q
Boyle’s Law States that, at constant temperature…
A
The volume of a gas varies inversely with the pressure exerted upon it
2
Q
At constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of gas…
A
Varies directly with the absolute temperature
3
Q
Vacuum
A
An empty space with no particles and no pressure
4
Q
Kinetic Theory Assumptions (4)
A
- Particles in a gas are small, hard spheres with insignificant volume
- Motion of particles in a gas is rapid, constant, and random
- Collisions between particles in a gas are elastic
- No attractive or repulsive forces exist between the particles
5
Q
Why don’t all liquids boil at the same temperature?
A
Different inter molecular forces of attraction
6
Q
Ideal Gas Characteristics
A
- Particles have no volume
- No attraction between particles
- Perfectly conform to kinetic theory
IDEAL GASES DO NOT EXIST
