Equations Flashcards
Molarity equation
M1V1 = M2V2
M = mol
V = volume
(a)MaVa = MbVb(b)
for acid-base reactions
Boyle’s law
P1V1 = P2V2
The volume of a given amount of gas held at a constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure under which it is measured
P = pressure
V = volume
Charles’ Law
V1/T1 = V2/T2
Volume of gas is proportional to its temperature on the Kelvin scale when pressure is held constant
V = volume
T = temperature (K)
K = °C +273
Gay-Lussac’s Law
P1/T1 = P2/T2
The pressure of a gas is proportional to its temperature on the Kelvin scale when the volume is held constant
P = pressure
T = temperature
Avogadro’s Law
V1/n1 = V2/n2
For a confined gas, the volume and number of moles are directly proportional if the pressure and temperature remain constant
V = volume
n = number (in moles)
Ideal Gas Law
PV = nRT
Shows the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles in a gas
P = pressure
V = volume
n = moles
R = ideal gas constant (0.08206 or 8.314)
T = temperature
Ideal gas constant values and units (R)
0.08206 L·atm/mol·K
8.314 kPa·L/mol·K
62.364 L·mmHg/K·mol
Combined Gas Law
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
Use if the moles are kept constant
Molar mass of a gas
M = dRT/P
M = molar mass of the gas
d = density
R = ideal gas law constant
T = temperature
P = pressure
