Exam 3 Flashcards
Define pressure, which all gases have
Force pushing against a surface, F/A
SI unit of pressure
Pascal = 1kg/ms^2 = 1n/m^2
Device used to measure the pressure of the atmosphere
Barometer, uses mercury
How many pascals in 1 atm
101,325 Pa
How many millimeters of mercury in 1 atm
760 mmHg
How many torrs in 1 atm
760 torr
How many pounds per square inch in 1 atm
14.7 lb/in^2
Pressure of a water barometer is proportional to
(column height)(density)
Two types of manometers, which is more convenient
Closed end, gas pressure is measured directly versus in a open end manometer where you need to know pressure of the atmosphere
What is Boyle’s law
Volume of a fixed volume of gas at a constant pressure is inversely proportional to the applied pressure
Volume of a gas is in proportion to (involving pressure)
1/P
What is Charles’s law
The volume of the gas increases linearly with temperature
Volume of a gas is in proportion to (involving temp)
T
-293.15 degrees C was deduced to be the coldest possible temp because why
A colder temp would yield a negative volume
What is Gay-Lussac’s law
Pressure of a gas increases linearly to the Kelvin temperature when volume & moles are constant
Pressure of a gas is in proportion to (involving temp)
T
