Gas Laws Flashcards
What did Boyle discover
Pressure-volume relationship
For a given mass of a gas at a constant temperature, the volume of a gas varies inversely with pressure
What did Charles discover
Temperature and volume of a gas at constant pressure
For a given mass of a gas at a constant pressure, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin
What did Gay-Lussac discover
Temperature and pressure
For a given volume of gas, as the temperature of an enclosed gas increases, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional
Combined gas law
Relationship between temperature, pressure, and volume of a gas
True or false: Boyle’s law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume
True
True or false: Charle’s law states that volume and temperature are directly proportional
True
True or false: Gay-Lussac’s law states that pressure and temperature are directly proportional
True
True or false: If the pressure is increased by a factor of 3 times then the volume will increase by a factor of 2 times
False
True or false: If the temperature is increased by a factor of 2 times then the pressure will increase by a factor of 2 times
True
True or false: Decreasing the volume of a container by 1/2 will double the pressure
True
True or false: A graph of volume vs. temperature will produce a curve
False
True or false: A graph of an inversely proportional relationship will produce a straight line
False
True or false: When steam condenses in a closed container a partial vacuum is created
True
True or false: A balloon placed in cold water will increase in volume
False
Kinetic Theory of Matter
All particles of matter are in constant motion
