Gas Laws, Ideal Gas Laws, and Real Gases Flashcards
Units of Pressure
1.01325e5 Pa = 1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr
What happens to the pressure if the volume of a container is decreased?
Increased; P is proportionate to 1/v
What happens to the pressure if we increase the temperature inside the container?
Increased; P is proportionate to T
Boyle’s Law
P1V1 = P2V2
- used only at constant T and n
Charle’s Law
V1/T1 = V2/T2
- used only with constant P and n
Avogadro’s Law
1 mol = 22.4 L ONLY AT STP
Standard Temperature and Pressure
1 atm and 0 degrees C
Ideal Gas Law
PV = nRT
Gas constant (R)
.08206 l x atm/mol x K
Alternate form of Ideal Gas Law
P1V1/n1T1 = P2V2/n2T2
Gas Density and Molar Mass IGL formula
PMm = dRT
- d = density
- Mm = molar mass
Dalton’s Law
The pressure of a single gas in a mixture of gases it called its partial pressure
Real Gases
do not often behave like ideal gases at high pressure or low temperature
Ideal Gas Laws assume
- no attractions between gas molecules
- gas molecules do not take up space
