Gas Phase Flashcards
sphygomomanaometers
medical device that measures blood pressure – barometer
Gases
the least dense phase of matter
conform to the shapes of their containers (fluid does the same)
easily compressible
Standard temperature and pressure (STP)
273K (0C) and 1 atm
ideal gas law
describes the relationship between the four variables of the gas state for an ideal gas.
Avogadros principle
special case of the ideal gas law for which the PRESSURE and TEMPERATURE are held constant
shows a direct relationship between the number of moles of gas and volume
Boyles law
special case of the ideal gas law for which the TEMPERATURE and NUMBER OF MOLES are held constant
shows an inverse relationship between pressure and volume
Charle’s law
special case of the ideal gas law for which the PRESSURE and NUMBER OF MOLES are held constant
shows an direct relationship between temperature and volume
Gay - Lussac’s law
special case of the ideal gas law for which VOLUME and NUMBER OF MOLES are held constant
shows a direct relationship between temperature and pressure
combined gas law
is a combination of Boyle’s, Charle’s, and Gay Lussac’s law
it shows an inverse relationship between pressure and volume along with direct relationships between pressure and volume with temperature.
Dalton’s law of partial pressure
states that individual gas components of a mixture of gases will exert individual pressures in proportion of their mole fractions.
The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of the component gases.
Henry’s law
states that the amount of gas dissolved in solution is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas at the surface of a solution.
kinetic molecular theory
attempts to explain the behavior of gas particles.
It makes a number of assumptions about gas particles.
gas particles
have negligible volume
do not have intermolecular attractions or repulsion
undergo random collisions with each other and the walls of the container
collision between gas particles are
elastic
the average kinetic energy of gas particles is __________ proportional
directly
