gaseous state Flashcards
1
Q
assumptions of the kinetic theory of gases
A
- volume of the gas particles is negligible compared to the volume of the container
-there are no intermolecular forces of attraction between the gaseous particles
2
Q
dalton’s law of partial pressure
A
in a mixture of gases that do not react with one another, the total pressure exerted by the gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas
3
Q
definition of an ideal gas
A
-obeys the ideal gas equation pV= nRT exactly under all conditions of temperature and pressure
- obeys all assumptions of the kinetic theory of gases
4
Q
conditions for ideal gas behaviour
A
high temperature- high kinetic energy, sufficient energy to overcome the intermolecular forces of attraction between gas particles
low pressure- volume of gas is large, gas is spaced far apart. volume of gas particles is negligible compared to volume of the container
