Q

Ideal Gases

A
  • Particles have no Volume
  • No attractions or repulsions
  • Collide without loss of energy
17
Q

Real Gases

A
  • Have volume
  • Have attraction b/w particles
  • Some energy can be transferred to surroundings
18
Q

How can real gases behave most like ideal gases?

A
  • High Temperature

- Low Pressure

19
Q

Which elements are most like ideal gases?

A

Hydrogen and Helium are most like ideal gases because they are SMALL!!!

20
Q

What is vapor pressure?

A

The pressure the liquid exerts on the side of the container it is in. When the vapor pressure reaches atmospheric pressure, the liquid boils

21
Q

The lowest vapor pressure has

A
  • The highest BP

- Strongest intermolecular forces

22
Q

High vapor pressure has

A
  • Lowest BP

- Weakest intermolecular forces

23
Q

Avogadro’s Hypothesis

A

equal volumes of gases have the same number of molecules
