Q

If height of side exposed to atmosphere is higher in a manometer what does that mean about the pressure of the gas?

A

The gas pressure is greater

17
Q

If height of side exposed to atmosphere is lower in a manometer what does that mean about the pressure of the gas?

A

The pressure of the gas is less than the atmosphere

18
Q

What did Boyle’s law find? What is kept constant? What is formula?

A

Pressure and volume are inversely proportional

Temperature and moles

P1V1=P2V2

19
Q

What did Charles’s law find? What is kept constant? What is the formula? What unit for temperature is required?

A

Volume and temperature are directly proportional

Pressure and moles

V1/T1=V2/T2

Kelvin

20
Q

What does the combined gas law include? What is the formula? What unit must the temperature be in?

A

Boyle’s and Charles’s law

P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2

Kelvin

21
Q

What does Avogadro’s Law relate? What stays constant? What is the formula?

A

Volume is directly proportional to moles of gas

Temperature and pressure

V1/n1=V2/n2

22
Q

What does the ideal gas law include? What is the formula? What does temperature have to be in?

A

Boyle’s law, Charle’s law, and Avogadro’s law

PV=nRT

Kelvin

23
Q

What is one joule equivalent to?

A

Pam^3 or kpa L

24
Q

If we know the mass of a gas, what form of the ideal gas law can we use?

A

PV=(m/M)RT

25
Q

If we know the density what form of the ideal gas law can we use?

A

d=PM/RT

26
Q

If you have the total pressure and the percentage of each gas in the mixture how can you find their partial pressure?

A

Multiply the percent as a decimal by the total pressure

27
Q

What is the formula for total pressure?

A

Ptotal = Pa+Pb+Pc+…

28
Q

What is the mole fraction?

A

Moles of one thing/total moles

Which is equal to partial pressure of the thing/total pressure

29
Q

What is the equation for collecting gases over water?

A

Ptotal=Pgas+Ph2o

30
Q

What is the volume of one mole of gas at stp?

A

22.7 L

31
Q

How do you find the limiting reagent?

A

Find moles and divide by coefficients in balanced chemical eqaution

32
Q

What does the kinetic molecular theory assume?

A
  1. The size of gas particle is extremely small (negligible)
  2. The avg kinetic energy of a particle is proportional to the temperature in Kelvin
  3. No interaction during collision
33
Q

What is the formula for the avg kinetic energy of one particle? What do the variables represent?

A

KE=1/2mu^2

M is mass
U is velocity

34
Q

What are the units for calculating root mean square velocity?

A

R- 8.314 j/molK

T- Kelvin

M- kg/mol

35
Q

What is the variation in speed with molar mass (graph)?

A

Gases with a lighter molar mass have a distribution that’s shifted toward higher velocity and a broader line

36
Q

What is the mean free path?

A

Average distance travelled between collisions

37
Q

What is effusion?

A

Gas escapes from container through small hole into a vacuum

38
Q

What is the difference in the equations for effusion rate and time?

A

In rate the rate and molar mass of same substance are in numerator and denominated and time the time and molar mass of same substance are in numerator or denominator togehter

39
Q

What causes gases to not act ideal?

A

High pressure and low temperatures
