gases Flashcards
molecules of a gas moving chaotically, excerting force, and creating an outward push against the walls of a container
pressure
CONVERTION
what is 1 atm in
- mmHg
- torr
- Pa
- kPa
- mmHg: 760
- torr: 760
- Pa: 101.325
- kPa: 101.325
force excerted by the atmosphere on a given surface area
- dependent on location, temperature, and weather conditions
atmospheric pressure
who was able to publish the complete theory of kinematic molecules in 1857
rudolf clausius
what are the most prominent points of the kinetic molecular theory
- random motion
- negligible molecular volume and forces
- hight temp=high kinematic energy
- low temp = low kinematic energy
quantitative relationship between pressure and volume
boyle’s law
- pressure and volume are inversely proportional
formula for boyle’s law
P1V1=P2V2
relationship between temperature and volume
charles’ law
formula for charles’ law
V1/T1=V2/T2
states that the relationship between absolute temperature and pressure is direct.
Gay Lussac’s law
formula for gay lussac’s law
P1/T1=P2/T2
the amount of gas is held at constant
this refers to the temperature - pressure - volume relationship
combined gas law
formula of the combined gas law
P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
law states that volume of gas maintained at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas
volume - amount (moles) relationship
V1/n1=V2/n2
hypothetical gas with pressure, volume, and temperature are described with the assumption that molecules do not interact with one another and the combined volume of the molecules is much smaller than the volume the gas occupies
ideal gas law
