Gases Flashcards
0
Q
Mole Fraction
A
y(A)=n(A)/n(t)
y(A): mole fraction of component A
n(A): #moles of A
n(t): #moles total
1
Q
Partial Pressure
A
P(A)=y(A)P(t)
P(A): partial pressure of component A of the mixture
y(A): mole fraction of A in the mixture
P(t): total pressure
2
Q
Moles
A
n(A)=weight(A)/MW(A)
n(A): #moles A
MW: molecular weight A
3
Q
Partial Volume
A
V(A)=y(A)V(t)
V(A): partial volume of mixture component A
y(A): mole fraction of A
V(t): total volume of mixture
4
Q
Temperature Scales
A
0C = 273K 0F = 460R C = (F - 32) / 1.8
5
Q
Ideal Gas Law
A
PV = nRT
Pressure, Volume, #moles, constant (table look-up), Temperature
6
Q
psig psia
A
psia = psig + 14.7
Psia is an absolute scale while psig is relative to standard pressure (1 atm)
7
Q
Ideal Gas Law Shortcuts
A
P(1)V(1) = P(2)V(2) P(1)V(1)T(2) = P(2)V(2)T(1)
