Ideal Gas Laws Flashcards
1
Q
Mole:
A
Mass of a substance that contains a number of particles equal to the Avogadro constant.
2
Q
Molar mass:
A
The mass of 1 mole of a substance.
3
Q
p1V1/T1
A
= p2V2/T2
4
Q
Brownian motion: The smoke particles move in a ‘jittering’ motion.
A
- The molecules in a gas move at random with different speeds.
- When a molecule collides with another molecule or a solid surface, it bounces and kinetic energy is conserved between them.
- Every impact causes a tiny force on the surface.
- The pressure exerted on a surface is measurable because of the very large number of impacts per second.
5
Q
Bromine diffusion is slow in air, because bromine particles change direction when they collide with air particles but…
A
It’s almost instantaneous in a vacuum because gas moves at fast speeds.
