Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gas Behavior Flashcards
What is the kinetic molecular theory
It is a mathematical model that explains gas behavior
What are the properties of an ideal gas
Molecules are in continuous random motion, negligible volume, negligible forces between molecules, and their molecules have elastic collisions
What are the properties of a real gas
Hip lot, high pressure, low temperature
What is the volume of an ideal gas
The volume of its container
What is the pressure exerted by a ideal gas related to
The force of the molecular collisions and the frequency that they collide with the walls of the container
What is the absolute temperature of an ideal gas proportional to
The average kinetic energy of the molecules
What is Avogadro’s law
As the number of molecules in a container is increased, the volume of the container increases as well if the pressure remains constant
What is the formulas for Avogrados Law
(V1 / n1) = (V2 / n2)
What is Dalton’s law of partial pressure
The total pressure of any mixture of gases in a container is the sum of all the individual gas’s partial pressures
What is the equation for Dalton’s law
P(total) = P(gasA) + P(gasB) + P(gasC) + …
