Particle Pressure π· Flashcards
What is particle pressure?
Particle pressure is the pressure exerted by particles in a substance due to their motion and collisions.
True or False: Particle pressure only occurs in gases.
False
Fill in the blank: The more rapidly particles move, the ______ the particle pressure.
higher
What factors affect particle pressure?
Temperature, volume, and the number of particles.
What is the relationship between temperature and particle pressure?
As temperature increases, particle pressure typically increases.
Multiple Choice: Which of the following increases particle pressure? A) Decreasing temperature B) Increasing volume C) Increasing the number of particles D) None of the above
C) Increasing the number of particles
Define particle pressure in terms of collisions.
Particle pressure is the result of particles colliding with the walls of a container, creating force.
True or False: In a closed container, particle pressure remains constant regardless of temperature changes.
False
What happens to particle pressure when a gas is compressed?
Particle pressure increases.
Fill in the blank: The unit of pressure is ______.
Pascal (Pa)
Short answer: How does the number of particles in a gas affect its pressure?
More particles lead to more collisions, which increases pressure.
Multiple Choice: Which gas law relates pressure, volume, and temperature? A) Boyleβs Law B) Charlesβs Law C) Ideal Gas Law D) Daltonβs Law
C) Ideal Gas Law
True or False: Particle pressure can be measured in liquids.
True
What is the effect of decreasing the volume of a gas on particle pressure?
Decreasing the volume increases particle pressure.
Fill in the blank: In a gas, particle pressure is caused by particles moving ______.
randomly
