SCIENCE 10 - 4TH PRELIM Flashcards
Gas moves in high velocities and high kinetic energy
True
State 4 general properties:
No definite shape or volume, diffuse easily, compressed easily, and lower densities
What does it varies greatly?
Temperature and pressure
Motion of the molecules as they constantly move in all directions
Kinetic
Example of theory in kinetic energy
Billiard balls
Kinetic molecular theory assumptions:
Very tiny molecules, no force of attraction, random and linear motion, and value is proportional to kelvins temp
The ability of two or more gases to mix spontaneously until they form a uniform mixture
Diffusion
Process by which gas molecules pass through a very small opening from a container of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure
Effusion
Best known for his study on diffusion
Thomas Grahams
Defined as force per unit area
Pressure
The gases in the atmosphere exert
Atmospheric pressure
Atmospheric pressure can be measured using
Barometer
Invented barometer
Evangelista Torricelli
The SI unit of pressure
Pascal (Pa)
Atmosphere
1 atm
