Solids, liquids and gases Flashcards
density =
mass / volume
how will an object float?
if its density is lower than the fluid
measurement for density
g/cm³ or kg/m³
pressure =
force / area
measurement of force
Newtons
pressure difference =
height x density x gravity
particles will evaporate if…
travelling in right direction
travelling fast enough
near the surface
what is proportional to the temp of a gas?
kinetic energy of particles
what is Brownian motion?
large, heavy particles can be moved with Brownian motion by smaller, lighter particles travelling at high speeds
what is 0 degrees Celsius in Kelvins
273
equation when temp is constant
pressure (1) x volume (1) = pressure (2) x volume (2)
equation when volume is constant
pressure (1) / temp (1) = pressure (2) / temp (2)
measurement of pressure
Pascals (Pa or KPa)
