MmHg
Unit of measure for pressure based on barometer readings
Pressure
The distribution of a force across a designated area
P=Fn/A
Torr
Unit of pressure equal to 1mmHg
Pascal (Pa)
Unit of pressure
Pa= 1 N/m^2
atm
Unit of pressure measure based on sea level Generally accepted =101,325 Pa =29.92 mmHg =14.7 psi
Manometer
Laboratory equipment used to measure pressure
Simple gas laws
1) boyles law
2) charles law
3) avogadros law
Boyles law
V1P1=V2P2
Charles’ law
V1/T1=V2/T2
Avagodro’s law
V1/n1=V2/n2
Ideal gas law
PV=nR*T
R=0.08206
atm, L, mol, K
Ideal Gas Constant
R=0.08206
Molar Volume
Volume occupied by one mole of a substance
Standard temperature
0 C = 273 K
Standard pressure
1 atm
Gas density
Density = (molar mass)/(molar volue)
Partial pressure
Presure exerted by an individual gas in a mixture
Pn=nn (RT/V)
Daltons law
The sum of all partial pressures is equal to the total pressure
Kinetic molecular theory
Gas is represented by a series of tiny particles
1) the size of a particle is negligably small
2) the kinetic energy of each particle is proportional to the temperature in Kelvins
3) The collision of one particle with another results in an exchange of energy
Work on the Kinetic molecular theory with the gas law

Avagadros number
NA= 6.022x10^-23
Mole
Avagodros number of atoms (or molecules) of a given substance
Kinetic energy of a given particle
KE=1/2 (m*v^2)
Lighter particles carry more kinetic energy
Average kinetic energy
KE=(3/2)RT
