temperature & ideal gas Flashcards
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics definition
temperature & ideal gas
when 2 or more objects are in thermal equilibrium, they must be at the same temperature & there is no net transfer of thermal energy between them when they are placed in thermal contact
Absolute Zero definition
temperature & ideal gas
the temperature at which all substances have minimum internal energy
Absolute/Thermodynamic Temperature Scale
temperature & ideal gas
the temperature scale that is independent of the property of any particular substance and has absolute zero
One Mole definition
temperature & ideal gas
one mole of any substance contains 6.02 × 10^23 particles
Ideal Gas definition
temperature & ideal gas
a gas obeying the equation of state pV = nRT
Basic Assumptions of the Kinetic theory of Gases
temperature & ideal gas
- perfectly elastic collisions between the gas molecules and the walls of the container
- total volume of the gas molecules is negligible compared to the volume occupied by the gas
- the duration of a collision is negligible compared with the time between collisions
- there are a large number of molecules in constant random motion
- the intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules are negligible
