What is a mole.
a substance which contains 6.02x10^23 particles
is Na has a ram of 23, how many grams of Na will be in one mole?
23
link the equation containing, n, NA, N
N=nNA
NA=number of particles
n=moles
N=number of mols substance will contain
in what scenario would we use pV=NkT, instead of pV=nRT
we use NkT when we have number of molecules instead of moles
Do we use Kelvins or Celcius for pV=nRT and pV=NkT
kelvins
how do you convert from celcius to kelvins
add 273
what is R, (Gas constant)
8.31 J/mol K
define specific heat capacity
the energy required to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 degrees
what is specific latent heat
the energy required to melt/vapourise 1kg of a substance.
