Universal gas equation Flashcards
Relationship between volume and pressure when temp and no. particles are the same?
Volume of gas is inversely proportional to pressure
V ∝ 1/P or PV = K (constant at given temp)
Relationship between volume and number of particles when pressure and temp are same?
As no. particles increases, volume increases
V ∝n or V/n = K (constant at given temp and pressure)
Relationship between volume and temp?
V ∝t or V/t = K (constant at given pressure)
What happens as temp increases?
average kinetic energy of gas molecules can increase (therefore they move quicker and collide with walls and other molecules more frequently)
What happens when temp increases but volume is the same
pressure increases
What happens when temp increases but presure stays the same?
volume can increase (like a balloon)
Universal gas equation?
PV = nRT where R is gas constant
What is the gas constant?
8.31JK-1mol-1, but only when P is kPa, V is L, n is moles and T is Kelvin scale.
what does the Kelvin Scale show?
the relationship between temperature (*C) and volume (mL). When mL = 0, *C = -273.
kelvin scale equation?
• Temperature (K) = T (*C) + 273
Define: molar volume
the volume occupied by 1 mol of any gas at a particular temperature and pressure.
molar volume equation?
V_m=V/n
what are standard laboratory conditions?
25*C and 100kPa
Define: ideal gas
theoretical gas that does not interact except for during elastic collisions. Molar volume is 24.8 mol L-1
in slc, do most gases behave like theoretical gases?
Yes
