Compressibility
|
measure of how much the volume of matter decreases under pressure.
|
|
Why are gases easily compressed?
|
Because of the space between the particles in a gas.
|
|
What factors affect gas pressure?
|
The amount of gas, volume and temperature.
|
|
Boyle's Law
|
For a given mass of of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas varies inversely with pressure.
|
|
Boyle's Law equation
|
P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
|
|
Charles's Law
|
the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature if the pressure is kept constant.
|
|
Charles's Law equation
|
V1/T1 = V2/T2
|
|
Gay-Lussac's Law
|
the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature if the volume remains constant.
|
|
Gay-Lussac's Equation
|
P1/T1 = P2/T2
|
|
The Combined Gas Law
|
The combined gas law allows you to do calculations for situations in which only the amount of gas is constant
|
|
Combined Gas Law Equation
|
P1 x V1/T1 = P2 x V2/T2
|
|
Ideal Gas Law
|
To calculate the number of moles of a contained gas requires an expression that contains the variable n. The gas law that includes all 4 variables - P, V, T and n is the ideal gas law.
|
|
Ideal Gas Law equation
|
P1 x V1/T1 x n1 = P2 x V2/T2 x n2 OR
P x V = n x R x T or PV = nRT |
|
What is the value of the ideal gas constant R?
|
r = 0.0821 L x atm/mole x K
or 8.315 dm3 x kPa/mole x K |
|
When do real gases differ most from an ideal gas?
|
at low temperatures and high pressures
|
|
Dalton's Law of partial pressures
|
at constant volume and temperature, the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of the component gases
|
|
Dalton's equation
|
P total = P1 + p2 +p3+...
|
|
How many liters does 1 mole of gas occupy at standard tyemperature (273K) and pressure(101.3kPa) (STP)?
|
22.4L
|
|
Avogadro's Principle
|
V1/n1 = V2/n2
|
|
1 atmosphere is equal to how many kPA?
|
1 atm = 101.3kPA
|
|
How many mm HG is 1 atmosphere equal to?
|
1 atmosphere is equal to 760 mm HG;
|
|
converting kPa to atmospheres
|
1 atmosphere/101.3 kPa
|
|
converting kPa to mm HG
|
760mm HG/101.3kPa
|
|
Kelvin boiling point
|
373 degrees Kelvin
|
|
Kelvin freezing point
|
273 degrees Kelvin
|
|
1 bar is equal to
|
14.503774 pounds per square inch (psi)
|
|
1 torr
|
1 mmHG at 0 degrees Celsius
