Standard temperature and pressure (STP)
0⁰ C and 1 atm
Mean free path
The distance traveled by a gas molecule between collisions
Ideal gas law
PV = nRT
R = 0.08206 L atm/ K^-1 mol^-1
R = 8.314 J K^-1 mol^-1
T in Kelvin
At STP one mole of any gas (behaving ideally) will occupy the
standard molar volume of 22.4 liters
Partial pressure
Total pressure of a gaseous mixture times the mole fraction of the particular gas. Pₐ = αₐ P(total)
Dalton's law
Total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of each of its gases
P(total) = P₁ + P₂ + P₃...
Average translational kinetic energy
KE(avg) = (3/2)RT
Grahams law
Average speed of molecules of a pure gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass of the gas molecule
(v₁/v₂) = √m₁ /√m₂
Effusion
The spreading of gas from high pressure to very low pressure (through a pinhole)
Rates of effusion
(effusion rate₁/ effusion rate₂) = √M₂ /√M₁
M = molecular weight
Diffusion
The spreading of one gas into another gas or into empty space
Real vs. Ideal
V (real) > V (ideal)
P (real) < P (ideal)
Kinetics
The rate of reaction as it moves toward equilibrium
Thermodynamics
The balance of reactants and products after they have achieved equilibrium
Activation energy
The threshold energy required in a collision to create new molecules
Elementary reaction
Occurs in a single step

Rate Law
aA + bB → cC + dD

rate(forward) = kf [A]^α[B]^β

α + β = overall order of the reaction

α = a
β = b
Intermediates
Species that are products of one reaction and reactants of a later reaction in a reaction chain
Kinetics

α + β = overall order of the reaction

α = a
β = b
Intermediates
Species that are products of one reaction and reactants of a later reaction in a reaction chain
Chemical equilibrium
The forward reaction rate equals the reverse reaction rate
Le Chatelier's principle
When a system at equilibrium is stresses, the system will shift in a direction that will reduce stress
