compressibility
|
a measure of how much a given volume of matter decreases when placed under pressure
|
|
|
Avogadro's law
|
states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas when the temperature and pressure are held constant
|
|
|
Boyle's law
|
states that the volume of a given mass of gas varies inversely with the pressure when the temperature is kept constant
|
|
|
Charles's law
|
expresses the relationship between the pressure, volume, and absolute temperature of a fixed amount of gas
|
|
|
Gay-Lussac's law
|
states that the pressure of a given mass of gas varies directly with the absolute temperature of the gas when the volume is kept constant
|
|
|
ideal gas constant
|
the variable "R" in the equation PV=nRT
|
|
|
ideal gas law
|
a single equation which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles for any ideal gas
|
|
|
real gas
|
a gas that does not behave according to the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory
|
|
|
kinetic-molecular theory
|
a theory that explains the states of matter and is based on the idea that matter is composed of tiny particles that are always in motion
|
|
|
