pressure |
force per unit area |
|
standard pressure |
760.0 mm Hg 760.0 torr 1.000 atm |
|
Boyle’s law |
volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure, provided the temperature & quantity of gas do not change v = k/p p1v1=p2v2 |
|
temperature |
measure of average kinetic energy of molecules |
|
lowest possible temperature |
absolute scale - one w 0 as lowest possible value Kelvin scale (K) - temperature scale where 0 is the lowest possible temperature K = C + 273.2 absolute zero - lowest possible temperature |
|
charles’ law |
volume of a gas directly proportional to its temperature, provided pressure & quantity of gas do not change v=kT v1/T1= v2/T2 |
|
combine charles & boyle law |
p1V1/T1=p2V2/T2 |
|
avogadro’s law |
volume of a gas is directly proportional to the quantity of gas, provided the pressure & temperature do not change V=kn |
|
ideal gas law equation |
pV=nRT |
|
partial pressures |
dalton’s law of partial pressures - total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted by each gas partial pressure - pressure a gas would exert if it were alone in a container |
|
eudiometer |
a gas collecting tube |
