The volume (V) of a fixed quantity of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to absolute temperature (T) in Kelvin units. |
Charles Law V1/T1=V2/T2 |
|
Describe the five macroscopic characteristics of gases. |
Compressibility, space occupation, density, volume, and force/pressure exerted |
|
A fixed quantity of a gas may be made to occupy a smaller volume by applying pressure. |
Gases may be compressed. |
|
No matter the position of the piston, the gas fills the space. |
Gases expand to fill their containers uniformly. |
|
The density of gaseous air is less than the density of liquid water, which is less than the density of solid iron. |
All gases have low density. |
|
You can add a gas to a gas already occupying a rigid container of fixed volume. |
Gases may be mixed in a fixed volume |
|
A _____ exerts constant pressure on the walls of its container uniformly in all directions. |
Confined gas |
|
What is the force exerted on a unit area. |
Pressure Pressure= force/area |
|
as temperature goes up so does ____ |
volume |
|
For a fixed quantity of gas at constant temperature, pressure is inversely proportional to volume |
Boyle's Law P1V1 = P2V2 |
|
The blended version of Charles' Law and Boyles Lw. Both pressure and temperature work together to change the volume of a gas. Boyle's p1v1=p2v2 Charles v1/t1=v2/t2 |
Combined Gas Law P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2 |
