15 Cards in this Set
- Front
- Back
Solid |
Atoms held tightly together, definite shape and volume |
|
Liquids |
Atoms have weaker connections with each other, definite volume and variable shape |
|
Gas |
Minimal atom interactions, Variable shape and volume |
|
Properties of Gas: |
- Can be compressed - Can exert pressure - mixture is homogeneous - Velocity is inverse to molar mass |
|
Effusion |
Movement of gas moleculesthrough pin holes from higher pressurespace to lower pressure
|
|
Why do smaller molecules move faster? |
Larger molecules need more energy to move them around |
|
Average Velocity |
The probable speed most gas molecules have |
|
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
|
Particles are in constant motion, exert no force on each other, they do not interact and have little volume |
|
How does atmosphere pressure change with altitude? |
The higher you go the less the mass of the atmosphere pushes on you since there are less molecules above |
|
Manometer |
device to measure pressure in a glass container |
|
4 variables of Gas: |
- Volume - Temperature - Pressure - Moles |
|
Boyles Law |
P1V1=P2V2 At constant temperature Pressure and volume are inversely related |
|
Charles Law |
V1 = V2 T1 T2 When Volume is constant Temperature and volume have a direct relationship |
|
Avogadros Law |
V1 = V2 n1 n2 Equal volumes at constant temperature and pressure have the same number of particles |
|
Ideal Gas Law |
PV=nRT |
