Term
Boyles Law
Definition
P1V1=P2V2
Term
Charles's Law
Definition
V1/T1=V2/T2
Term
Combined Gas Law
Definition
(P1V1)/T1=(P2V2)/T2
Term
Ideal Gas Law
Definition
PV=nRT (R = universal gas constant, 0.0821)
Term
STP
Definition
Temperature: 273K
Pressure: 1 atm
V of one mole of gas: 22.4 L
Term
Gas Density
Definition
D=(PMM)/(RT)
Term
Avogadro's Law
Definition
Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.
Term
Mole Fractions
Definition
N1/Nt=P1/Pt
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory #1
Definition
Gases consist of large numbers of molecules that are in continuous random motion.
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory #2
Definition
The volume of all the molecules of gas is negligible compared to the total volume in which the gas is contained (because the molecules are so small)
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory #3
Definition
Gas molecules don't attract or repel each other.
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory #4
Definition
The collisions of gas molecules are elastic (they don't lose any energy or charge or anythann)
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory #5
Definition
The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the absolute temperature, and at any given temperature, all molecules have the same average kinetic energy.
Term
What causes pressure of gas?
Definition
The collisions of gas particles against walls of the container. The pressure is determined by how often and with what force the molecules hit.
Term
Average Kinetic Energy
Definition
KEave=3/2(RT) (R=8.31) *Only need T
Term
Root mean square velocity
Definition
uRMS=radical((3RT)/M) (R=8.31, M=molar mass in kg)
Term
Effusion
Definition
The escape of gas molecules through a tiny hole into evacuated space.
Term
Diffusion
Definition
Spread of one substance through a space of a second substance.
Term
Graham's Law/rate of effusion
Definition
R1/R2=radical(m2/m1) (m = molar mass)
Term
Average speed of gases
Definition
Gas molecules have an average speed, but there is a range of speeds for each individual molecule. As the temperature increases, there are less molecules with the average speed and a greater range of speeds.
Term
Increase V at constant T
Definition
Average Kinetic Energy is the same, but particles have farther to travel before colliding with the container; less collisions; decreased pressure.
Term
Increase T at constant V
Definition
Average Kinetic Energy increases, increase in urms; more collisions; increased P.
Term
Van Der Waals Equation
Definition
[image]
Term
A in Van Der Waals
Definition
Makes the P higher to adjust for attractive forced
Term
B in Van Der Waals
Definition
Makes the V lower to make up for the molecules volume...wait what?
