State Boyle's Law

At a constant temperature, the pressure p and volume v of a gas are inversely proportional

State Charles' Law

At constant pressure p, the volume V of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature

State the Pressure Law

Which constant do you achieve if you combine all three gas laws?

p(v/T) = constant

What is the Ideal Gas equation?

pV = nRT

In the Ideal Gas equation, what does R represent?

R = molar gas constant (8.31Jmol^-1 K^-1)

In the Ideal Gas equation, what does n represent?

n = number of moles

In the equation of State, what does N represent?

What does k represent in the equation of state?

k = Boltzmann's Constant (R/N_A)

What is the equation of State?

pV = NkT

Describe how a gas exerts pressure on the walls of its container

>Particles have random motion & no attractive forces between them therefore move with constant velocity according to N1L

> N3L; particles collide with wall which exerts equal & opposite force on particles. They also collide with each other

>N2L - change in momentum when particles collide with wall; a force proportional to its mass and velocity.

>Lots of particles exerting forces on each other and the wall therefore steady, even force which causes a pressure on the container.

State the assumptions of Kinetic Theory

1. Gas contains a large number of particles
2. Particles move rapidly and hapharzardly
3. Motion of particles follows Newton's laws
4. There're no attractice forces between the particles
5. Collisions between particles and walls, and between particles themselves are perfectly elastic
6. Any forces acing during collisions and instantaneous
7. Particles have negligible volume compared with the volume of the container

 Describe an experiment you could use to demonstrate Brownian Motion

Put some smoke in a glass cell and shine a beam of light onto it.

Use a microscope to to view the smoke particles

How do you convert from Celsius to Kelvin in degrees?

K = C + 273.15
