1.09 Behaviour of gases Flashcards
gas has mass but no
shape and volume
gas consists of mostly
empty space
how do the molecules move averagely
rapidly and colide
avagrados law
equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules.
When volume-pressure-temperature changes, what does not change?
mass- Number of particles-molecules
Gases exert pressure by..
air molecules colliding with walls of inner surface and exert force
pressure metric system unit
Pa-Pascal
1000 kilo pascal is how many pascal
1
conversion of pressure:
Atmosphere atm : 1
mm of mercury/mm Hg :
Torr :
Pounds per square inch :
Pascal :
KiloPascal :
What’s the method?
Atmosphere atm : 1
mm of mercury/mm Hg : 760
Torr : 760
Pounds per square inch :14.7
Pascal : 1000,000
KiloPascal : 101.3
given amount * converting conversion number/ given conversion number
Gases are compressible True or False
True
diffusion
give example, explain
you cut an onion on one side of a room and then go to the other and it smells why?
the molecules that make up the odor move through the air from higher concentration into the lower concentration
Boyles law molecules
Pressure is also affected by the volume of the container. If the volume of a container is decreased, the gas molecules have less space in which to move around. As a result, they will strike the walls of the container more often and the pressure increases. As you increase pressure on the balloon surface the air inside also increases and volume is lessened
is Boyles law directly proportional or inversely proportional why?
inversely proportional as pressure increases volume decreases and vice versa
barometer
a device that used a column of mercury to measure the pressure that exerts on all things around us
what is constant in Boyles law
Temperature and gas molecules
