6.6 Gas Pressure And Temperature Flashcards
(5 cards)
Why is the pressure of gas caused?
Because of the random impacts of gas molecules on surfaces that are in contact with the gas
What happens if the temperature of a gas in the sealed container is increased?
The pressure of the gas increases
Why does the pressure of gas increase when the temperature is increased in a sealed container?
Because the molecules move faster, so they hit the surfaces with more force
What happens to the total force of gas when the temperature is increased in a sealed container?
The 2 to force of the impacts increases as the number of impacts per second of the gas molecules on the surfaces of the container increases
What does the unpredictable motion of smoke show?
The random motion of gas molecules
