Gas
Substance that has no well defined boundaries but diffuses rapidly to fill any container in which it is placed
Standard temperature
273K
Standard pressure
1x10^5 =100kpa
Boyles law
At constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure
Gay-lucases law of combining volumes
The volumes of the reacting gases and the volumes of any gaseous products are in the ratio of small whole numbers provided the volumes are measured at the same temperature and pressure
Avagadros law
Equal Volumes of gases contain equal numbers of molecules under the same conditions of temperature and pressure
Ideal gas
One that perfectly obeys all the assumptions of the kinetic theory of gases under all conditions of temperature and pressure
Real gases
Differ from ideal gases- forces of attraction and repulsion do exist between the molecules and the volume of the molecule is not negligible
Charles law
At constant pressure the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temp measure on the Kelvin scale
Assumptions of the kinetic theory of gasses
Gases are made up of particles that are in continuous rid motion colliding with each other
No attractive or repulsive forces between molecules of gas
Gas molecules are so small and widely separated that the actual volume of all the molecule is negligible compared with the space they occupy
When molecules collide the collisions are perfectly elastic no loss of kinetic energy
Limitations of kinetic theory
All real gases do have tiny attractive or repulsive forces
Under high pressure when molecules are crowded it is clear that their volume is not negligible to the space they occupy.
