Exam 3 Flashcards
The force exerted per unit area by gas particles as they strike the surfaces around them
Gas Pressure
Higher gas concentration leads to this
Higher pressure
Greater volume leads to this
Lower pressure
An evacuated glass tube closed on one end with the open end placed in a pool of mercury
-Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is 760mmHG
Barometer
A U-shaped tube partially filled with a liquid used to measure the pressure of a gas in a container
Manometer
Four key properties of gases
Pressure (P), volume (V), temperature (T), and amount (mol)
Temperature and amount are constant
-P1V1=P2V2
-As volume decreases, pressure increases and vice versa
Boyle’s Law
Amount and pressure remain constant
-Temperature must be in Kelvin
-V1/T1=V2/T2
-Constant pressure increases as temperature increases and vice versa
Charles’s Law
Pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature
-P1/T1=P2/T2
Charles’s Law
Equal volumes of gas contain the same number of particles at the same temperature and pressure
-Only the number of particles matter
-V1/n1=V2/n2
Avogadro’s Law
A combination of the previous laws that summarizes the relationships expressed in all three
-PV=nRT
-P=pressure (atm), v=volume (L), t=temperature (K), n= moles of gas particles, R=ideal gas constant (0.08206Latm/molK)
Ideal gas Law
At STP, what is P and T?
P=1 atm
-T=0 degrees C or 273.2 K
What is the volume occupied by 1 mole of gas particles at STP?
22.4L
How to find molar mass from the mass of a gas sample and its volume at a known pressure and temperature
Molar mass= mass/Moles
P total= (n total)RT/V
-The moles of a component as divided by the total moles of a gas in a mixture
-P A=X aP total
Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures
At STP, 1 mol is equal to how many L?
1mol=22.4L
Higher temperature means what?
Faster particles
-Particle collisions are completely elastic with each other or container walls
Interaction between gas particles is negligible (attractive or repulsive)
Kinetic Molecular Theory
-Decreasing Volume: less room for gas particles, more collisions with the container, higher pressure
-Increasing volume: more room for gas particles, fewer collisions with the container, lower pressure
KMT and Boyle’s LAw
-Increasing Temperature: gas particles move faster, more collisions with the container, volume must increase to maintain pressure
-Decreasing Temperature: gas particles move slower, fewer collisions with the container, volume must decrease to maintain pressure
KMT and Charles’s Law
Increasing Amount: more gas particles present, more collisions with the container, volume must increase to maintain pressure
-Decreasing Amount: fewer gas particles present, fewer collisions with the container, volume must decrease to maintain pressure
KMT and Avogadro’s Law
-Gas particles will all have the same kinetic energy at a given temperature
-The total pressure of collisions is the same
KMT and Dalton’s Law
The process of a collection of molecules spreading out from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
Diffusion
The process by which a collection of molecules escapes through a small hole into a vacuum
Effusion
