Textbook Topic 9- Gas law Flashcards
(37 cards)
Gas pressure is caused by… although the force is small…..
the force exerted by the gas molecules colliding with the surfaces of objects. Although the force of each collision is very small a large SA experience lots of collision in a short time causing high air pressure
Atmospheric pressure is caused by
the weight of the column of air molecules in the atmosphere above an objet
Pressure can be increased by (Not temp or volume) (2)
increasing force or decreasing the area
In terms of weather, low-pressure systems occur when (2)
the earths atmospheric pressure is lower than the surrounding environment
moist air rises and condenses producing clouds
as you go up the troposphere (3)
air density, air pressure and temp decrease
hydrostatic pressure
pressure by a fluid due to gravity
Ideal gas
a hypothetical construct that real gases approximate under certain conditions
effects of temp on the volume of a given amount of a confined gas at constant pressure
the volume increases as the temp increases and decrease as the temp decreases
This relationship between temperature and pressure is observed for any sample of gas confined to a constant volume
not go up and down
Temperature and pressure are linearly related and proportional is temp is in Kelvin
Boyle’s Law
The volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temp is inversely porprotional to the pressure under which it is measured
If volume increase by a certain factor, the pressure will_____ assuming ____ and _____ do not change
decrease by the same factor
moles and temp
Tell me how breathing works with the lungs and shit
Breathing occurs because the expanding and contracting of your lungs causes air pressure difference causing air to be drawn into and forced out
Avogadros law
For a confined gas the volume and number of moles are proportional if the pressure and temp remain the same
ideal gas law (3)
combining all the laws with p,v,,n,t
Pv=nRT
describes gas under ideal conditions
ideal conditions of gas us holds true to real life when conditions are:
gas is under low pressure and high temp
combined gas law when moles are the same
P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
Combined gas law when moles are different
P1V1/n1T1=P2V2/n2T2
If the number of moles of an ideal gas are kept constant under two different sets of conditions, a useful
mathematical relationship called the combined gas law. In the combined gas law, both sets of conditions are equal to the product of….
moles(R)
nR
general units for combined gas law
atm, K, L
standard temperature and pressure
1 mole of an ideal gas have v=22.4L
p=1atm
T=273.15K
Difference between density and ideal gas law
Density is an characteristic determined by its identity
ideal gas law relates these properties in identical fashion regardless of the chemical identity of the gas
density formula
d= (molar mass)(p)/(RT)
Daltons’s Law of partial pressures+ equation
The total pressure of a mixture of ideal gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the component gases
Ptotal= Pa+Pb+Pc….
Each individual gas in a mixture exerts
the same pressure that it would exist if it were present alone in the container
