Topic 3 Flashcards
What are the physical properties of Gases?
Highly compressible
Infinitely miscible
Thermally expandable
Low density
How does a Gas exert pressure on its environment?
The molecules are in constant motion and hit the walls
What is the formula for Pressure?
Pressure = Force (N) / Surface Area (m^2)
What are the units of pressure?
N/m^2 = Pascal (Pa)
mmHg (torr)
atm
What is the equivalence of the different type of pressures?
1 atm = 760mmHg = 101325 Pa = 760 Torr
What are the 3 Gas laws called?
Boyles Law
Charle’s Law
Avogadro’s Law
What does Boyles Law state?
At a constant temperature, pressure is inversely proportional to volume. If pressure increases volume will decrease
What is the formula for Boyles Law?
P1V1=P2V2
What does Charles’ Law state?
At a constant pressure, temperature is directly proportional to volume
What is the formula for Charles’ Law?
V1/T1 = V2/T2
How do you fine Temperature in Kelvins from Celcius?
T(k) = T(c) + 273.15
What does Avogadro’s Law state?
Temperature is directly proportional to volume, at a constant pressure
What is the Formula for Avogadro’s law?
V1/n1 = V2/n2
When is each R constant used?
- 314 when pressure is in pascals
0. 08206 when pressure is in atm
When is the formula for Density?
d= m/v
What is Daltons law of Partial Pressure?
In a mixture of non-reacting gasses the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gasses
What are the 5 parts of kinetic molecular theory?
- Gasses are made of particle with no defined volume
- Particles are in continuous random motion
- Particles move independently and experience no inter-particle forces
- Particles collide with each other and the walls of the container
- The average kinetic energy is the same for all gasses at a given temperature
What is the formula for the pressure of 1 particle moving in 1 dimension?
P = (mu^2) / v
What is the formula for the large volume of particle moving in 3-D?
(2/3) [n(N0.5mu^2)]/v
What is the formula for kinetic energy of one particle of gas?
(1/2)mu^2
What is Diffusion?
The process by with a substance mixes with one or more substances following the movement of particle
What does it mean if PV/RT > 1?
The effect of particle volume dominates
What does it mean if PV/RT < 1?
The effect of inter-particle attraction dominates
What occurs in real gasses the Kinetic Molecular theory fails to comply with?
- Particles in real gasses experience weak inter-particle attraction
- Particles in a real gas occupy a finite volume
