Term
Properties of Gases
Definition
Gases have no definite shape or volume

Fill the whole volume of any container

Molecules are far apart

Can be easily compressed
Term
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
Definition
Gas consist of small particles that

Move randomly in straight lines, with high velocities.

are very far apart and have essentially no attractive or repulsive forces

Have Very small volumes compared to the volume of the container they occupy

have kinetic energies that increase with an increase in temperature.
Term
Properties of Gases described in terms of four properties
Definition
Pressure
Volume
Temperature
Amount
Term
Pressure(P)
Definition
The force exerted by a gas against the walls of a the container.
Term
Volume (V)
Definition
The space occupied by the gas
Term
Volume (V) units
Definition
Liters (L)
Milliliters (mL)
Term
Temperature (T)
Definition
Determines the kinetic energy
Term
Temperature (T) units
Definition
Kelvin (K)
Celsius (C)
Term
Amount (n)
Definition
The quanity of gas
Term
Amount (n) units
Definition
mole (mol)
gram (g)
Term
For gas we always us what for our calculations
Definition
Kelvins and moles
Term
Pressure (P) units
Definition
atm
mm Hg
torr
Term
atmospheric pressure
Definition
pressure exerted by a column of air from the top of the atmosphere to the surface of the earth
Term
What is the atmospheric Pressure at sea level
Definition
1 atm
Term
what happens to atmospheric pressure at high altitudes
Definition
it becomes lower because the density of air is less
Term
Below sea level atmosphere pressure is
Definition
greater then 1 atm
Term
Barometer
Definition
is used to measure atmospheric pressure
Term
Barometers indicate atmospheric pressure as the
Definition
height in mm of the mercury column
Term
Boyle's Law
Definition
The pressure of a gas is inversely related to its volume when T and n are constant.

If pressure increases then volume decreases
Term
Charles's Law
Definition
The Kelvin temperature of a gas is directly related to the volume when P and n are constant.
Term
Charles's law when the temperature of a gas increases
Definition
its volume increases
Term
Gay-Lussac's law
Definition
The pressure exerted by a gas is directly related to the Kelvin temperature, when V and n are constant
Term
Avogadro's Law
Definition
The volume of a gas is directly related to the number of moles of gas when T and P are constant

when the number of moles of a gas increases its volumes increases.
Term
Dalton's Law of partial pressure
Definition
the partial pressure of a gas is the pressure exerted by each gas in a mixture.
Term
Vapor Pressure
Definition
Pressure created by the vapor molecules above the surface of liquid
Term
Vapor Pressure increases as
Definition
temperature increases
Term
At the boiling point of liquid
Definition
vapor pressure above the liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure
Term
solutions
Definition
are homogeneous mixtures of two or more substances
Term
Solutions consist
Definition
of a solvent and one or more solutes
Term
The solute is dissolved
Definition
in the solvent to make a solution
Term
Solute and solvent do
Definition
not react with each other, Just mix
