the behavior of gases
Term | Definition |
---|---|
kinetic molecular theory | an explanation of how particles in matter behave |
pressure | the amount of force applied per unit of area |
Boyle's law | pressure of a gas increases if the volume decreases and pressure off a gas decreases if the volume increases, when temperature is constant. |
Charles's law | the volume of a gas increases with increasing temperature , if the pressure is constant |
Boyle's law graph | Curved (inverse) |
Charles's law graph | Straight (directly) |
Boyle's law: greatest volume | least pressure |
Boyle's law: less volume | more pressure |
Boyle's law: least volume | most pressure |
Charles's law: lower temperature | less volume |
Charles's law:higher temperature | greater volume |
