Gases
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Boyle's Law | volume is inversely proportional to pressure at a constant temperature |
Avogadro's Law | volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of a gas in a sample, assuming temperature and pressure are constant |
Effusion | the passage of a gas through a tiny orifice into an evacuated chamber |
Diffusion | the mixing of gases |
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures | the total pressure of a sample is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each gas in the sample |
Standard Temperature and Pressure | 0 oC (273 K) and 1 atm |
Charles's Law | the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas in kelvins |
Ideal Gas Law | PV=nRT, where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in L, n is moles, T is temperature in kelvins, and R is the universal gas constant |
Volume of 1 mole of gas at STP | 22.4 L/mol |
