Absolute Zero

cava 303 s2d10 1.11 Absolute Zero

QuestionAnswer
[M-] of gas molecules account for the properties of gases. Motions of gas molecules account for the properties of gases.
Pressure: the combined forces of the [...] between gas particles and the walls of the container Pressure: the combined forces of the collisions between gas particles and the walls of the container
Temperature: the measure of molecular [...] Temperature: the measure of molecular motion (average kinetic energy)
Volume: the moving gas molecules occupy [...] Volume: the moving gas molecules occupy space
Movement energy is called [...] Energy Movement energy is called Kinetic Energy
When you heat particles, they move [-er], thus they have more kinetic energy When you heat particles, they move faster, thus they have more kinetic energy
Temperature is a measure of the average [...] energy of the molecules in a system. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a system.
Lord [...] introduced absolute zero. Lord Kelvin introduced absolute zero.
Kelvin reasoned that there must be a temperature at which average kinetic energy is [...] and all motion stops. He called this temperature absolute zero. Kelvin reasoned that there must be a temperature at which average kinetic energy is zero and all motion stops. He called this temperature absolute zero.
Nothing can be colder than absolute zero because temperature is a measure of motion, and all motion (atomic, molecular) [...] at absolute zero. Nothing can be colder than absolute zero because temperature is a measure of motion, and all motion (atomic, molecular) ceases at absolute zero.
Gas law problems must use the [...] (absolute) temperature scale. Gas law problems must use the Kelvin (absolute) temperature scale.
There are no [n-] measurements possible in Kelvin. There are no negative measurements possible in Kelvin.
Kelvin is always a [-er] number than the equivalent Celsius. Kelvin is always a bigger number than the equivalent Celsius.
The Kelvin and Celsius scales are exactly the same, except for that fact that [...] is in the right place on the Kelvin scale. The Kelvin and Celsius scales are exactly the same, except for that fact that zero is in the right place on the Kelvin scale.
K = °C [...] 273 K = °C + 273
°C = K [...] 273 °C = K – 273

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
