| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| properties of gasses | 1. no definite shape or volume 2. exert pressure on surroundings 3. volumes change with temperature and pressure 4. gases mix completely with other gases 5. much less dense then solids or liquids |
| pressure | P |
| volume | V |
| temperature | T |
| number of moles | n |
| gas constant | R |
| Boltzmann's constant | k - 1.381x10^-23 |
| Dalton's: partial pressure | P |
| Dalton's: total pressure | P (sub) tot |
| Dalton's: moles of component A | n (sub) a |
| Dalton's: moles | n |
| Dalton's: total moles | n (sub) tot |
| Dalton's: speed (rate) | u (sub) rms |
| Dalton's: attractive forces | a |
| Dalton's: molecule size | b |
| Maxwell-Blotzmann Distrtribution | a distribution of molecular speeds; depends on the absolute temperature of the gas; as temperature increases, the distribution broadens, and the maximum shifts to higher speeds |
| 3 different speeds | average speed, root mean square speed, and most probable speed |
| average speed | the average of the speeds of all the molecules |
| root mean square speed | the speed of a molecule that has the average kinetic energy |
| most probable speed | the speed of the largest number of molecules and the maximum in the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution |
| pressure | force per unit area |
| atmospheric pressure | exerted due to gravity acting on air above Earth's surface |
| Boyle's Law | the volume of a sample of gas at a constant temperature is inversely proportional to its pressure |
| Charle's Law | the volume occupied by a sample of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature |
| Avogardro's Law | equal volume of any two gasses at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of moles; volume = moles at a constant temp and pressure |
| molar volume | the volume occupied by one mole of gas at a particular temperature or pressure |
| Combined Gas Law | combines all gas laws into one formula |
| Ideal Gas Law | pressure, universal gas constant, volume, moles, temperature; PV=nRT; most gasses obey the ideal gas law; deviations occur at severe temp decreases and pressures increases |
| universal gas constant | value of the universal gas constant depends on the units; volume and pressure |
| standard temperature and pressure (STP) | P=1 atm; T=0C |
| molar volume | for one mol of an ideal gas at STP |
| densities of gasses | can be calculated from molar mass (M) and molar volume (V/n); depends on molar masses & temperature; density decreases as temp increases |
| gas mixtures | in a mixture of gasses, each gas behaves independently of each other; exerts a pressure as if it were the only gas there; equals to the partial pressure of the gas combination |
| Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure | the pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is the partial pressure pf that gas; the sum of partial pressures = the total pressure; individual partial pressures obey the ideal gas law |
| mole fraction | the fraction of the molecules of that component of the mixture |
| thermal pollution | the decrease in solubility as temp increases due to factories or power plants; solubility increases as pressure increases; solubility decreases as temperature increases |
| Henry's Law | the higher partial pressure of the gas above a liquid, the more soluable |
| diffusion | the process by which molecules of one substance spread out through a medium to occupy a space uniformly; depend upon the speed at which the molecules are moving |
| effusion | the process by which molecules of a gas flow through a small hole in a container; depends upon the speed at which the molecules are moving |
| Graham's Law | under conditions of constant temp and pressure, the rates of diffusion and effusion of a gas are inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight; compares to different gasses at constant temp and pressure |
| real gasses | as pressure increases, and/or temperature decreases; deviations from ideal gas behavior |
| Van Der Waals Equation | resembles the ideal gas equation, but includes a pressure correction to account for the IMFs between molecules and a volume correction to account for the volume of individual molecules; a and b constants; constants are larger in molecules with larger IMFs |
