Chemistry Unit 5
Unit 5: Gas Laws + Stoichiometry 2
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Kinetic Energy | Energy in motion |
| Temperature | A measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance |
| Absolute Zero | The temperature at which particles have zero kinetic energy |
| Thermal Energy | The sum kinetic energy of a sample of matter (more partial motion if there is more energy added) |
| Heat | An energy transfer due to a temperature difference (heat always transfers from high to low temperature) |
| Pressure | Force per unit area |
| Gas Pressure | Depends on the number of collisions between gas molecules and the walls of their container |
| Atmosphere | atm |
| Boyle's Gas Law | Volume and pressure are inversely proportional at constant temperature (P1V1=P2V2) |
| Charles' Gas Law | Volume and absolute temperature are directly proportional at constant pressure (V1/T1=V2/T2, must be measured in Kelvin) |
| The Ideal Gas Law | PV=nRT |
| Avogadro's Law | The volume of any gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas (at constant temp. and pressure) (V1/n1=V2/n2) |
| P | Pressure (atm) of gas |
| V | Volume of container (liters) |
| n | Moles (mol) of gas |
| R | Universal gas law constant (0.0821 L x atm/mol x K) |
| T | Temperature (Kelvin) of gas |
| Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) | P = 1 atm, T = 273.15 |
| Moles | Mass/molar mass, m/Mr=n, Mr=mRT/PV |
| Density | mass/volume, d=m/v, d=Mr x P/RT |
| Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) | Gases consist of tiny particles in constant, random motion |
| SI Unit | Pa (Pascal) - measured with barometer |
| Directly Proportional | both quantities increase together |
| Inversely Proportional | one quantity increases, while the other decreases |
| Fahrenheit | T°F = T°C x (9/5) + 32 |
| Kelvin | TK = T°C + 273.15 |
