Boyle's law, Charles's law, Amonton's law, Avogadro's law, and the ideal gas law
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the four variables that are used to describe a gas on the macroscopic level? | Pressure (P), Volume (V), Temperature (T), Amount of Gas (n). PV=nRT |
| (Boyle's law) What is the relationship between volume and pressure? | Volume and pressure share an inversely proportional relationship. if the temperature and amount of gas remain constant, when the volume of a gas increases, its pressure decreases, and vice versa. |
| Boyle's law equation? | P1xV1=P2xV2. while P1 and V1 are the initial volume and pressure, P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume. |
| (Charles law) What is the relationship between volume and temperature? | Volume and temperature share a direct relationship. as the temperature of a gas increases, so does its volume, and vice versa. |
| Charles law equation? | (V1/T1) =(V2/T2) V1 and T1 are the initial volume and temperature, and V2 and T2 are the final volume and temperature |
| (Amonton's law) What is the relationship between pressure and temperature? | direct relationship between pressure and temperature. As the temperature of a gas increases, its pressure also increases |
| Amonton's law equation? | also known as Gay-Lussac’s Law. (P1/T1) = (P2/T2) where P1 and T1 are the initial temperature and pressure, and P2 and T2 are the final pressure and temperature. |
| Describe a pressure thermometer | A pressure thermometer is a type of thermometer that measures temperature by observing the pressure changes in a contained gas |
| (Avogadro's Law) What is the relationship between volume and amount? | the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas (n). if you increase the number of moles of gas, the volume increases proportionally |
| Avogadro's law equation? | (V1/n1) = (V2/n2) V is the volume of gas and n is the number of moles of gas |
| According to Avogadro’s law, what happens to the volume of a gas when the amount of gas is decreased? | the volume of the gas will also decrease proportionally. |
| According to Charles’ law, what happens to the volume of a sample of gas when its temperature is increased? | its volume increases proportionally. |
| According to Amontons’ law, what happens to the pressure of a sample of gas when its temperature is decreased? | the pressure of the gas decreases proportionally. |
| According to Boyle’s law what happens to the pressure of a sample of gas when its volume is increased? | the pressure of the gas decreases. |
| Starting from Boyle’s law, Avogadro’s law, and Charles’s law, derive the ideal gas law | PV=nRT |
| ideal gas constant | R= 0.08206 (L x atm)/(mol x K) L= liters, K= kelvin |
| What are the properties of an ideal gas? | The size of each gas particle is negligibly small. Collisions between gas particles or the gas particles and the container wall are perfectly elastic, meaning no kinetic energy is lost |
| When are real gases most ideal? | behave ideally at low pressures and high temperatures |
| There are two general types of gas law problems, what are they? | Problems where three variables are known and no change in condition occurs. a change in one of the variables causes a change in one or more of the others. The ideal gas law simplifies to one of the simple gas laws or can result in the combined gas law |
| what is the combined gas law? | (P1V1/n1T1) = (P2V2/n2T2) |
