Properties of Gases and Gas Laws

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Definition of a gas   A gas is a substance that has no fixed shape or volume and diffuses to fill any container in which it is placed.  
🗑
Temperature used when measuring gases   Kelvin  
🗑
Brownian Motion   Random movement of particles in a gas  
🗑
Pressure of a gas (definition)   The pressure of a gas is the force it exerts per unit area.  
🗑
Units used to measure the pressure of a gas   N/m>2 or the pascal  
🗑
Atmospheric pressure in Pascals   1x10>5 or 100,000Pa or 100kPa  
🗑
Units for measuring the volume of a gas   metres cubed  
🗑
How to convert cm cubed into meters cubed   divide by 1,000,000  
🗑
STP   At STP 1 mole of ANY gas will occupy 22.4L  
🗑
Measurements for STP   Standard Temperature: 273K, 0 celcius. Standard Pressure: 1x10>5Pa/100kPa/1atm  
🗑
Boyle's Law   Boyle's Law states that at a constant temperature the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.  
🗑
Relationship between Pressure and 1/Volume   Directly proportional  
🗑
Mathematical conclusion from Boyle's Law   pressure x volume = k  
🗑
Charles Law   Charles' Law states that at a constant pressure the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature on the Kelvin scale  
🗑
Mathematical conclusion from Charles' Law   Volume/Temperature = k  
🗑
Guy Lussacs' Law of Combining VOlumes   Gases react in small whole number ratios provided that their volumes are measured at the same temperature and pressure  
🗑
Avogadro's Law   This states that equal volumes of gases contain equal numbers of molecules, under the same temperature and pressure  
🗑
4 rules of Kinetic Gas Theory   1: Particles of a gas are in continuous random motion. 2: There is no attractive or repulsive forces between these molecules 3: There is no difference between the volume of a gas and the container it is in. 4: The collisions are perfectly elastic.  
🗑
Ideal Gas   An ideal gas is a gas that obeys all the assumptions of kinetic theory and all the gas laws at every temperature and pressure.  
🗑
Real Gases behave like Ideal Gases when:   Low pressure as the molecules are far apart. High temperature as the molecules are moving rapidly.  
🗑
Real Gases differ from Ideal gases when:   High pressure as the molecules are pushed close together. Low temperature as they begin to condense into liquids Most gases do exhibit some form of attractive of repulsive forces  
🗑
Ideal Gas Equation   Pv=nRT  
🗑
Volume of gases in the ideal gas equation   meters cubed  
🗑
Universal Gas Constant   8.31  
🗑
