GAS LAWS

Front

What is the formula to convert Celsius to Kelvin?

Back

K = °C + 273.15

Front

What is the definition of partial pressure?

Back

Partial pressure is the pressure that a gas in a mixture would exert if it occupied the entire volume alone.

Front

What is the ideal gas law equation?

Back

PV = nRT

Front

What happens to the volume of a gas when the pressure decreases, assuming temperature is constant?

Back

The volume increases (Boyle's Law).

Front

What is Boyle's Law?

Back

Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature.

Front

What is Charles's Law?

Back

Charles's Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy of gas molecules?

Back

As temperature increases, the kinetic energy of gas molecules increases.

Front

What is the definition of gas pressure?

Back

Gas pressure is the force exerted by gas molecules colliding with the walls of a container.

Front

What is Avogadro's Law?

Back

Avogadro's Law states that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain an equal number of molecules.

Front

How do gas molecules behave in a container?

Back

Gas molecules move constantly and randomly, filling the container uniformly.
