Chem 141 Exam

Easily compressed, or squeezed into a smaller volume.

• Solid

• Liquids

• Gases

Measure of how much the volume of matter decreases under pressure.

• Compressibility

• Conductivity

• Molarity

Kinetic theory can explain why gases are compressed more easily than liquids or solids.

• True

• False

Gases are easily compressed because of .......................................

• the size of its particles.

• the space between the particles in a gas.

• the mass of the particles.

Factors that affect gas pressure.

• The amount of gas.

• The volume.

• The temperature.

• The mass

You can't use kinetic theory to predict and explain how gases will respond to a change of conditions.

• True

• False

If you inflate an air raft the pressure inside the raft will increase.

• True

• False

If the pressure of the gas in a sealed container is lower than the outside air pressure, air will rush into the container when the container is opened.

• True

• False

When the pressure of a gas in a sealed container is higher than the outside air pressure, the gas will flow out of the container when the container is unsealed.

• True

• False

You can raise the pressure exerted by a contained gas by ................... its volume.

• reducing

• increasing
