Gas Laws

Pressure is

• defined as the mass that an object exerts when at rest

• measured in Newtons

• defined as the number of moles of substance divided by the mass of the substance

• defined as the force per unit area

• measured in grams

Boyle's law states that:

• Equal amounts of gases occupy the same volume at constant temperature and pressure.

• The volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

• The volume of a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin at constant pressure.

• The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the simple sum of the partial pressure of all of the gaseous compounds.

• The rates of effusion of gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses.

Charles's law states that:

• Equal amounts of gases occupy the same volume at constant temperature and pressure.

• The volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

• The volume of a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin at constant pressure.

• The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the simple sum of the partial pressure of all of the gaseous compounds.

• The rates of effusion of gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses.
