Physical Characteristics of Gases

AB
Absolute ZeroTemperature when everything stops moving -273.15C.
Atmosphere of Pressure (atm)Average sea level pressure.
BarometerTool used to measure atmospheric pressure.
Boyle’s LawVolume and pressure are inversely proportional.
Charles’s LawVolume of a fixed mass of gas varies directly with the temperature in Kelvin.
Combined Gas LawExpresses the difference between pressure, volume, and temperature of a fixed amount of gas.
Dalton’s Law of Partial PressureThe total pressure exerted by a mixture of gasses is the sum of all the partial pressures.
DiffusionThe movement of materials from higher concentration to lower concentration.
EffusionThe movement of gas particles between two containers through a small opening.
Elastic CollisionA collision when there is no loss in energy
FluidsHaving the ability to flow and fill a given volume.
Gas LawsThe mathematical relationship between the volume, temperature, pressure, and quantity of a gas.
Gay-Lussac’s LawPressure and temperature of a given amount of gas are directly proportional.
Ideal GasAn imaginary gas that behaves perfectly according to the Kinetic Theory.
Kinetic TheoryObjects are always in motion and these motions can have consequences.
Millimeters of Mercury (mm Hg)Common unit of pressure.
NewtonSI unit of force, kilogram by meter per second squared.
Partial PressureThe pressure exerted by each of the gasses in a mixture.
PascalSI unit for pressure with the force of one Newton per meter squared.
PressureForce per unit area.
Real GasDoesn’t behave completely according to the assumptions of the kinetic theory.
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP)Is the conditions where there is 1 atm of gas at 0C.
TorrMeasure of pressure named to honor Torricelli.
