A | B |
gas particle arrangement | lots of empty space |
temperature | a measure of how fast particles move |
fast particle motion | high temperatures |
slow particle motion | low temperatures |
a hot day | particles expand & push harder |
a cold day | particles contract & don't push as hard |
volume | the amount of space an object takes up |
gas volume | matches its container |
compressing gas/liquids | can compress gases, but NOT liquids |
pressure | the amount of force/push on an area |
particles under pressure | high pressure means more collisions |
gases flow from _ to _ | high to low |
Boyle's Law | pressure and volume change in opposite ways |
Charles's Law | temperature and volume change in the same way |
temperature & pressure | temperature and pressure change in the same way |
Boyle's Law examples | basketball/tin can get smaller in air chamber |
Charles's Law examples | basketballs/balloons get smaller on a cold day |
temperature & pressure examples | truck tires blowing out in the summer |
