Tiny, constantAccording to the kinetic theory, all matter consists of ______ particles that are in ________ motion.
molecules, atomsAccording to the kinetic theory, the particles in a gas are usually ___________ or _______
rapid, constant, randomThe motion of the particles in a gas is _______, ________ and ___________.
shape, volumeGases fill their containers regardless of the __________ and ___________ of the containers
straight-lineThe particles of a gas travel in a ________________ path until they collided with another particle, another object or walls of the container.
empty spaceBetween particles of a gas there is _________ _______.
independentThe motion of one particle in a gas is _______________ of the motion of all the other particles.
random walkThe aimless path the molecules take in a gas is called a _________ _________.
elasticAll collisions between particles in a gas are perfectly _____________.
kinetic energy, lossDuring an elastic collision, _______________ is transferred without ______ from one particle to another.
gas pressureResults from the force exerted by a gas per unit surface area of an object.
simultaneous collisionsGas pressure is the result of ______________________________ of billions of rapidly moving particles in a gas with an object.
vacuumAn empty space with no particles and no pressure is called....
atmospheric pressureresults from the collisions of atoms and molecules in air with objects.
decreasesAtmospheric pressure ________ as you climb a mountain.
decreases, increasesThe density of Earth's atmosphere _________ as the elevation __________
barometerUsed to measure atmospheric pressure.
pascalThe SI unit of pressure
kilopascalsThe reason why we use ______________ is because normal atmospheric pressure is 100,000 pascals.
standard atmosphereThe pressure required to support 760mm of Hg at 25 degrees Celsius
760mm Hg, 101.3kPa1 atm = ________ = ________
absolute zeroTemperature at which the motion of particles theoretically ceases.
no attractions, attractedAccording to the kinetic theory, there are _________________ between particles of a gas, but the particles of a liquid are _____________ attracted to each other.
intermolecular attractionsReduce the amount of space between the particles in a liquid.
hardly, volumeIncreasing the pressure on a liquid has ________ any effect on its _______
vaporizationThe conversion of a liquid to a gas or vapor
evaporationWhen a liquid converts to a gas without boiling.
evaporation, minimumDuring ______, only those molecules with a certain _________ kinetic energy can escape from the surface of the liquid.
increasesA liquid evaporates faster because heating ________ the average kinetic energy of its particles.
coolingEvaporation is a _____________ process
highest, firstAs evaporation occurs particles with the _____________ energy tend to leave __________
decreasesAs a liquid evaporates it's average temperaure ________________
vapor pressuremeasure of the force exerted by a gas above a liquid.
vaporizeWhen a partially filled container of liquid is sealed, some of the particles at the surface of the liquid _____________
some particles condense and return to a liquid formWhy doesn't a sealed container of liquid completely evaporate?
boiling pointThe temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquidis just equal to the external pressure on the liquid.
