What type of unit are the following: atm, torr, mmHg, Pa, kPa? (any of these may appear on the test)

Pressure

300

What is deposition?

The phase change from gas to solid.

300

Explain the difference between effusion and diffusion.

Effusion - The movement of a gas through a small hole within a container.

Diffusion - The spreading of particles from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.

400

What temperature unit should you convert to prior to doing a gas law calculation?

K (Kelvin)

400

What is temperature?

The average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.

500

What is 8.14 kPa in Pa?

8,140 Pa

500

What is thermal energy?

The total kinetic energy of particles in a substance.

500

A liter of gas is at 2 atm at 143 K. The volume expands to 3 L, and pressure decreases to 1.8 atm. What is the final temperature?

386.1 K

500

-419.8 oF

500

A container made of latex is heated. As the container is heated, more particles are added to the container. Can we accurately determine the effect of the temperature increase on the internal pressure? Why or Why not?

No. Latex is flexible, so the volume will increase as it heats up. Also, adding particles will have an effect on internal pressure. Due to these confounding factors, we cannot draw accurate conclusions about the effect of heat on this container's internal pressure.
