100
The amount of space that a gas occupies.
What is volume
100

This gas law states that pressure and volume are inversely related.

What is Boyle's Law

100

If you are solving an ideal gas problem with a pressure given in kPa, you should use this value for R.

What is 8.31

100

Gas laws must always use temperatures in Kelvin because, unlike Celsius temperatures, Kelvin temperatures can never be __________.

What is negative?

100

These are the 3 common units for pressure when computing gas equations.

What are kPa, atm, and torr?

200

This unit represents a very large number of particles; 6.02 x 10^23.

What is a mole?

200

It's the gas law you would use if you were given 2 volumes and 1 temperature, and asked to calculate a second temperature.

What is Charles' Law

200

50˚C is equivalent to this temperature in Kelvin.

What is 323 K

200

2 atm is equivalent to this pressure in kilopascals.

What is 202.6 kPa

200

Two major differences between a gas and a solid are that a gas can change its ____________ and __________.

What are size (volume) and shape?

300
average kinetic energy of the molecules is directly propotional to this
what is temperature
300

This gas law assumes that the volume of a container is held constant.

What is Gay-Lussac's Law

300

A 20L container holds gas at 3 atm. If the gas is compressed down to 10L, The new pressure will be

What is 6 atm

300

This many moles of gas would take up 10L at 400 torr and 400 K.

What is 0.16 mol?

300

An "ideal" gas should be small, high temperature, low pressure, and ___________.

What is non-polar?

400
273 Kelvin or 0˚C and 1 atmosphere, 760 mmHg/torr, or 101.3 kPa.
What is STP (standard temperature and pressure)
400

If you are asked to calculate the number of moles, you are going to have to use this gas law.

What is the ideal gas law (PV = nRT)

400

If a container has a pressure of 300 torr at 0˚C, It will have twice as much pressure at this temperature.

What is 273˚C (546 K)?

400

A 1L balloon at 30˚C is cooled to 0˚C. The volume of the balloon is now...

What is 901 mL?

400

The number of particles in a mole is named after this scientist with the initials A.A., who also has a gas law named for him.

Who is (Amadeo) Avogadro?

500

This is the name of the coldest possible temperature, where all molecular motion stops.

What is absolute zero?

500
This gas law tells us that the total amount of particle collisions in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the collisions of each gas in the mixture.

What is Dalton's law of partial pressures?

500

It's the volume of 1.5 mol of gas at STP.

What is 33.6 L?

500

At 30˚C and 1 atm, a gas takes up 25L. If the volume is reduced to 5L and the pressure is increased to 5 atm, the gas would now be at this temperature.

What is 30˚C?

500

If we assume that they are all ideal gases, one mole of this noble gas would have the highest pressure in a 50L container at 80˚C.
