Properties of Gases
This is the property of a gas that states gases flow much more freely than liquids or solids.
What is viscosity?
This is the mass of the gases in the atmosphere pressing on the surface of the Earth.
This is the SI unit for pressure.
What is Pascal (Pa)?
This is the Boyle's Law equation.
What is: P1V1 = P2V2
This is the gas property that states when pressure is applied, the volume of the gas decreases.
What is compressibility?
This is the atmospheric pressure at sea level, measured in atm.
What is 1 atm?
This is the unit of force.
What is Newton (N)?
This is the relationship between pressure and volume.
What is inversely proportional?
This is the gas property that states that any gas can mix thoroughly with any other gas in any proportion.
What is miscibility?
What is a barometer?
This is the amount of Torr in one atmosphere.
What is 760?
What is the new volume if a 2 L sample at 65 torr is compressed to 250 torr?
0.52 L
What are the four variables described by the physical properties of any gas?
Pressure (P), volume (V), temperature (T), amount (n, number of moles)
This is the attractive force between two molecules.
What is the intermolecular attractive force?
The higher the altitude, the _______ the atmospheric pressure.
What is lower?
This is the amount of millimeters of mercury in one atmosphere.
What is 760 mmHg?
A sample of gas has a volume of 750 mL at a pressure of 85 torr. What pressure will the gas have when the gas is compressed to 350mL, assuming the temperature stays the same?
182 mL
This is another name for a chemical bond.
What is intramolecular forces?
This is when the pressure of a liquid in a pot is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
What is boiling?
This is the amount of Pascal in one bar.
What is 100,000 Pa (100 kPa)?
What minimum pressure in psi would a 450 mL aerosol can have to withstand if it were to contain 4 L of gas measured at 800 torr?
138 psi
