Study Notes

  • The study notes cover the particulate nature of matter, specifically focusing on gas laws.

Boyle's Law

  • Objectives include analyzing the relationship between pressure and volume and applying concepts to solve problems related to the law.
  • Application examples are syringes, breathing, and diving.
  • Pressure: Force per unit area.
  • P = F/A, where A is the area on which the force acts.
  • The unit of pressure is N/m² or pascal (Pa).
  • The gas pressure comes from the force of the gas molecules colliding with the walls of the container.
  • The pressure of a gas depends on the number of gas particles, container volume, and absolute temperature.
  • Decreasing the volume of a container causes gas molecules to strike the walls more often, increasing pressure.
  • For a given mass of gas, pressure (P) is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature is constant.
  • P ∝ 1/V
  • PV = constant
  • P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Charles's Law

  • Objectives: analyze the relationship between volume and temperature, and applying concepts to solve problems related to Charles's law.
  • Real-life applications of Charles's Law include hot air balloons, baking/cooking, and combustion processes in car engines.
  • Absolute temperature is measured using the kelvin scale.
  • Temperature in kelvin = Temperature in °C + 273 (Example: 25 °C = 25 + 273 = 298 K)
  • The volume (V) of a fixed mass of a gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to absolute temperature (T).
  • V ∝ T
  • V/T = constant
  • V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
  • An ideal gas obeys gas laws at all temperatures and pressures.

Avogadro's Law

  • The quantity of gas (in mol) at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas.
  • n ∝ V
  • V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

Ideal Gas Equation

  • PV = nRT
