Chemistry Chapter 13 Vocabulary

Boyle's Law

• States that the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is constant.

Charles's Law

• Describes the direct proportionality between the volume of a fixed amount of gas and its Kelvin temperature at constant pressure.

Gay-Lussac's Law

• Indicates that the pressure of a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature while maintaining constant volume.

Combined Gas Law

• Merges Boyle's, Charles's, and Gay-Lussac's laws to relate pressure, temperature, and volume in a single equation.

Avogadro's Principle

• Asserts that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain an equal number of particles.

Constant Gas

• Refers to the ideal gas constant (R), determined through experiments measuring pressure, temperature, volume, and the number of moles.

Ideal Gas Law

• Formula that describes the behavior of an ideal gas based on pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of gas.

Pascal

• Unit of pressure defined as one newton per square meter (1 N/m²).
