Chemistry: Intermolecular Forces and Gas Laws Quiz

Surface tension is the force acting in the surface of a liquid. It is measured in N/m.

As temperature increases, the speeds and kinetic energy of gas molecules also increase.

Avogadro’s law states that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules.

An ideal gas is a hypothetical gas whose molecules occupy negligible space and have no interactions, following the ideal gas law PV = nRT.

Vapour pressure is the pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases at a given temperature in a closed system.

Critical volume is the volume occupied by one mole of a substance at its critical point.

Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions).

Dipole-dipole forces

Thermal energy is the internal energy present in a system due to its temperature.

Gases have no fixed shape or volume and are highly compressible.

Gay-Lussac’s law states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, provided the volume remains constant.

Avogadro constant is the number of constituent particles (usually atoms or molecules) in one mole of a substance.

Diffusion is the process by which molecules spread from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Effusion is the process by which a gas escapes through a tiny hole into a vacuum.
