Study Notes
Gas Properties
- The relationship between the volume and pressure of a gas is inverse, meaning that as the volume of a gas increases, its pressure decreases, and vice versa.
Pressure and Temperature
- When the temperature of a gas is increased, its pressure also increases, assuming the volume remains constant.
Compressibility of Gases
- The characteristic property of gases that allows them to be easily compressed is their molecules being widely spaced and free to move, making them highly compressible.
Definition of Pressure
- Pressure is defined as the force per unit area, typically measured in units such as pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
