Physical Chemistry

States of Matter: Solid, liquid, gas. Density increases in the order: Gas < Liquid < Solid. Water (H₂O) is an example, existing as solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (steam).
Gases: Characterized by:
- Taking the shape of their container.
- Mixing uniformly.
- Being easily compressed.
- Having a lower density compared to liquids and solids.
Pressure: Force per unit area exerted by a gas on the walls of its container.
Units of Pressure:
- 760 mmHg = 1 atm (standard atmospheric pressure).
Measuring Pressure: Use barometers and manometers.

Gas Laws

Boyle's Law: At constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure (P₁V₁ = P₂V₂).
Charles' Law: At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂).
Combined Gas Law: Combines Boyle's and Charles' laws, relating pressure, volume, and temperature in a gas (P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂).
Avogadro's Law: Equal volumes of different gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules.
Ideal Gas Law: Relates pressure (P), volume (V), number of moles (n), and absolute temperature (T) of a gas (PV = nRT) where R is the ideal gas constant.

Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures

The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases in the mixture. (P_total = P_A + P_B + ...).
