1
Avogadros law
According to ________, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its molar amount at a constant pressure and temperature.
New cards
2
metal crystal
When a(n) ________ receives a sharp blow, no spatially oriented bonds are broken; instead, the electron sea simply adjusts to the new distribution of cations.
New cards
3
Metallic solids
________, such as silver or iron, can be viewed as vast three- dimensional arrays of metal cations immersed in a sea of electrons that are free to move about.
New cards
4
Molecules
________ on the surface are less stable because they feel fewer attractive forces, so the liquid acts to minimize their number by minimizing surface area.
New cards
5
Charles's law
________: The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its kelvin temperature for a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure.
New cards
6
Gay Lussac's law
________: The pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature for a fixed amount of gas at a constant volume.
New cards
7
Amorphous solid
________ is a solid whose particles do not have an orderly arrangement.
New cards
8
composition of air
The ________ does not change appreciably with altitude, but the total pressure decreases rapidly.
New cards
9
→Boyles law
The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure for a fixed amount of gas at a constant temperature
New cards
10
→Charless law
The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its kelvin temperature for a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure
New cards
11
→Gay-Lussacs law
The pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature for a fixed amount of gas at a constant volume
New cards
12
Standard temperature and pressure (STP)
0 °C (273.15 K); 1 atm (760 mmHg)
New cards
13
Standard molar volume
Volume of one mole of any ideal gas at STP, 22.4 L> mol
New cards
14
Normal boiling point
The boiling point at a pressure of exactly 1 atm
New cards
15
Heat of fusion
The quantity of heat required to completely melt 1 g of a substance once it has reached its melting point
New cards
16
Heat of vaporization
The quantity of heat needed to completely vaporize 1 g of a liquid once it has reached its boiling point
New cards
17
surface tension
caused by the different forces experienced by molecules in the interior of a liquid and those on the surface
New cards
18
crystalline solids
solid whose atoms, molecules, or ions are rigidly held in an ordered arrangement.
New cards
19
covalent network solids
whose atoms are linked together by covalent bonds into a giant three-dimensional array
New cards
20
amorphous solids
solid whose particles do not have an orderly arrangement.
