Pre-Lab Gas Laws

What are ideal gases?

Gases that have the following properties: each particle has negligible volume compared to surroundings, individual particles do not attract or repel each other, particles move randomly in all directions at the same average kinetic energy at constant temperature, and collisions between particles are elastic

What are the three laws?

Avogadro’s Law, Boyle’s Law, and Charles’ Law

What does Avogadro’s Law state?

The volume of a gas is directly proportional to the moles of the gas at a constant temperature and pressure

What does Boyle’s Law state?

The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by that gas when temperature and number of moles remain constant

What does Charles’ Law state?

The volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature of that gas when pressure and number of moles remain constant
