Gas Laws
Boyles
Pressure and volume have an inverse relationship (when one doubles, the other halves)
Charles
Volume and temperature have a direct relationship; when you heat a gas, it expands (cool gas = contracts)
Gay Lussac
Pressure and Temperature have a direct relationship; when you increase one, the other also increases (increase the pressure and the temperature will rise)
Combined
A combination of all laws above. With five known variables, it is possible to fine the missing one.
Ideal gas law
R is a constant being 8.314
Using three given variables, it is possible to find the fourth.
Avogadro’s
at a specific pressure and temperature, the same amount of moles will always be in the same amount of liters
Law of combining volumes
Gases will always react with each other to form whole number ratios
Ex.
2H2 + (1)O2 → 2H2O
2mol H2 + 1mol O2 → 2mol H2O
2mL H2 + 1mL O2 → 2mL H2O
2 : 1 : 2
You can multiply the ratios:
4ml H2 + 2mL O2 → 4mol H2O [this was x2]
Therefore: the coefficients of an equation can be used to find the ratios of moles or liters.
