answer
constant that relates pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of gas in the ideal gas law. |
question

answer
the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases in the mixture. |
question
PARTIAL PRESSURE |
answer
the pressure an individual gas of a mixture would exert if it were in a container alone at the same temperature as the mixture. |
question
GRAHAM'S LAW |
answer
relates rates of effusion or diffussion of two gasses to the masses of the molecules of the two gasses. |
question
EFFUSION |
answer
process in which a gas escapes from a container through a small hole. |
question

answer
process that causes gases to spontaneously intermingle when they are brought together. |
question

answer
a change from liquid to gas state at temperatures below the boiling point. |
question
EVAPORATION AND VAPORIZATION |
answer
are endothermic reactions that are the result of molecules leaving the surface of the liquid. |
question
CONDENSATION |
answer
is an exothermic process in which gas or vapor is changed into a liquid or solid state. |
question
EQUILIBRIUM |
answer
occurs when there are equal rates of evaporation and condensation resulting in the number of molecules in the vapor state remaining constant. |
question
VAPOR PRESSURE |
answer
is the pressure exerted by vapor that is in equilibrium with its liquid. |
question
BOILING POINT |
answer
temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the prevailing atmospheric pressure resulting in a change to a gas state. |
question

answer
is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to 1 standard atm (760 torr). At higher elevations where atmos[heric presure is lower, the boiling point is also _______. |
question
SUBLIMATION |
answer
endothermic process in which a solid is changed directly into a gas without first becoming a liquid. |
