| 5243268941 | Gas Pressure | the force that a gas exerts on the walls of its container. | 0 | |
| 5243274129 | Boyle's Law | If the number of moles of a gas and temperature are held constant, the pressure and volume of an ideal gas have an inverse relationship. PV = k and P1V1 = P2V2 (Units of volume and pressure must be the same, k is a proportionality constant.) | 1 | |
| 5243286444 | Charles's Law | If the number of moles of a gas and pressure are held constant, the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to temperature. V/T = b and V1/T1 = V2/T2 (Temp in Kelvin, b is a proportionality constant.) | 2 | |
| 5243298571 | Avogadro's Law | At constant temperature and and pressure, the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas. V/n = a and V1/n1 = V2/n2 (n is equal to the number of moles, a is a proportionality constant.) | 3 | |
| 5243310845 | Universal gas constant | 0.08206 (L*atm)/(K*mol) The gas constant will change based on the unit of pressure. | 4 | |
| 5243315714 | Ideal Gas Law | PV = nRT An equation of state for a gas at a given period of time. This is a limiting law, as it is not always true for all gases. | 5 | |
| 5243319259 | Ideal Gas | A gas that follows the ideal gas law. An ideal gas is a hypothetical substance. Real gases behave "ideally" at low pressures (below 1 atm) and high temperatures. | 6 | |
| 5243331976 | Molar Volume of an Ideal Gas | 22.4L | 7 | |
| 5243335197 | STP | Standard Temperature and pressure, 1atm and 0C | 8 | |
| 5243337841 | Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure | For a mixture of gases in a container, the total pressure exerted is the sum of the pressure that each gas would exert if it were alone. Total Pressure = P1 + P2 + P3 + ....Pn | 9 | |
| 5243340625 | Partial Pressure | The pressure that a particular gas would exert if it were alone in the container. | 10 | |
| 5243345506 | Mole Fraction | The ratio of the number of moles of a given component in a mixture to the total number of moles in the mixture. | 11 | |
| 5243350567 | Kinetic Molecular Theory | A simple model that attempts to explain the properties of an ideal gas. | 12 | |
| 5243352482 | Diffusion | term used to describe the mixing of gases | 13 | |
| 5243355100 | Graham's Law of Effusion | (Rate of Effusion for gas 1)/(Rate of effusion for gas 2) = (Square root of the molar mass of gas 2)/(Square root of the molar mass of gas 2) | 14 | |
| 5243360212 | Effusion | term used to describe the passage of gas through a tiny orifice into an evacuated chamber. | 15 | |
| 5243364373 | Real gas | A gas that does not follow the ideal gas law. | 16 |

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
