Q1 - L1, 2, 3 passes through an opening that is smaller than the

mean free path of the particles

KINETIC MOLECULAR THEORY and GAS
LAWS ★ velocity is inversely proportional to
mass
PRINCIPAL ASSUMPTIONS OF KMT ★ KE is related to its velocity as
1. Gasses consists of very tiny expressed in the equation.
molecules ★ In the same temp, all glasses have the
2. There is no force of attraction among same K
gas molecules
3. Gas molecules are in a constant,
random, and linear motion.
4. The average KE of gas molecules is
the same for all gasses at the same
temperature, and its value is directly
proportional to the Kelvin
temperature.

★ GRAHAM’S LAW OF EFFUSION

- States that, “at constant pressure
and temperature, molecules or
atoms with lower molecular mass
will effuse faster than the higher
molecular mass molecules or
atoms.”
- Thomas Graham
- Formula:

GRAHAM’S LAW OF EFFUSION &

DIFFUSION

Diffusion occurs
when gas
molecules
disperse
throughout a
container.

Effusion occurs
when a gas
★ Boyle’s Law
- States that pressure increases
when volume decreases, and vice
versa, if the gas temperature is
constant.
- > Pressure, > Volume = Inversely
Proportional
- Temperature - constant
★ Charles’s Law
- States that the volume occupied by
a fixed amount of gas is directly
proportional to its absolute
temperature, if the pressure
remains constant.
- > Temperature, >Velocity = Directly
proportional
- Pressure: constant
★ Gay-Lussac’s law ★ Combined Gas Laws
- The pressure of a gas is directly
proportional to its temperature
while the volume is kept constant.
- > Pressure, >Temperature = Directly
Proportional
- Volume: constant

★ Avogadro’s Law
★ Ideal Gas Law
