Know and use the relationship for pressure difference: pressure difference = height x density x gravitational field strength, p = heg. Explain how molecules in a gas have random motion and that they exert a force and hence a pressure on the walls of a container. Understand why there is an absolute zero temperature which is -273 °C, Describe the Kelvin scale of temperature and be able to convert between the Kelvin and Celsius scales. Understand why an increase in temperature results in an increase in the average speed of gas molecules. Know that the Kelvin temperature of a gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy of its molecules. Explain, for a find amount of gas, the qualitative relationship between: pressure and volume at constant temperature, pressure and Kelvin temperature at constant volume.
