Overview

Gases have weak inter-particle attraction and large spaces between particles, so they move freely in all directions and fill the container completely. Their behaviour is described using pressure, volume, and temperature. Boyle’s law, Charles’s law, the gas equation, absolute zero, the Kelvin scale,

Key Concepts

Gas is the state of matter

Gas is the state of matter with weak inter-particle attraction and large inter-particle space allowing free random motion. Gases occupy the entire spa

The pressure of a gas

The pressure of a gas is the force exerted by the gas per unit area on the walls of its container. Gas molecules constantly collide with the walls, an

Boyle’s law states that the volume

Boyle’s law states that the volume of a given mass of a dry gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature. The equation is P_1

Charles’s law states

Charles’s law states that, at constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of a dry gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. The rel

Absolute zero is the temperature at

Absolute zero is the temperature at which molecular motion completely ceases, in theory. It is equal to -273°C. Temperatures lower than -273°C are not
