GENERAL CHEMISTRY

Chapter 5 -- Key Concepts

• Use and convert between various units of pressure.

• Understand the relationships among pressure, volume, temperature and moles of and be able to perform calculations using same.

• Understand how the pressure of a gas in a mixture relates to the pressure of the total sample and perform calculations using same.

• Use pressure/volume/temperature information and the ideal gas law in stoichiometric calculations.

• From an understanding of the kinetic-molecular theory of gases, use data on molecular speeds to find molar masses.

• Understand how the behavior of real gases differs from ideal.
