Model that attempts to explain the behavior of gases

Measure of the kinetic energy of molecules

Showed that volume of
a gas increases with the
Kelvin temperature of a gas

joining of atoms by a strong attractive force creating a substance

3 bonds; no lone pairs on central atom

force per unit area

Energy due to motion

Found that when the pressure was
doubled, the volume was halved

Ions held together by electrostatic

the three-dimensional shape of a molecule

higher elevation, there is less air pushing down on the earth’s surface

Freezing pt of water= 0°C
Boiling pt of water = 100°C

The total pressure is equal to the sum of the partial pressures

Electrons are shared unequally between atoms in a bond

Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion

device that measures atmospheric pressure

°C to K: Add 273
K to °C: Subtract 273

Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3

Electrons are shared between atoms

3 shared pairs, 1 lone pair on central atom

760 mm Hg
1 atm
101.325 kPa

-273

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Electrons are shared equally between atoms in a bond

Molecules which are asymmetrical
