 S1.5 Ideal Gases

Learning Objectives 

1.5.1: Assumptions of Ideal Gases: Understanding the assumptions behind the ideal gas model, including constant random motion, elastic collisions, negligible volume, absence of intermolecular forces, and the relationship between kinetic energy and temperature.​

​

1.5.2: Real Gases vs Ideal Gases: Distinguishing between the behavior of real and ideal gases, particularly at high pressures and low temperatures, and identifying the conditions under which real gases approximate ideal gas behavior.

​

1.5.3: Molar Volume: Defining molar volume of a gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP),and applying the relationship between volume, amount (in moles), and molar volume.

​

1.5.4: Ideal Gas Laws: Applying gas laws (Boyle’s, Charles’s, Gay-Lussac’s, Combined Gas Law, and Ideal Gas Law) tocalculate pressure, volume, temperature, or amount of gas under varying conditions.
