3. What are the 5 main points of kinetic-molecular theory?


a. Gas has particles spread apart consistently to their size.
b. Gas moves the same way, but randomly throughout the area.
c. Elastic collision- colliding with the container or other particles.
d. Gas particles are not attracted or repelled by each other.
e. Kinetic energy affect the temperature of gas particles.
4. Think of the definition of the word “fluid”, Explain why both gases and liquids can be described
as fluids.
a. They both take the form of whatever container they are in.
5. What is the standard temperature, numerical value?
a. 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
6. What is absolute zero?
a. A theoretical value which says that there is no motion.

7. Conversion exercises: Convert the following to Celsius or Kelvins:

• Convert Celsius to Kelvins using this formula: K = C + 273


• Convert Kelvins to Celsius using the formula: C = K - 273
a. 0⁰ Celsius to Kelvin
a. 273
b. 32⁰ Celsius to Kelvin
a. 305
c. 85 kelvins to ⁰Celsius
a. -188
d. 212 kelvins to ⁰Celsius
a. -61
8. What is the relationship between energy and temperature?
a. Energy increases as temperature increases

9. What are the different units of pressure?


a. Pascal (Pa)
b. Standard atmosphere (atm)
c. Millimeter of Mercury (mmHg)
d. Psi
e. The bar
10. What are the numerical value for standard pressure?
a. 101.325 kilopascals
11. Convert the following pressures: https://youtu.be/qv81QCGNnVo?si=GghVVFX6gbBXthJl
a. Convert 568 mmHg to atm
a. 0.747369 atm
b. Convert 670 kPa to mmHg
a. 5025.41 mmHg
c. Convert 5.5 atm to kPa
a. 557.288 kPa
12. What is the formula used to calculate pressure?
a. P=F/A
13. If the area, which force is applied, is increased what happens to the pressure? Why?
a. The pressure increases because it has to hold the load.
14. If the area, which force is applied, is decreased what happens to the pressure? Why?
a. The pressure decreases because it is spread out evenly.
15. What is the difference between internal pressure and external pressure?
a. The air inside the area is internal but the air outside putting pressure on the outside of
the area is external.
16. What is another name for internal and external pressure?
a. Pressure by vapor.
17. Does a pot of water boil quicker or slower if you place the lid on the pot and DO NOT increase the
heat? Why?
a. Faster if you put the lid on because there is higher pressure and as pressure increases so
does temperature. Theres nowhere for the hot air to go.
