WS Introduction to Gases

Holt Chemistry: Chapter 12

  1. How is a gas different from a solid and liquid?
  2. What pieces of equipment are used to measure pressure of a gas?
  3. Give the equivalences of the different units of pressure, including, but not limited to, torrs, atm, kpa.
  4. What is 25.1°C in Kelvin?
  5. What is 285 kelvin in degrees Celsius?
  6. The air pressure for a tire is 109 kPa. What is the pressure in atmospheres?
  7. The air pressure inside a submarine is 0.62 atmospheres. What is this pressure in millimeters of mercury?
  8. The weather news gives the atmospheric pressure as 1.07 atm. What is this pressure in mm Hg?
  9. A bag of potato chips is sealed in a factory near sea level. The atmospheric pressure at the factory is 761.3 mm Hg. What is the pressure inside the bag of potato chips in Pascals? Hint: change to kilopascals, then to pascals. 1000 pascals=1 kpa.
