·         
5.19 use the relationship between the pressure and volume of a fixed mass of gas at constant temperature:

                 p1V1 = p2V2

p1 = Pressure at the beginning [kPa, bar or atm]
V1 = Volume at the beginning [m3 or cm3]
p2 = Pressure at the end [kPa, bar or atm]
V2 = Volume at the end [m3 or cm3]

(Note: can use any units for V and p as long as they are the same at the beginning and end)

·         Use particle theory to explain why the gas in the balloon contracts

  

Explanation

·         The temperature of the gas inside the balloon decreases so the average speed of the particles decreases
·         Consequently the gas particles collide with the walls of the balloon with less force and less collisions per second
·         Because the walls of the container are flexible, the  volume decreases

Conclusion

·         Volume is directly proportional to absolute (Kelvin) temperature
·         (gas is at constant pressure - flexible container)
·         V α T

Instructions

·         Keep the Pressure constant (flexible container)
·         Pump some gas particles in
·         Predict what will happen when you heat the gas.  Try it.
·         Predict what will happen when you cool the gas.  Try it.

 

Question

·         What would happen to the volume of the container if you could cool the gas to absolute zero, 0K?

· You're looking at smoke particles in air under a microscope
· They appear to be jiggling about
· Why?


· (Don't worry if you can't work this out straight away - Albert Einstein was the bloke who eventually explained what's happening here!)

5.11


· 5.11 understand the significance of Brownian motion

Model 3
· What do the "smoke" particles look like?
· Why are they moving?
· What do the "air" particles look like?

5.11 explained


Model 1
· What does the red puck represent?
o The large, visible smoke particle
· What do the metal balls represent?
o The small, not visible air particles

Model 2
· What do the small red particles represent?
o The small, not visible air particles
· What does the large blue particle represent?
o The large, visible smoke particle
· What does the view on the left of the screen represent?
o The view through the microscope lense
· Why can‘t you see the red particles in this view?
o They are too small to see

Model 3
· What do the "smoke" particles look like?
o They are the 5 large, sand coloured particles
· Why are they moving?
o Small, fast moving air particles are colliding with the smoke particles and making them move
· What do the "air" particles look like?
o They are the numerous, small, white particles

5.11 Questions


1. Draw the path of a smoke particle in air (3 marks)
2. Explain what is meant by Brownian Motion of smoke particles in air and how it provides evidence for air particles (4 marks)
3. What change would you expect to see in the movement of the smoke particles if the air was cooled down? Why? (2 marks)

Questions
· Why does the needle on the meter move when gas particles are introduced into the box?
· What does the meter measure?

Answers
· The gas particles collide with all of the walls of the container. The wall on the right moves outwards and moves the needle.
· Pressure. The gas particles colliding with the walls makes a force on the walls. The walls have a surface area so the quantity measured is pressure, p=F/A.

5.12+5.15 Questions

02 November 2011

15:55
· 5.12 recall that molecules in a gas have a random motion and that they exert a force and hence a pressure on the walls of the container
· 5.15 understand that an increase in temperature results in an increase in the speed of gas molecules

Try the animation http://www.lon-capa.org/~mmp/kap10/cd283.htm
1. How do the particles create a pressure?
2. If you increase the temperature, how does the movement of the particles change?
3. If you increase the temperature, how does the number of collisions per second change?
4. If you increase the temperature, what does this do to the pressure?
