States of Matter & Gas Laws

Gas Density

The mass of a gas per unit volume, which for a gas depends strongly on temperature, pressure and molar mass.

ρ = pM / RT g/L
States of Matter & Gas Laws

Gaseous State

The state of matter in which particles are widely separated and move randomly at high speed, filling any container completely.

pV = nRT Dimensionless

Gay-Lussac's Pressure Law

At constant volume, the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

p₁ / T₁ = p₂ / T₂ Pa/K

Graham's Law of Diffusion

The rate at which a gas diffuses or effuses is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass.

r₁ / r₂ = √(M₂ / M₁) Dimensionless
