Properties which depend on the amount of gas either by mass or volume are called extensive properties, while properties that do not depend on the amount of gas are called intensive properties | The resulting statistical analysis of this sample size produces the "average" behavior i |
---|---|
In this flight regime, the gas is no longer behaving ideally | In , the name given to these intermolecular forces is van der Waals force |
He observed that when the pressure was increased in the gas, by adding more mercury to the column, the trapped gas' volume decreased this is known as an relationship.
27This results in greater numbers of collisions with the container per unit time due to the higher particle speeds associated with elevated temperatures | Then the volume of gas was carefully measured as additional mercury was added to the tube |
---|---|
For example, if the volume is halved, the pressure is doubled; and if the volume is doubled, the pressure is halved | A solid can withstand a shearing force due to the strength of these sticky intermolecular forces |
