Talk:General Chemistry/Behaviour of Gases

Evaporation of liquids = Occurs when kinetic energy in a substance is unequal and it is unevenly distributed across a liquid, causing molecules to move faster and slower than each other. Then ultimately leading to evaporation of the liquid into a gas because the atoms are breaking away. Another way evaporation can occur is through temperature. When Liquid faces a large amount of heat pressure it can begin to evaporate into gas, because their vapor from being boiled is equal to the atmospheric pressure. Volatile is a characteristic some liquids have, which means they evaporate more easily.

Motion of gas particles = This is the motion of gas particles, the motion is very random, the particles can even collide with each other. Gas particles move very fast because they have high kinetic energy, plus they are not bonded to a substance like a solid.

diffusion and effusion = effusion is the relationship gas has for escaping from a container if a hole is present. Diffusion is when gasses mix together and or spread.

Dalton's law of partial pressures = is a equation that can be solved to figure out the pressure that's being exerted by said gas. Also the pressure equals its own components.
