Front

What is a characteristic of gases?

Back

Gases have no definite shape or volume.

Front

Define Boyle's Law.

Back

At constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

Front

What is the formula for Charles's Law?

Back

V1/T1 = V2/T2.

Front

What is the relationship between pressure and volume in Boyle's Law?

Back

As volume increases, pressure decreases, and vice versa.

Front

What is the ideal gas law equation?

Back

PV = nRT.

Front

What does 'n' represent in the ideal gas law?

Back

The number of moles of the gas.
