###### In the News (Tue 16 Jul 19)

 Physical constant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Physical constants can take many dimensional forms: the speed of light signifies a maximum speed limit of the universe and is expressed dimensionally as length divided by time; while the fine-structure constant α, which characterizes the interaction between electrons and photons, is dimensionless. Constants that are independent of systems of units are dimensionless numbers known as fundamental physical constants, and are truly meaningful parameters of nature, not merely human constructs. The weak anthropic principle simply states that it's only because these fundamental constants acquired their respective values that there was sufficient order and richness in elemental diversity for life to have formed, which subsequently evolved the necessary intelligence toward observing that these constants have taken on the values they have. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Physical_constant   (571 words)

 Gas constant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The gas constant (also known as the universal or ideal gas constant, usually denoted by symbol R) is a physical constant used in equations of state to relate various groups of state functions to one another. It is another name for the Boltzmann constant, but when used in the ideal gas law it is usually expressed in the more convenient units of energy per Kelvin per mole rather than simply energy per Kelvin per particle. The gas constant occurs in the simplest equation of state, the ideal gas law, as follows: en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Molar_gas_constant   (247 words)

 Forces and Bonding: Molar Volume of a Gas The gaseous phase of matter was the last to be recognized by early scientists because most gases are invisible, and all gases require techniques of collection and handling that are not necessary with the liquid and solid phases of matter. From the measured state properties (pressure, volume, and temperature) of the gas collected, the ideal gas constant will be estimated, and the molar volume (volume occupied by one mole at T = 273 K and P = 1.00 atm) of the gas will be determined. Estimate the value of the ideal gas constant, R. Estimate the molar volume of hydrogen gas. www.wpi.edu /Academics/Depts/Chemistry/Courses/General/molarvolume.html   (573 words)

 The Ideal Gas Law   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) According to Avogadro's law, the molar volume at a specific value of T and P is a constant, independent of the nature of the gas. For n moles of gas the ideal gas law is represented by the equation PV = nRT. The value of the molar gas constant, R, depends on the units used for pressure and volume. chemistry.twu.edu /tutorial/IdealGasLaw.html   (151 words)

 Gas Laws From this, we derive the molar volume of a gas (volume/moles of gas). Using the Ideal Gas Law, and comparing the pressure of one gas to the total pressure, we solve for the mole fraction. As we stated earlier, the shape of a gas is determined entirely by the container in which the gas is held. www.shodor.org /unchem/advanced/gas/index.html   (1034 words)

 The Ideal Gas Law   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) The ideal gas law relates to the volume and pressure of a gas at a constant temperature.

 Universal gas constant - Information from Reference.com The ideal gas constant occurs in the simplest equation of state, the ideal gas law, as follows: (often abbreviated k) may be used in place of the other forms of the ideal gas constant by working in pure particle count rather than number of moles of gas; this simply requires carrying a factor of Avogadro's number. For example, the equation for the speed of sound, is usually written in terms of the specific gas constant. www.reference.com /search?q=Universal+gas+constant   (457 words)

 Adiabatic Expansion Cooling of Gases From these considerations it is clear that for a monotonic gas (like He) no vibrational or rotational energy terms exist, but, like all gaseous molecules, energy may be contained in translational motion. The thermodynamic expressions used to derive the heat capacity ratio apply only to the part of the gas that remains in the carboy after the stopper is replaced since molar volumes and molar heat capacities were used. No appreciable amount of heat is transferred between the reservoir and the gas in the carboy during the short period of the expansion, but after the stopper is replaced, the temperature is seen to increase as thermal equilibrium is reestablished for the gas remaining in the vessel. itl.chem.ufl.edu /4411L_f00/gamma/gamma.html   (1528 words)

 S-Cool! - AS & A2 Level Physics Revision - Quicklearn We’ve already stated that an Ideal Gas is one that perfectly obeys the Gas Laws. But in fact it was some years before it was explained that the movement was due to collisions between the pollen and millions of smaller (and therefore invisible) gas atoms. This was evidence of the continuous movement of gas atoms. www.s-cool.co.uk /topic_quicklearn.asp?loc=ql&topic_id=17&quicklearn_id=4&subject_id=2&ebt=184&ebn=&ebs=&ebl=&elc=13   (672 words)

 What will happen to the gas at absolute zero temperature (0 K)? The HUP states that the uncertainty of a particle's position and momentum (mass times velocity) are not independent of each other; the product of these uncertainties must be greater than a certain value. The number 'h' is called Planck's constant, and pops up throughout quantum mechanics. T, the thermodynamic temperature will be equal to 0, so the product of the molar gas constant R (8.31 J/mol/K) and the amount of moles n, will also be zero. www.physlink.com /Education/AskExperts/ae380.cfm   (418 words)
