As part of our review, we need to recap and summarize the nature of gases and the kinetic-molecular theory of gases (KMT). Based upon the postulates of the KMT and the results of experiments with gases, the Gas Laws were developed - Boyle's Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, Charles' Law, Avogadro's Law, and Dalton's Law. From these laws, a powerful equation is derived: PV = nRT.
The concepts concerning gases are discussed in chapter 13 of the textbook.
HW: Using the textbook, summarize the six physical properties of gases; summarize the six postulates of the KMT; define the term postulate (pgs 417-423 of the textbook). Also, explain the limitations of the ideal gas law (pgs 444-445).
