📚 Quick Study Guide

  • 🌡️ The Ideal Gas Law: $PV = nRT$, where P = pressure, V = volume, n = moles, R = ideal gas constant, and T = temperature (in Kelvin).
  • 📏 Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP): 0°C (273.15 K) and 1 atm.
  • ⚖️ Molar Mass: The mass of one mole of a substance (g/mol).
  • 🔢 Gas Stoichiometry: Use mole ratios from balanced chemical equations to relate the amounts of gaseous reactants and products.
  • 🧮 Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures: The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas: $P_{total} = P_1 + P_2 + ... + P_n$.
  • 💡Remember to always use consistent units!
