Temperature and ideal gases written questions
Practise H2 Physics temperature, ideal-gas and kinetic-theory questions, with worked guidance for calculations and explanations.
Learning goals
- Use thermodynamic temperature and convert between Celsius and kelvin.
- Use ideal-gas equations with particles, moles and SI units.
- Apply the kinetic model to gas pressure and mean translational kinetic energy.
- Derive pV = ⅓Nm⟨c²⟩ from the definition of pressure and a one-dimensional model of molecular collisions extended to three dimensions.
