Description of how the kinetic model accounts for the pressure of a gas.
Knowledge of the relationship between Kelvin and degrees Celsius and the absolute zero of temperature. 0K = -273°C
Explanation of the pressure–volume, pressure–temperature and volume–temperature laws qualitatively in terms of a kinetic model.
Description of experiments to verify the pressure–volume law (Boyle’s law), the pressure–temperature law (Gay-Lussac’s law) and the volume–temperature law (Charles’ law).
Use of an appropriate relationship to solve problems involving pressure, force and area.
Use of appropriate relationships to solve problems involving the volume, pressure and temperature of a fixed mass of gas.
