Document Summary
If we observe how gases behave at temperature and pressures such as: gases expand to occupy the entire volume of their containers, gases in inflated party balloons escape at rates that are. 10. 2 effusion and the kinetic molecular theory of gases. There are tiny imperfections in latex rubber balloons that allow particles of gas to escape. Gas leaking through pin holes from a higher pressure space to a lower pressure space is called effusion. This phenomenon was investigated by thomas graham, who discovered that the rate of effusion of different gases was inversely proportional to the square root of their densities. In this chapter we investigate these and other properties of gases in. Gas molecules have tiny volumes compared with the collective. Because gas particles are so spread out, they don"t interact with volume they occupy, allowing particles in a gas to be treated as point masses masses with essentially no volume.
