How does a
gas exert pressure on a surface?
 
Gas particles collide repeatedly
with each and the surface inside
the container.
 
Each impact on the surface
exerts a tiny force, the total
force causes a steady pressure
on the surface.
 
The pressure of a gas on the
surface is the total force exerted
on a unit area of the surface.

Task: 
Watch the video and answer the following
questions:
 
1.
How can you describe the movement of gas
particles?
2.
How does a gas exert pressure on a surface?
3.
How are we able to increase gas pressure
4.
Describe the motion of gases at low
temperatures
5.
Describe the motion of gases at higher
temperatures
6.
What impact does the temperature have on gas
pressure?
 
1.
Gas particles move in a random motion
2.
Gas pressure occurs when gas particles collide
repeatedly with the walls of the contained that the gas
is held in.
3.
We can increase gas pressure if we increase the
number of collisions per second or the energy of each
collision.
4.
At low temperature, particles have low kinetic energy
and so have fewer collisions per second and these are
lower energy collisions.
5.
At higher temperatures, particles have more kinetic
energy and so have more collisions per second, and
these are higher energy collisions.
6.
At lower temperatures, the gas pressure is lower, at
higher temperatures the gas pressure is higher.

Air is sealed in a flask, which is then placed in a water
bath.
 
The water is heated in stages to raise the temperature in
stages, the water must be stirred at each stage.
 
Task:
Answer the
questions on
the
worksheet.
 
Self-assessment:
 
1.
It is important to stir the water at each stage to ensure
that the water temperature is the same throughout.
 
2.
Temperature is measured with the thermometer
3.
Pressure is measured using the pressure gauge.

5. As the temperature increases,
the pressure also increases. This
is due to the gas particles
possessing more kinetic energy,
this means they will collide more
frequently and more forcefully
with each other and  the surface
of the container. This leads to an
increase in pressure.

Task: 
Read the information on the sheet and
answer the following questions:
 
1.
Describe the movement of smoke particles as seen in
a smoke cell.
 
2.
Draw and label a diagram to demonstrate this
movement of smoke particles.
 
3.
What does the movement of smoke within a smoke
cell provide us evidence of?

1.
The smoke particles move randomly throughout the
smoke cell, can be called Brownian motion.
2.
 
 
 
 
 
 
3.
The random and unpredictable motion of smoke
particles in the smoke cell is evidence of the random
motion of gas molecules.

Observing random motion
 
Individual molecules are too small for you to see directly, but by using a
piece of equipment called a ‘smoke cell’ and a microscope.
 
The smoke cell is firstly filled with
smoke and a light is shone into the cell.
You can view the smoke particles using a
microscope and what you will observe is
the smoke particles constantly changing
direction. The path taken by one smoke
particle will look something like this
 
Why is this happening? The air particles, which we cannot see, are
repeatedly colliding at random with the larger smoke particles.  The air
particles must be moving very fast as they are much to small for us to
observe.  What we can see are the smoke particles moving in random
directions due to the random impacts of the air particles on each smoke
particle.
