The Kinetic Molecular model details other aspects of gas particle motion and collisions besides speed. Open the Run Experiment tool under the Experiment tab in the Simulation, and then select the Submicroscopic tab. You can track the motion of an individual gas particle by clicking the Track button in the lower right corner, and you can track a different gas particle by first clicking Pause, then clicking on a gas particle, and finally clicking Resume. Change several of the macroscopic conditions (temperature, pressure, and volume) of the ideal gas and observe how the movement of a tracked gas particle is affected by those changes and collisions. For each condition, make your observations over a consistent amount of time (e.g. 10 s). Then, complete the following statements that describe the atomic behavior of a gas particle. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. Make certain each sentence is complete before submitting your answer. ▸…

14. At 373 K at 110 kPa, it was found that 1.00 L of gas ( assume ideal gas) weighed 2.95 g. Its molecular mass is?
6. The ideal gas law is a very simple mathematical relationship that relates several physical properties of a gas. This law is only valid when the behavior of a gas is idealized according to three principal assumptions. (i) State the three assumptions made about an ideal gas, and for each assumption (ii) explain which physical property of a gas would be affected if that assumption was not made.
