Avogadro's Law statement

Equal volumes of gases have equal numbers of molecules at same T and P

Molar volume at s.t.p.

22.4 litres

Molar volume at room temperature and pressure

24.0 litres

Number of molecules in 1 mole

6.02×10236.02 \times 10^{23} molecules

Who proposed gases are made of molecules

Amedeo Avogadro

Gay-Lussac's discovery about gas reactions

Gases react in simple whole number ratios

Volume ratio for H2+Cl2→HCl\text{H}_2 + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow \text{HCl}

1:1:2

Same temperature means what for gas particles

Same average kinetic energy

What is molar volume

Volume occupied by one mole of any gas

What pressure depends on in gases (kinetic theory)

How often particles hit container walls

Conditions needed for Avogadro's Law to apply

Same temperature and pressure
