Avogadro's Hypothesis
Equal volumes of any gas at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.
It follows that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas present in the sample.
Avogadro's Law
It states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles/particles of gas when the temperature and pressure are held constant.
The mathematical expression of Avogadro's Law is: V = k × n
Where,
- V = gas volume
- n = number of moles of gas
- k= constant
Some Applications
- Avogadro's Law is in evidence whenever you blow up a balloon. The volume of the balloon increases as you add moles of gas to the balloon by blowing it up.
- If the container holding the gas is rigid rather than flexible, pressure can be substituted for volume in Avogadro's Law. Adding gas to a rigid container makes the pressure increase.
