Law of Definite Proportions (Law of Constant Composition)
The law stating that a pure substance will always have the same percent by weight. Different samples of a pure compound always contain the same elements in the same proportions by mass.
Collision Theory
Theory of reaction rates that states that effective collisions between reactant molecules must occur in order for the reaction to occur.
Charle's Law
At constant pressure the volume occupied by a definite mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
Conduction Band
