When measured at the same temperature and pressure, the ratio of the volumes of reacting gases are small whole numbers.

Gay Lussac’s Law of Combining Volumes

When measured at the same temperature and pressure, the ratio of the volumes of reacting gases are small whole numbers.

Avogadro’s Law

Equal volumes of different gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.

• Volume of one mole of any gas at STP = 22.4 L.

• 22.4 L at STP is known as the molar volume of any gas.

Mole-Mass-Volume Relationships

Find the mass in grams of 2.80 L of carbon dioxide?

• (2.8 L CO2)(1 mol CO2/22.4 L CO2)(44 g CO2 /1 mol CO2 ) = 5.5 g CO2

A balloon filled with 5.00 moles of helium gas is at a temperature of 25oC. The atmospheric pressure is 0.987 atm. What is the balloon’s volume?

Step 1. Organize the given information.

Convert temperature to kelvins.

K = oC + 273

K = 25oC + 273 = 298K

Step 2. Write and solve the ideal gas equation for the unknown.

Step 3. Substitute the given data into the equation and calculate.

D = MP/ RT

The density of a gas was measured at 1.50 atm and 27 ºC and found to be 1.95 g/L.

Calculate the molar mass of the gas.

• (1.95g/L)(0.08206 L atm/K mol)(300K)

• All calculations are done at STP.

• Gases are assumed to behave as ideal gases.

• A gas not at STP is converted to STP.

Gas Stoichiometry

deals with the quantitative relationships among reactants and products in a chemical reaction.

Mass- volume problem

Graham’s Law of Effusion

• Effusion – the process whereby the molecules of a gas confined in a container randomly pass through a tiny opening in the container.

• Rate (like diffusion) depends on the relative velocities of gas molecules.

• Lighter molecules move faster than heavier molecules at the same temperature.

Graham’s Law of Effusion

• The rates of effusion of gases at the same temperature and pressure are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses.

• Rate of effusion of A = MB

Rate of effusion of B MA
