Gases

Characteristics of Gases

• Unlike liquids and solids, they Expand to fill their containers. Are highly compressible. Have extremely low densities.

Gases

Measurements

• We have learned in our early chapters and experienced in the lab, the means of measurement for solids and liquids

• We will begin our study of gases by looking at the means we employ to make measurements on gases

Gases

Measurements involving Gases

• To describe a gas we must specify the following:

1.Volume

2. Amount

3.Temperature

4. Pressure

Gases

Volume of Gases

• Gases expand uniformly to fill any container they are placed in

• Therefore, the volume of a gas is the volume of its container

• Volumes are expressed in L, cm3 or m3

Gases

Amount

• The amount of matter in a sample of gas is expressed in terms of the number of moles(n)

• Sometimes the mas in grams is given

• n = g/mol mass(M)

• n(M)= g

Gases

Temperature

• Temperature of a gas is measured in Celsius

• Calculations will require conversion to the Kelvin scale

• TK = Tcelsius + 273.15

• Temperature is expressed to the nearest degree (simply add 273 to celsius temperature)

Gases

• Pressure is the amount of force applied to an area.

Pressure

• Atmospheric pressure is the weight of air per unit of area.

P =FA

Gases

Units of Pressure

• English System pounds per square inch (psi)

• Pascals (SI unit) 1 Pa = 1 N/m2

• Bar 1 bar = 105 Pa = 100 kPa

Gases

Units of Pressure

• mm Hg or torrThese units are literally the difference in the heights measured in mm (h) of two connected columns of mercury.

• Atmosphere1.00 atm = 760 torr

Gases

Manometer

Used to measure the difference in pressure between atmospheric pressure and that of a gas in a vessel.

Gases

Standard Pressure

• Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level.

• It is equal to1.00 atm760 torr (760 mm Hg)101.325 kPa

Gases

Boyle’s Law

The volume of a fixed quantity of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure.

Gases

Boyle’s Law

Gases

As P and V areinversely proportional

A plot of V versus P results in a curve.

Since

V = k (1/P)This means a plot of V versus 1/P will be a straight line.

PV = k

Gases

Charles’s Law

• The volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

A plot of V versus T will be a straight line.

• i.e.,VT

= k

Gases

Avogadro’s Law

• The volume of a gas at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas.

• Mathematically, this means V = kn

Densities of Gases

If we divide both sides of the ideal-gas equation by V and by RT, we get

Densities of Gases

• Mass volume = density

• So,

• Note: One only needs to know the molecular mass, the pressure, and the temperature to calculate the density of a gas.

Gases

Partial Pressures

• When one collects a gas over water, there is water vapor mixed in with the gas.

• To find only the pressure of the desired gas, one must subtract the vapor pressure of water from the total pressure.

Kinetic-Molecular Theory

This is a model that aids in our understanding of what happens to gas particles as environmental conditions change.

Gases

Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases1. A gas is composed of molecules that are separated from each

other by distances far greater than their own dimensions. The molecules can be considered to be points; that is, they possess mass but have negligible volume.

2. Gas molecules are in constant motion in random directions, and they frequently collide with one another. Collisions among molecules are perfectly elastic.

3. Gas molecules exert neither attractive nor repulsive forces on one another.

4. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to the temperature of the gas in kelvins. Any two gases at the same temperature will have the same average kinetic energy
