THREE STATES OF MATTER

OBJECTIVE

• Understand that the physical properties of a gaseous substance

can be altered by external condition

General Properties of Gases

• There is a lot of “free” space in a gas.

• Gases can be expanded infinitely.

• Gases fill containers uniformly and completely.

• Gases diffuse and mix rapidly.

Properties of GasesGas properties can be modeled

using math. Model depends on—

• V = volume of the gas (L)• T = temperature (K)

–ALL temperatures in the entire chapter MUST be in Kelvin!!! No Exceptions!

• n = amount (moles)• P = pressure

(atmospheres)

Objective

• Students will learn what a barometer is and its importance to air pressure

• Students will calculate problems using knowledge of a barometer

PressurePressure of air is measured

with a BAROMETER (developed by Torricelli in 1643)

Hg rises in tube until force of Hg (down) balances the force of atmosphere (pushing up). (Just like a straw in a soft drink)

P of Hg pushing down related to • Hg density• column height

Gas Pressure• Gas Pressure is related to the mass of the gas and to

the motion of the gas particles• Gas molecules move and bounce off the walls of their

container– These collisions cause gas pressure

• Pressure is a force per unit area– Standard Units of pressure = Pascal(Pa) – 1 Pa is the pressure of 1 Newton per square meter (N/m2)

• Normal air pressure at sea level is 101.325 kilopascals (kPa)• 101.325 kPa = 760mm Hg, 1kPa = 7.5 mm Hg (1 kPa=1000Pa)

– Other units of pressure, Atmosphere or psi• 1.00 atm = 760 mm Hg = 101.325 kPa =14.7 psi

Atmospheric Pressure• The pressure exerted on the Earth by the gasses in the

atmosphere• Absolute pressure will include the pressure on a closed

system, as indicated by a gauge PLUS the pressure exerted by the atmosphere.

Ex.The pressure gauge on a bicycle tire reads 44 psi, what is the

absolute pressure? 44psi+14.7psi =59 psiConvert to kPa; 59 psi X (101.3kPa/14.7 psi) =410kPa

Objective

• Students will learn how to calculate open ended system problems

Barometer vs. Manometer: Both measure pressure

Barometer: is always closed end

Calculations for Open Ended System

• If mmHg is higher in open end• Pgas =Patmosphere + Ph3

Solve for gas pressure if:Ph3 = 185 mmHg

Atmospheric pressure is 98.95 kPa1. Convert mmHg to kPa

# kPa = (185mm/1)(1kPa/7.50mm)=24.7 kPa2. Add kPa to atmospheric pressurePressure of gas = 98.95 +24.7= 124kPa

Closed system: Used to measure pressure of a gas

•The closed arm is filled with gas, what is the pressure of the gas, in kPa?

• The difference in the Hg level is 165 mm• 7.50 mm = 1 kPa

Pressure of gas = (165.0 mm/1) ( 1kPa/7.5 mm) = 22.0 kPa

Try some yourself1. Closed manometer containing sulfur dioxide gas

(SO2). Height difference in mmHg is 560, what is the pressure of SO2 in kPa?

2. An open monometer containing Hydrogen. Hg level is 78.0 mmHg in the arm connected to the air (open end), air pressure is 100.7kPa. What is the pressure of Hydrogen in kPa?

3. An open monometer containing Nitrogen. Hg level is 26.0 mmHg in the arm connected to the gas, air pressure is 99.6kPa. What is the pressure of nitrogen in kPa?

Answers

1. Pressure of SO2 = (560.0 mm/1) ( 1kPa/7.5 mm) = 74.6 kPa

2. # kPa = (78.0mm/1)(1kPa/7.50mm)=10.4 kPa Pressure of H2= 100.7kPa + 10.4kPa= 111.1 kPa

3. # kPa= (26.0mm/1)(1kPa/7.50mm)= 3.47kPa

Pressure of N2 = -3.47kPa + 99.6 =96.1kPa

notice the negative number, less than air pressure

Mathematic Relationships

There is a Mathematical Relationship between Pressure, Temperature and Volume of a constant amount of gas

• Gas volumes change significantly with small changes in temperature and pressure

• These changes can be defined by equations called the gas laws.

• Gas laws are only valid for ideal gasses• Ideal gases: do not exist, but are a model, they have

no attractive force and no volume

Boyle’s LawP α 1/VThis means Pressure and

Volume are INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL if moles and temperature are constant (do not change). For example, P goes up as V goes down.

P1V1 = P2 V2 Robert Boyle (1627-1691). Son of Earl of Cork, Ireland.

Boyle’s Law and Kinetic Molecular Theory

P proportional to 1/V

Boyle’s LawA bicycle pump is a

good example of Boyle’s law.

As the volume of the air trapped in the pump is reduced, its pressure goes up, and air is forced into the tire.

Boyle’s Law Example Problems1. If 425 mL of O2 are collected at a pressure of 9.80 kPa what

volume will the gas occupy if the pressure is changed to 9.40 kPa?

• the pressure decreases from 9.8 to 9.4 kPa. (V will increase)V2 = V1 X P1/P2

(425mL/1) ( 9.8 kPa/9.4 kPa) = 443.0 mL2. Calculate the pressure of a gas that occupies a volume of 125.0

mL, if at a pressure of 95.0 kPa, it occupies a volume of 219.0 mL.

• the volume decreases from 219.0 mL to 125.0mL.(P will increase)P2 = P1 X V1/V2 (95.0 kPa/1) (219.0 mL/125.0mL) = 166.0 kPa

then V α TV and T are directly

goes up, the volume goes up!

Charles’s Law

Charles’s Law; relates Temperature and Volume

• In an ideal gas, with constant pressure, if the temperature increases the volume will increase.

• Charles’s Law: at a constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature. (you must express temp in degrees K)

• New volume =old volume X degree K temp change V2 = V1 X T2/T1

• New temperature = old temp (K) X volume change T2 = T1 X V2/V1

- Mentally decide if the new volume is larger or smaller than the old, arrange the pressure ratio accordingly (If larger use fraction greater than 1, If smaller use fraction less than 1)

Charles’s Law Example Problem1. What volume will a sample of nitrogen occupy at 28.0

degrees C if the gas occupies a volume of 457 mL at a temperature of 0.0 degrees C? Assume the pressure remains constant.

convert temp to KK= 273 + degrees CK = 273 + 28.0 degrees C = 301 K

and K = 273 + 0.0 C = 273 K

(Temp increase means Volume increase: Ratio > than 1)New Volume = (457mL/1) (301 k/273 k) = 504 mL

Charles’s Law Example Problem #22. If a gas occupies a volume of 733 mL at 10.0 dC, at

what temperature in C degrees, will it occupy a volume of 1225 mL if the pressure remains constant? (increased volume means increased temperature)

Convert °C to °K (°K = °C + 273) 10.0 °C = 283 °K T2 = T1 X V2/V1

= (283 °K/1) (1225 mL/733 mL) = 473 °KConvert °K to °C

°C = 473 K – 273 = 200 °C

Combined Gas Law: when both temperature and pressure change occur

• Boyle’s and Charles’s laws used together make the combined gas law.

• A pressure ratio and a Kelvin temperature ratio are needed to calculate the new volume.

New Volume = old volume X pressure ratio X Kelvin temperature ratio

• P1T2=P2T1 or P1 = P2

Avogadro’s Law; relates volume to moles

• Avogadro's Law states: for a gas at constant temperature and pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas.

• Avogadro's law relates the quantity of a gas and its volume.

• According to Avogadro's Law: V1n2 = V2n1

• When any three of the four quantities in the equation are known, the fourth can be calculated. – For example, if n1, V1 and V2 are known, the n2 can be solved by

the following equation:– n2 = V2 x (n1/V1)

Avogadro’s Law Practice• Example #1: 5.00 L of a gas is known to

contain 0.965 mol. If the amount of gas is increased to 1.80 mol, what new volume will result (at an unchanged temperature and pressure)?

• Answer: this time I'll use V1n2 = V2n1 • (5.00 L) (1.80 mol) = (x) (0.965 mol)

Avogadro’s Law PracticeExample #2: A cylinder with a movable piston contains 2.00 g of helium, He,

at room temperature. More helium was added to the cylinder and the volume was adjusted so that the gas pressure remained the same. How many grams of helium were added to the cylinder if the volume was changed from 2.00 L to 2.70 L? (The temperature was held constant.)

Solution: 1) Convert grams of He to moles: 2.00 g / 4.00 g/mol = 0.500 mol 2) Use Avogadro's Law: V1/n1 = V2/n2 2.00 L / 0.500 mol = 2.70 L / x x = 0.675 mol3) Compute grams of He added: 0.675 mol - 0.500 mol = 0.175 mol 0.175 mol x 4.00 g/mol = 0.7 grams

of He added

Progression of Laws

• Boyles', Charles', and Avogadro's laws combine to form the ideal gas law, which is the uber law of gases.

• The ideal gas law can be manipulated to explain Dalton's law, partial pressure, gas density, and the mole fraction. It can also be used to derive the other gas laws.

Ideal Gas Law• The ideal gas law is an ideal law. It operates

under a number of assumptions. • The two most important assumptions are that

the molecules of an ideal gas do not occupy space and do not attract each other.

• These assumptions work well at the relatively low pressures and high temperatures, but there are circumstances in the real world for which the ideal gas law holds little value.

Ideal Gas Law• Equation: PV = nRT P is pressure in kPa V is volume in cubic decimeters T is temperature in K n represents the number of moles of the gasR is a constant , using these units, is 8.31 L kPa/mol K (R can have different units when needed)• This equation can be used to determine the molecular mass of a gas

– Moles (n) = mass(m)/ molecular mass(M)

PV = m RT M

IDEAL GAS LAW

Brings together gas properties.

Can be derived from experiment and theory.

BE SURE YOU KNOW THIS EQUATION!

P V = n R T

Amount of Gas Present

• Amount of gas present is related to its pressure, temperature and volume using the Ideal Gas Law

• Applying the gas law allows for the calculation of the amount of gaseous reactants and products in reactions
