I. Introduction - Some Gas Properties (Kinetic Theory)

A gas is composed of small molecules that are far apart & will compress when pressure is applied (explains V - P property of a gas). Gas molecules move randomly & the average speed is related to the temperature; a gas expands when temperature increases (explains diffusion, vapor pressure, & V - T properties of a gas). There are small attractive forces between gas molecules (small - explains why a gas diffuses & fills its container; small - explains deviations).

I. Introduction - Some Gas Properties


A gas has no set volume or shape but fills the entire container (result of small attractive forces and rapid velocity of gas molecules). A gas will liquefy when temperature is lowered or when pressure is increased (function of finite attractive forces & finite volume of gas molecules). Molecular collisions only reshuffle kinetic energy; collisions are elastic (explains lack of energy loss and evaporation).

I. Introduction


Comparison of Three States. Note the degree of order of the molecules in the three states; Solid = most ordered & Gases = most random.

II. Pressure
Pressure, P, is force per unit area P = F = m x a d2 d2 If mass is in kg, acceleration (a) in meters/sec2 (m/s2), & area (d2) in meters2 (m2); then pressure is in pascals (Pa) (kg/meters-sec2) which is the SI unit of pressure. P = m x a / d2 units are: (kg) x (m/s2) / m2 = kg m s2

1.00 Pascal (Pa) = 1.00 kg m s2 130 Pa is about equal to the pressure exerted by a nickel.

II. Pressure


The Pa was named after Blaise Pascal, a French physicist; it is a rather small unit of pressure.

Pressure exerted by a nickel (radius = 1.1 cm, mass = 5.0 g) = [5.0x10-3 kg] x [9.81 m/s2] [3.14 x (0.011m)2] = 129 kg/(ms2)

P=mxa d2

P = 130 Pa for a nickel

II. Pressure
Atmospheric pressure comes from mass of N2 & O2 being pulled to earth by gravity; a 1.00 in2 column of air going through our atmosphere would weigh 14.7 pounds at sea level. There are several common units of pressure, & you need to know the following conversion factors to 3 significant figures. Unit pascal, Pa (kg/ms2) atmospheres, (atm or a) mm Hg or torr, (mm) inches of Hg, (in. Hg) pounds per sq. in., (lb/in2) Air Pressure at Sea Level = Atmospheric Press. 101,325 Pa = 101.3 kPa 1.00 a 760. mm 29.92 in 14.7 lb/in2 (know these)

1.00 atm = 101 kPa = 14.7 lb/in2 = 760. torr or mm Hg Acceleration from gravity: g = 9.81 m/s2

II. Pressure - Measure pressure with 1) a Barometer:

Normal atmospheric pressure will support a column of liquid Hg 760. mm or 29.9 inches high.

If water is used in place of Hg, the height of the water would be 33.8 feet high since H2O is 13.5 times less dense than Hg.

II. Pressure - Measure pressure with 2) a Manometer Note: Manometer A is open to air at standard pressure and Manometer B contains a gas sample. A B

II. Pressure
For a barometer or column of liquid: P=gxdxh (know) g = 9.81 m/s2 (acceleration due to gravity) d = density of liquid (kg/m3); h = height of liquid (m) What is the pressure from a 1.00 meter tube of water in kPa? d of water = 1.00 g/cm3 (Need d in kg/m3) 1.00 g cm3 1.00 kg 1000. g (100. cm)3 (1.00 m)3 = 1.00x103 kg / m3

P = g x d x h = 9.81m/s2 x 1.00x103 kg/m3 x 1.00 m = 9.81x103 kg/ms2 = 9.81 x 103 Pa = 9.81 kPa

III. Gas Laws


A. Boyles Law - In 1601 Robert Boyle noted that the volume of a fixed amount of gas at a given temperature was inversely related to the pressure. V 1/P V = k x 1/P where k is a constant; PV = k or P2V2 = P1V1 - Example: 2.3 L of gas at 3.0 atm is expanded into a 5.0 L container. What is the new P? P2 = P1V1 = (3.0atm)(2.3L) = 1.4 atm V2 5.0L
(2 SF)

III. Gas Laws


B. Charles Law - In 1787 Jacques Charles noted a relationship between the volume of a given gas and temperature (in K). - For a given amount of gas at constant pressure, following is true (only in K): V = k x T or V/T = k V2/T2 = V1/T1 Where T is in the Kelvin scale

Example: 2.1 L of a gas at 27oC is cooled to -173oC. ( K = oC + 273.15 ) What is the new volume? 27 + 273 = 300. K (T1) - 173 + 273 = 100. K (T2) V2 = V1T2 = T1 (2.1L) (100.K) 300.K = 0.70 L

D. Avogadros Law

In 1811 Amedeo Avogadro related the V of gas to # of gas molecules (moles of gas). He died in 1856 & did not live to see his ideas accepted. V n (moles) at constant T & P At STP [Standard Temperature and Pressure; 1.00 atm and 0.00 oC know this] 1.00 mole = 22.4 L 22.4 L is a little larger than a basketball.

IV. Miscellaneous A. Molecular Speed & Kinetic Energy


- KE1 = mv2 & KE2 = 3/2RT; m = kg of gas; v = velocity in m/s; R = 8.314J/(mol x K); KE1 in J; KE2 in J/mol; KE2 = average for gas & is a function of temperature. KE1 for one particle. - Average speed (rms) = 3RT/mw mw in kg/mol, R in j/kmol

- By knowing average KE of the gas molecules can obtain the average velocity of the molecules. The average speed of H2 molecules at 25 oC is around 4300 miles/hour; much faster than the speed of bullet from a 30-06 rifle! - There is a difference between the average speed of the gas molecules and individual molecular speeds; there are faster and slower individual molecules. - P = nRT/V; pressure is not a direct function of MW
