What are Characteristics of a GAS?

Gases have no mass.

Gases have novolume.

Gases do not interact – elastic collisions.

Gases have mass.

Gases have volume.

Gases exert forceson each other.

What does PRESSURE mean?

PAF=

• In Life:

Pressure = a stoichiometry quiz every day

• In Science:

Pressure = force per unit area

How else can we measure Pressure?

Standard Temperature & Pressure

273 K 1 atmosphere (atm)

How is pressure measured?

A barometer is a deviceused to measureatmospheric pressure.

The first type of barometerintroduced by Torricelli in the early 1600s.

How can we change Gases?

Action Variable

Heat it up/Cool it down Temperature

Compress or Decompress

Pressure

Change container size Volume

A Reminder…

We that we live in an world where:

• Gas particles have no mass

• Gas particles have no volume

• Gas particles have elastic collisions

These assumptions are used when trying to calculate the AMOUNT of a gas we have!

Why are these assumptions important?

PV = nRT

PV = nRT

PRESSURE

VOLUME

n MOLES OF GAS

R GAS CONSTANT

TEMPERATURE

The MysteRious R• R is a constant (doesn’t change).

• Number value of R depends on other units.

• Units of R are a combination of many units.

0.0821 atm · Lmol · K

8.31 kPa · Lmol · K

62.4 mmHg · Lmol · K

What?

PV = nRT

Solve for R:

R = P Vn T

R =

Plug in units:

(mm Hg) (L)

(mol) (K)

(kPa) (atm)

Used with CHANGING CONDITIONSP V = n R T

Used with only ONE SET OF CONDITIONS

When to Use PV = nRT• Calculating amount of gas in moles

• Calculating P, V, or T if moles of gas are known.– IMPORTANT! We must have 3 out of 4

pieces of information:

• P

• V

• n

• T

How do the gas laws apply to gas mixtures, like air?

In a mixture of nonreacting gases, each gas contributes to the total pressure in proportion to the fraction (by volume) in which it is present. This contribution is called the partial pressure of the gas.

Total Pressure = Pressure of gas 1 + Pressure of gas 2 + Pressure of gas 3 + Pressure of gas 4 …

Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + …

“The sum of the individual pressures is equal to the total pressure.”

Molar Volume of a Gas

Do you remember the value of one mole?

6.02 x 1023

One mole of oxygen, O2, contains 6.022 x 1023

oxygen molecules and has a mass of 31.99 g.

One mole of helium gashas a mass of 4.002 g. Does helium have the same number of molecules?

Yes!Equal volumes ofgases at the sametemperature and pressure contain equalnumbers of molecules.

Will 1 mole of O2 gas and 1 mole of He gas occupy thesame volume (at the same temperature and pressure) despite different masses?

Remember, according to Avogadro’s law, one mole of anygas will occupy the same volume as one mole of any othergas at the same temperature and pressure, despite massdifferences.

The volume occupied by one mole of gas at STP. It has been found to be 22.41410 L.
