Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures

Each individual gas has its own pressure (partial pressure)

Ptotal = Pa + Pb + Pc + …..

Sample problems for Dalton’s Law

Example: Calculate the partial pressure in mm Hg exerted by the four main gases in air: nitrogen, oxygen, argon and carbon dioxide. Their abundance by volume is 78.08%, 20.95%, .934% and .035 % respectively.

Sample problems for Dalton’s Law

Example : In a sample containing carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen at exactly 1 atm. The partial pressure of CO2 is .285 torr and the partial pressure of N2 is 593.525 torr. What is the partial pressure of O2?

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures

Collecting gas over water: -useful for gases that do not dissolve or react

with water - water has a partial pressure, it increases

with increased temp. -must use a table for the exact value pg. 859 Patm = Pgas + PH20

Charles’s Law

With constant amount of gas and pressure the volume and temperature of a gas will have a directly proportional relationship

Measuring and Comparing the Volumes of Reacting Gases

Avogadro’s Law Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature

Stoichiometry of Gases

- if constant temp and pressure, just use the molar ratio from the equation!!

- volume and moles are the same ratio as the equation!!

Effusion and diffusion

lighter molecules move faster Graham’s Law of Effusion-the rate of effusion and

diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular weights of the gases

Graham’s Law Practice

Example: Nitrogen gas effuses through a pinhole 1.7 times as fast as another element under the same conditions. Estimate the other element’s mass and determine its probable identity.
