Gas Law Review
No definite shape◦ It fills its container
Compressible◦ With increases in pressure
Low Density◦ Molecules are far apart◦ Intermolecular forces are ignored
Diffusion◦ Molecules can randomly spread out
Properties of Gases
Theoretical description of gases◦ Disregard the volume of the molecule itself
◦ Disregard any attractive force between molecules
Real gases stray from ideal gases at:◦ LOW Temperatures
◦ HIGH Pressures
Ideal Gas
At STP (Standard temperature and pressure), all gases have a volume of 22.4 L.
Standard Temperature:◦ 0oC◦ 273 K
Standard Pressure:◦ 101.3 kPa◦ 1 atm◦ 760 torr (or mmHg)
The volume of a quantity of gas, at constant pressure, varies directly with the Kelvin temperature.
Temperature MUST be in Kelvin! (oC + 273)

As pressure increases, volume decreases.
Temperature MUST be constant.

Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of particles.
Molar Volume- for a gas, the volume that one mole occupies at STP◦ Temp = 0oC or 273K◦ Pressure = 1 atm or 101.3 kPa or 760 torr (mmHg)

If a container has 166 torr H2, 109 torr CO2 and 176 torr of O2, what is the total pressure of the mixture?
116 torr + 109 torr + 176 torr = 401 torr
Our atmosphere is made of 21% O2, 78% N2 and 1% other gases. At sea level (standard pressure), what is the partial pressure of oxygen?
760 torr x 0.21 = 159 torr O2
The spontaneous spreading of particles
The rate of diffusion depends on the velocities and masses of the molecules
Effusion – the process by which a gas escapes from a small hole in a container
Lighter gases ALWAYS diffuse/effuse faster than heavier molecules
Diffusion
The relative rates at which two gases, at the same temperature and pressure, will diffuse, vary inversely as the square root of the molecular mass of the gases.
