Properties of Gases • Gases form homogeneous mixtures • Gases are compressible • All gases have low densities • air 0.0013 g/mL • water 1.00 g/mL • iron 7.9 g/mL • Gases expand to fill their containers uniformly • A gas exerts a pressure
Kinetic Molecular Theory • Gases consist of molecular particles moving in straight lines at any given instant. • Molecules collide with each other and the container walls without any net loss of energy. • Gas molecules behave independently -- attractive/repulsive forces between them are negligible. • Gas molecules are widely spaced, the actual volume of molecules is negligible compared to the space they occupy. • The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is proportional to the temperature.
Pressure, Volume, and Temperature Relationships • Pressure, volume, and temperature units • Boyle's law • Charles' law • Gay-Lussac's law • Avogadro's law
A. Pressure, Volume, and Temperature Relationships force unit area SI: 1 pascal (Pa) = 1 N/m2 common: 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr = 14.7 lb/in2 (psi) = 101.325 kPa = 1.013 bar • Pressure = • -measured with barometer • or manometer Volume: mL, L Temperature: K
Pressure • Defined as force per unit area
Pressure Units • 101.325 kPa • = 760 mmHg • =760 torr • =1 atm • =30 in Hg • =14.7 psi

Dalton’s law of partial pressures1. Dalton’s law partial pressure, p = pressure exerted by each gas in a mixture of gases e.g., If 6.00 g of O2 and 9.00 g of CH4 are placed in a 15.0-L container at 0º, what is the partial pressure of each gas and the total pressure in the container.
Dalton’s law of partial pressures2. mole fraction PT = p1 + p2 + p3… p1 = X1PT e.g., Air is 78 mol % N2 and 22 mol % O2. What is the partial pressure of each gas if the atmospheric pressure is 713 torr?
Dalton’s law of partial pressures3. collecting gases over water vapor pressure = pressure exerted by evaporation of a liquid (or sublimation of a solid) pvap vacuum equilibrium at some T liquid or solid • pvap increases with T • e.g., H2O T pvap • 0ºC 4.6 torr • 25ºC 23.8 torr • 100ºC 760 torr (boils!)
Dalton’s law of partial pressures3. collecting gases over water • Mixture of gas and water vapor. • PT = pgas + pvap(H2O)
