1. Temperature and Heat Review

2. Chapter 13: Temperature and Ideal Gas • What is Temperature? • Temperature Scales • Thermal Expansion • Molecular Picture of a Gas • The Ideal Gas Law • Kinetic Theory of Ideal Gases • Chemical Reaction Rates • Diffusion

3. §13.1 Temperature Heat is the flow of energy due to a temperature difference. Heat always flows from objects at high temperature to objects at low temperature. When two objects have the same temperature, they are in thermal equilibrium.

4. The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics: If two objects are each in thermal equilibrium with a third object, then the two objects are in thermal equilibrium with each other.

5. §13.2 Temperature Scales (*) Values given at 1 atmosphere of pressure.

6. The temperature scales are related by: Fahrenheit/Celsius Absolute/Celsius

7. Example (text problem 13.3): (a) At what temperature (if any) does the numerical value of Celsius degrees equal the numerical value of Fahrenheit degrees? (b) At what temperature (if any) does the numerical value of kelvins equal the numerical value of Fahrenheit degrees?

8. §13.3 Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids Most objects expand when their temperature increases.

9. An object’s length after its temperature has changed is  is the coefficient of linear expansion where T = TT0 and L0 is the length of the object at a temperature T0.

10. Example (text problem 13.84): An iron bridge girder (Y = 2.01011 N/m2) is constrained between two rock faces whose spacing doesn’t change. At 20.0 C the girder is relaxed. How large a stress develops in the iron if the sun heats the girder to 40.0 C?  = 12106 K1 (from Table 13.2) Using Hooke’s Law:

11. L0 L0+L How does the area of an object change when its temperature changes? The blue square has an area of L02. With a temperature change T each side of the square will have a length change of L = TL0.

12. The fractional change in area is:

13. The fractional change in volume due to a temperature change is: For solids  = 3

14. §13.4 Molecular Picture of a Gas The number density of particles is N/V where N is the total number of particles contained in a volume V. If a sample contains a single element, the number of particles in the sample is N = M/m. N is the total mass of the sample (M) divided by the mass per particle (m).

15. One mole of a substance contains the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of 12C. The number of atoms in 12 grams of 12C is Avogadro’s number.

16. A carbon-12 atom by definition has a mass of exactly 12 atomic mass units (12 u). This is the conversion factor between the atomic mass unit and kg (1 u = 1.661027 kg). NA and the mole are defined so that a 1 gram sample of a substance with an atomic mass of 1 u contains exactly NA particles.

17. Example (text problem 13.37): Air at room temperature and atmospheric pressure has a mass density of 1.2 kg/m3. The average molecular mass of air is 29.0 u. How many air molecules are there in 1.0 cm3 of air? The total mass of air in the given volume is:

18. Example continued:

19. §13.5 Absolute Temperature and the Ideal Gas Law Experiments done on dilute gases (a gas where interactions between molecules can be ignored) show that: For constant pressure Charles’ Law For constant volume Gay-Lussac’s Law

20. For constant temperature Boyle’s Law Avogadro’s Law For constant pressure and temperature

21. Putting all of these statements together gives the ideal gas law (microscopic form): k = 1.381023 J/K is Boltzmann’s constant The ideal gas law can also be written as (macroscopic form): R = NAk = 8.31 J/K/mole is the universal gas constant and n is the number of moles.

22. Example (text problem 13.41): A cylinder in a car engine takes Vi = 4.50102 m3 of air into the chamber at 30 C and at atmospheric pressure. The piston then compresses the air to one-ninth of the original volume and to 20.0 times the original pressure. What is the new temperature of the air? Here, Vf = Vi/9, Pf = 20.0Pi, and Ti = 30 C = 303 K. The ideal gas law holds for each set of parameters (before compression and after compression).

23. Example continued: Take the ratio: The final temperature is The final temperature is 673 K = 400 C.

24. §13.6 Kinetic Theory of the Ideal Gas An ideal gas is a dilute gas where the particles act as point particles with no interactions except for elastic collisions.

25. Gas particles have random motions. Each time a particle collides with the walls of its container there is a force exerted on the wall. The force per unit area on the wall is equal to the pressure in the gas. • The pressure will depend on: • The number of gas particles • Frequency of collisions with the walls • Amount of momentum transferred during each collision

26. The pressure in the gas is Where <Ktr> is the average translational kinetic energy of the gas particles; it depends on the temperature of the gas.

27. The average kinetic energy also depends on the rms speed of the gas where the rms speed is

28. The distribution of speeds in a gas is given by the Maxwell-Boltzmann Distribution.

29. Example (text problem 13.60): What is the temperature of an ideal gas whose molecules have an average translational kinetic energy of 3.201020 J?

30. Example (text problem 13.70): What are the rms speeds of helium atoms, and nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen molecules at 25 C? On the Kelvin scale T = 25 C = 298 K.
