  1. Gas Laws Robert Boyle Jacques Charles Amadeo Avogadro Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac

  2. The Combined Gas Law The combined gas law expresses the relationship between pressure, volume and temperature of a fixed amount of gas.

  3. Boyle’s Law Pressure is inversely proportional to volume when temperature is held constant.

  4. The volume of a gas is directly proportional to temperature, and extrapolates to zero at zero Kelvin. (P = constant) Charles’s Law Temperature MUST be in KELVINS!

  5. Gay Lussac’s Law The pressure and temperature of a gas are directly related, provided that the volume remains constant. Temperature MUST be in KELVINS!

  6. For a gas at constant temperature and pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas (at low pressures). V = an a = proportionality constant V = volume of the gas n = number of moles of gas Avogadro’s Law

  7. PV = nRT P = pressure in atm V = volume in liters n = moles R = proportionality constant = 0.08206 L atm/ mol·K T = temperature in Kelvins Ideal Gas Law Holds closely at P < 1 atm

  8. Real Gases At high pressure (smaller volume) and low temperature (attractive forces become important) you must adjust for non-ideal gas behavior using van der Waal’s equation. ­ ­ corrected pressure corrected volume Pideal Videal

  9. Gas Density … so at STP…

  10. Density and the Ideal Gas Law Combining the formula for density with the Ideal Gas law, substituting and rearranging algebraically: M = Molar Mass P = Pressure R = Gas Constant T = Temperature in Kelvins

  11. Gas Stoichiometry #1 If reactants and products are at the same conditions of temperature and pressure, then mole ratios of gases are also volume ratios. 3 H2(g) + N2(g)  2NH3(g) 3moles H2 +1mole N2 2moles NH3 3liters H2 + 1liter N2 2liters NH3

  12. Gas Stoichiometry #2 How many liters of ammonia can be produced when 12 liters of hydrogen react with an excess of nitrogen? 3 H2(g) + N2(g)  2NH3(g) 12 L H2 2 L NH3 = L NH3 8.0 3 L H2

  13. Gas Stoichiometry #3 How many liters of oxygen gas, at STP, can be collected from the complete decomposition of 50.0 grams of potassium chlorate? 2 KClO3(s)  2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g) 50.0 g KClO3 1 mol KClO3 3 mol O2 22.4 L O2 122.55 g KClO3 2 mol KClO3 1 mol O2 = 13.7 L O2

  14. Gas Stoichiometry #4 How many liters of oxygen gas, at 37.0C and 0.930 atmospheres, can be collected from the complete decomposition of 50.0 grams of potassium chlorate? 2KClO3(s)  2KCl(s) + 3O2(g) 50.0 g KClO3 1 mol KClO3 3mol O2 0.612 = mol O2 122.55 g KClO3 2mol KClO3 = 16.7 L

  15. For a mixture of gases in a container, PTotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + . . . Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures This is particularly useful in calculating the pressure of gases collected over water.
