THE PROPERTIES OF GASES • A gas uniformly fills any container, is easily compressed and mixes completely with any other gas. • Only four quantities define the state of a gas: a. the quantity of the gas, n (in moles) b. the temperature of the gas, T (in KELVINS) c. the volume of the gas, V (in liters) d. the pressure of the gas, P (in atmospheres)
PRESSURE • A measure of the force that a gas exerts on its container. • Force is the physical quantity that interferes with inertia. • Gravity is the force responsible for weight. • Newton’s 2nd Law: Force = m × a • The units of force follow: N = kg × m/s2 • Pressure - Force ÷ unit area; N/m2
PRESSURE • Standard Pressure • 760.00 mm Hg • 760.00 torr • 1.00 atm • 101.325 kPa ≈ 105 Pa • The SI unit of pressure is the Pascal; 1 Pa = 1 N/m2
PRESSURE • Pressure is measured in a variety of units. *We will use all of these but psi.
PRESSURE • Barometer - measures gas pressure (especially atmospheric). 1 mm of Hg = 1 torr • Manometer—a device for measuring the pressure of a gas in a container. The pressure of the gas is given by h [the difference in mercury levels] in units of torr (equivalent to mm Hg).
PRACTICE ONE The pressure of a gas is measured as 49 torr. Represent this pressure in both atmospheres and pascals.
PRACTICE TWO Rank the following pressures in decreasing order of magnitude (largest first, smallest last): 75 kPa, 300. torr, 0.60 atm, and 350. mm Hg.
THE GAS LAWS • Boyle’s Law: V and P; inversely proportional. • Charles’ Law: T and V; directly proportional. • Gay-Lussac’s Law: P and T; directly proportional. • Avogadro’ Principle: moles and P or V; directly proportional.
BOYLE’S LAW THE LAW: the volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted on the gas: P1V1= P2V2 • P ∝ 1/V plot = straight line
GOOD HABITS EVERY TIME you do a gas laws problem: • Write what you know and what you are trying to find • Write the formula • Plug in the numbers with units and solve with the correct number of sig figs.
PRACTICE THREE Consider a 1.53L sample of gaseous SO2 at a pressure of 5.6 × 1O3 Pa. If the pressure is changed to 1.5 × 104 Pa at a constant temperature, what will be the new volume of the gas ?

PV vs. P • What is the y-intercept? How about the 3rd graph on page two? • Molar Volume of a gas: 22.42L
CHARLES LAW • THE LAW: If a given quantity of gas is held at a constant pressure, then its volume isdirectly proportional to the absolute temperature. V1T2 = V2T1 You must use the Kelvin! K = °C + 273
CHARLES’ LAW • Where do all the gases cross the x-intercept? • If the volume is zero, what is the temperature? • -273.15ºC or 0K
PRACTICE FIVE A sample of gas at 15ºC and 1 atm has a volume of 2.58 L. What volume will this gas occupy at 38ºC and 1 atm ?
GAY-LUSSAC’S LAW THE LAW: An increase in temperature increases the frequency of collisions between gas particles. In a given volume, raising the KELVIN temperature also raises the pressure. P1 T2= P2T1 You must use Kelvin!
AVOGADRO’S LAW Volume: 22.42L 22.42L22.42L Mass: 39.95g 32.00g 28.02g Quantity: 1 mol 1 mol 1 mol Pressure: 1 atm 1 atm 1 atm Temperature: 273K 273K 273K
AVOGADROS’S LAW • The volume of a gas, at a given temperature and pressure, is directly proportional to the quantity of gas. • Equal volumes of gases under the same conditions of temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules. • In gas law problems, moles is designated by an “n”. • One mole of a gas has a volume of 22.42 L (dm3) at STP. It also has 6.02 x 1023 particles of that gas.

DALTON’S LAW OF PARTIAL PRESSURES THE LAW: The pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures of the different components of the mixture: Ptotal= P1 + P2 + P3 +.....Pn
DALTON’S LAW OF PARTIAL PRESSURES Also uses the concept of mole fraction, χ χ A = moles of A moles A + moles B + moles C + . . . so now, PA = χ A / Ptotal The partial pressure of each gas in a mixture of gases in a container depends on the number of moles of that gas. The total pressure is the SUM of the partial pressures and depends on the total moles of gas particles present, no matter what they are.
