Ideal Gas Imaginary gas that conforms to all of the assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory (Day 1)
Real Gas • Can sometimes conform to all of the assumptions of the kinetic theory it can behave ideally • Does not behave ideally at high pressures and/or low temperatures
Ideal Gas Law • P = pressure • V = Volume (L) • n = number of moles • R = ideal gas constant • T = temperature (K) P V = n R T
R: Ideal Gas Constant • R = 0.0821 L atm K mol • R = 62.4 L mmHg K mol Choose R so that the pressure units match the pressure units in the problem.
What is the pressure (in mm Hg) exerted by 85.5 g of CO2 at 27˚C if the gas is contained in a 15.0 L container? P = ? V = 15.0 L n = ? (85.5 g) R = 62.4 L mm Hg K mol T = 27oC + 273 = 300 K Example #1:
Example #1: PV = nRT P = nRT V
Example #2: What is the mass of 120 L of SO2 at a temperature of 40˚C and a pressure of 1.85 atm? P = 1.85 atm V = 120 L n = ??? (but want grams) R = 0.0821 L atm K mol T = 40oC + 273 = 313 K
Example #2: PV = nRT PV RT n =
We can also derive many formulas from PV=nRT to determine other values… • Molar Mass = DRT P • Molar Mass = # grams # moles (n) • Density = P*Molar Mass RT
Example 3What is the molar mass of a gas if 0.628g of the gas occupies a volume or 150 mL at 25˚C and 7456 mm Hg pressure?
Molar Mass = # g0.628 g # mol Use PV=nRT to find the moles: n = PV RT
