ChemistryUnit 9 – Gas Laws Lesson 3 – Ideal Gas Laws Book Section: 14.3 Do Now: What are the three formulas for Boyle’s, Charles’ and Guy-Lussac’s Laws?
Avogadro’s Law • There is a fourth basic gas law, but it is only used to make a combined version of all the gas laws called the ideal gas law. • Avogadro’s law says that the volume of gas increases as the amount of gas increases (moles). • Moles = n
Ideal Gas Law • If we look at the four equations, we see common elements: • P and V in the numerator • T and n in the denominator • In science, when we combine these gas laws mathematically, we can say that they are equal to a constant… • Constant = number that doesn’t change • R = ideal gas constant
Ideal Gas Law • If we simplify the equation, we get the ideal gas law: • PV = nRT • Volume must be in liters • Temperature must be in Kelvin • Pressure units can be different, and they determine the value of R • If P is in atmospheres, R = 0.0821 • If P is in kilopascals (kPa), R = 8.31 • If P is in torr or mmHg, R = 62.4 • Choosing which R to use is important!
Sample Problem • A deep underground cave contains 2.24 x 106 L of methane gas (CH4) at a pressure of 1,500 kPa and a temperature of 315 K. • How many moles of CH4 does this cavern contain? • How many kilograms of CH4 does this cavern contain?
