Gases are made up of atoms and molecules just like all other compounds, but because they are in the form of a gas we can learn a great deal more about these molecules and compounds. It might seem a bit confusing because we can’t see most gases, but we know they exist.
Elements that exist as gases at 250C and 1 atmosphere
I. Let’s look at some of the Nature of Gases: • 1. Expansion– gases do NOT have a definite shape or volume. • 2.Fluidity– gas particles glide past one another, called fluid just like a liquid.
Nature of Gases cont. • 3.Compressibility– can be compressed because gases take up mostly empty space. • 4.Diffusion– gases spread out and mix without stirring and without a current. Gases mix completely unless they react with each other.
The word KINETIC refers to motion • Kinetic energy= energy an object has because of its motion Collisions of Gas Particles
II. Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases Particles of matter (any type) are in constant motion! Because we know this we have a few assumptions that we make about gases, called the Molecular Theory of Gases:
Kinetic theory: 1.Particles of a gas are in constant, straight-line motion, until they collide. • They move independently from each other Molecular Motion
Kinetic theory: 2. Gases consist of a large number of tiny particles (moleculesor atoms) ; these particles are very far apart, therefore gas is mostly empty space. • There are no forces of attraction or repulsion between particles of gases.
elastic collisions inelastic collisions Kinetic theory: • 3.Collisions between particles of a gas and the container wall are elastic. Which means there is no loss of energy. • Total Kinetic energy remains constant.
Kinetic theory: • The average kinetic energy of gas particles depends on the temperature of the gas. (It is directly proportional) • KE=1/2 mv2 • (m=mass in kg and v=velocity is m/sec) • Calories (cal) ..Joules (j) measure Enegy • 1 cal= 4.18 J • 1Cal = 1000 cal
III. Volume, Pressure, Temperature, Number of Moles (Descriptions of Gases) 1.Volume – refers to the space matter (gas) occupies. • Measured in liters (L). 1.00 dm3 = 1.00L = 1000 cm3 = 1000mL Volume (V)
Pressure (P) • 2. Pressure(P) – the number of times particles collide with each other and the walls of the container (force exerted on a given area). • A vacuum is empty space= It has no pressure Pressure Simulation
Atmospheric Pressure • The gases in the air are exerting a pressure called atmospheric pressure • Atmospheric pressure is a result of the fact that air has mass and is colliding with everything under the sun with a force.
Atmospheric Pressure • Atmospheric pressure varies with altitude • The lower the altitude, the longer and heavier the column of air above an area of the earth. • Check the back of a box of cake mix for the difference in baking times based on the atmospheric pressure in your region.
Atmospheric Pressure • Knowing atmospheric pressure is how forecasters predict the weather. • Low pressure or dropping pressure = a change of weather from fair to rain. • High pressure = clear skies & sun.
Pressure is measured with a device called a barometer.(They operate on the change of pressure due to the weather)
Barometer • At 1 atm (one atmospheric pressure) a column of mercury 760 mm high. 1 atm Pressure Column of Mercury Dish of Mercury
Barometer • At 1 atm a column of mercury 760 mm high. • A 2nd unit of pressure is mm Hg (mercury) 1 atm = 760 mm Hg • A 3rd unit & the SI unit is the Pascal (Pa) 1 atm = 101.3 kPa 1 atm Pressure 760 mm
Measured in atmospheres (atm). • 1atm = 760 millimeters Hg (Barometers use Hg) • 1atm = 760 torr (Named after Torricelli for the invention of the barometer) • 1atm = 101.3 kPa – kilopascals • 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 101.3 kPa
Practice: Convert 4.40 atm to mmHg. Convert 212.4kPa to mmHg.
Temperature (T) • 3. Temperature (T) – as temperature increases gas particles move faster, as temperature decreases gas particles move slower. • measured with a thermometerin Celsius. • calculations involving gases are made after converting the Celsius to Kelvin temperature. • Measured in Kelvin (K). Kelvin = 273 + C Celsius = K - 273
Practice: Convert 32.0°C to K. Convert 400. K to °C.
Amount (n) 4. Number of Moles – tells you how much of a certain gas you have 1 mole = number of grams of the compound or element (molar mass) 6.02 x 1023 molecules per mole of the gas.
STP – “standard temperature and pressure”.( Measured at Sea Level) • Standard Temperature0C= 273 K • Standard Pressure 1.00atm= 760 torr = 760 mmHg = 101.325 kPa
Gas Laws - How do all of pressure, temperature, volume, and amount of a gas relate to each other? Combined GAS Law(Initial) (Final) Peas x Vegetables P1 x V1 = P2 x V2 Table T1 T2
Rules for solving gas law problems: • 1st write down what is given and what is unknown, • 2nd identify the gas law you want to use, and • 3rd rearrange the formula to solve for the unknown and • 4th solve the problem. (If temperature is involved, it MUST be converted to Kelvin! K = 273 + C)
A. Boyle’s Law - Pressure and Volume (when temperature remains constant) V1 = initial or old volume V1P1 = V2P2 V2 = final or new volume P1 = initial or old pressure P2 = final or new pressure
