GASES Chapter 10
The Atmosphere • The atmosphere is a gaseous solution of nitrogen, N2, and oxygen, O2. • The atmosphere both supports life and acts as a waste receptacle for the exhaust gases that accompany many industrial processes leading to many types of pollution, including smog and acid rain.
A Gas • Uniformly fills any container. • Mixes completely with any other gas • Exerts pressure on its surroundings. • Is easily compressed.
Simple barometer invented by Evangelista Torricelli. A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure.
Atmospheric Pressure • Atmospheric pressure results from the mass of the air being pulled toward the center of the earth by gravity--the weight of the air. • At sea level, atmospheric pressure is 760mm. • Atmospheric pressure varies with altitude--at Breckenridge, CO (elevation 9600 ft), the pressure is 520 mm.

Pressure • is equal to force/unit area • SI units = Newton/meter2 = 1 Pascal (Pa) • 1 standard atmosphere = 101,325 Pa • 1 standard atmosphere = 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr

Pressure Unit Conversions • The pressure of a tire is measured to be 28 psi. What would the pressure be in atmospheres, torr, and pascals. • (28 psi)(1.000 atm/14.69 psi) = 1.9 atm • (28 psi)(1.000 atm/14.69 psi)(760.0 torr/1.000atm) = 1.4 x 103 torr • (28 psi)(1.000 atm/14.69 psi)(101,325 Pa/1.000 atm) = 1.9 x 105 Pa
Volume of a gas decreases as pressure increases at constant temperature
P vs V V vs 1/P BOYLE’S LAW DATA
Boyle’s Law* • Robert Boyle -- Irish scientist (1627-1691) • (Pressure)( Volume) = Constant (T = constant) • P1V1 = P2V2 (T = constant) • V 1/P (T = constant) • (*Holds precisely only at very low pressures.) • The temperature and amount of gas must remain unchanged.
A gas that strictly obeysBoyle’s Law is called an ideal gas.
Boyle’s Law Calculations • A 1.5-L sample of gaseous CCl2F2 has a pressure of 56 torr. If the pressure is changed to 150 torr, will the volume of the gas increase or decrease? What will the new volume be? • Decrease • P1 = 56 torr • P2 = 150 torr • V1 = 1.5 L • V2 = ? V1P1 = V2P2 V2 = V1P1/P2 V2 = (1.5 L)(56 torr)/(150 torr) V2 = 0.56 L
Boyle’s Law Calculations • In an automobile engine the initial cylinder volume is 0.725 L. After the piston moves up, the volume is 0.075 L. The mixture is 1.00 atm, what is the final pressure? • P1 = 1.00 atm • P2 = ? • V1 = 0.725 L • V2 = 0.075 L V1P1 = V2P2 P2 = V1P1/V2 P2 = (0.725 L)(1.00 atm)/(0.075 L) P2 = 9.7 atm Is this answer reasonable?
Volume of a gas increases as heat is added when pressure is held constant.
Charles’s Law • Jacques Charles -- French physicist (1746-1823) • The volume of a gas is directly proportional to temperature, and extrapolates to zero at zero Kelvin. • V = bT (P = constant) • y = mx + b b = a proportionality constant
Charles’s Law Temperature must be in Kelvin!!
Charles’s Law Calculations • A 2.0-L sample of air is collected at 298 K and then cooled to 278 K. The pressure is held constant. Will the volume increase or decrease? What will the new volume be? • V1 = 2.0 L • V2 = ? • T1 = 298 K • T2 = 278 K Decrease V1/V2 = T1/T2 V2 = V1 T2/T1 V2 = (2.0 L)(278 K)/(298 K) V2 = 1.9 L
Charles’s Law Calculations • Consider a gas with a a volume of 0.675 L at 35 oC and 1 atm pressure. What is the temperature (in Co) of the gas when its volume is 0.535 L at 1 atm pressure? • V1 = 0.675 L • V2 = 0.535 L • T1 = 35 oC+ 273 = 308 K • T2 = ? V1/V2 = T1/T2 T2 = T1 V2/V1 T2 = (308 K)(0.535 L)/(0.675 L) T2 = 244 K -273 T2 = - 29 oC
At constant temperature and pressure, increasing the moles of a gas increases its volume.

Avogadro’s Law • 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 • y = mx + b • a = proportionality constant • V = volume of the gas • n = number of moles of gas
AVOGADRO’S LAW • Temperature and pressure must remain constant!!
AVOGADRO’S LAW A 12.2 L sample containing 0.50 mol of oxygen gas, O2, at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 25 oC is converted to ozone, O3, at the same temperature and pressure, what will be the volume of the ozone? 3 O2(g) ---> 2 O3(g) (0.50 mol O2)(2 mol O3/3 mol O2) = 0.33 mol O3 V1 = 12.2 L V2 = ? n1 = 0.50 mol n2 = 0.33 mol V1/V2 = n1/n2 V2 = V1 n2/n1 V2 = (12.2 L)(0.33 mol)/(0.50 mol) V2 = 8.1 L
COMBINED GAS LAW What will be the new volume of a gas under the following conditions? V1 = 3.48 L V2 = ? P1 = 0.454 atm P2 = 0.616 atm T1 = - 15 oC + 273 = 258 K T2 = 36 oC + 273 T2= 309 K V1/ V2 = P2 T1/ P1 T2 V2 = V1P1T2/P2T1 V2 = (309 K)(0.454 atm)(3.48 L) (258 K)(0.616 atm) V2 = 3.07 L
Pressure exerted by a gas increases as temperature increases provided volume remains constant.
If the volume of a gas is held constant, then V1 / V2 = 1. Therefore: P1 / P2 = T1 / T2 Pressure and Kelvin temperature are directly proportional.
