Bell Work • Which line represents: • Boiling? • Freezing? • Liquid phase? • Solid phase? • Gas phase? • What are the boiling and melting points of this substance?
Kelvin = Celsius + 273 In other words, add 273 to Celsius temperatures to get Kelvin temperatures Temperature Scales (p. 6)
Properties of Gases • Gases are fluids (this just means that they flow) • Gases have low density • Lots of space between molecules • Volume taken up by a gas is mostly empty space • Gases are highly compressible • Gases completely fill their container
Pressure • Pressure = Force per unit of area • Nail vs. dowel • Bottom of a pool • Pressure of a gas is caused by collisions between the molecules • Units for gas pressure: atm (atmospheres) • Also Pa or kPa (Pascales or kiloPascales)
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) • STP means a temperature of 0 °C and a pressure of 1 atm
Kinetic-Molecular Theory • Matter is made up of particles that are in constant random motion • Particles are attracted to each other - Attractions are weaker the farther apart they are • The higher the temperature, the faster the particles move
Kinetic-Molecular Theory • Kinetic-molecular theory says ideal gas particles: • Are in constant, random, straight-line motion • Are very far apart from each other, so the volume of the particles is considered negligible • Have no attractive forces between them • Have collisions that may result in energy transfer, but NOT a loss or gain of energy • Gases are closest to being ideal at high temperatures and low pressures
As we increase the volume of a gas' container, what will happen to the pressure? Gas Laws
As we increase the temperature of a gas, what will happen to the volume of the gas' container (assuming the container is flexible)? Gas Laws
