Pressure: the force that acts on a given area. Gases exert a pressure on any surface
they contact.http://www.mhhe.com/physsci/chemistry/essentialchemistry/flash/gasesv6.swf Standard pressure (at sea level): 1.01x105 Pascals = 101 kPa = 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr
Standard Temperature: 0oC = 273 Kelvin
Standard Temperature and Pressure =

conditions of temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules
a mole of gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L
Avogadro’s Law
The volume of a gas at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas

Problem 6
A series of measurements are made to determine the molar mass of an unknown gas. First, a large flask is evacuated and found to weight 134.567 g. It is then filled with the gas to a pressure of 735 torr at 31oC and reweighed. Its mass is now 137.456 g. Finally, the flask is filled with water at 31oC and found to weigh 1067.9 g. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas.
(The density of the water at this temperature is 0.997 g/mL)
Gas Mixtures and Partial Pressures
partial pressure: the pressure exerted by an individual gas in a mixture of gases
Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures: the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were present alone.
Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + …
mole fraction: the ratio of moles of one gas to the total moles of gas in a mixture
X1 = n1/nt
Each gas in a mixture behaves independently of all the other gases in the mixture and obeys the ideal gas law.
Example 1
A mixture of 9.00 g oxygen, 18.0 g argon and 25.0 g of carbon dioxide exerts a pressure of 2.54 atm. What is the partial pressure of argon in the mixture?
