Gases…..
Have neither shape nor volume
Are highly compressible
Diffuse (move spontaneously throughout any
available space until equally distributed)
Temperature affects either the volume or pressure of a gas or both
Pressure
is defined as a force per unit areaSince force can be measured in NewtonsAnd area can be measured in m2
Then N/m2 is the unit which is the SI definition of a pascal
we measure pressure in kilopascal (kPa)
Pressure
Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted by air on ALL objects
Standard conditions
STP
0 oC101.325 kPa
SATP – more convenient25 0C100kPa

Boyle’s Law
As pressure on a gas increases, the volume of the gas decreases proportionally, provided that that temperature and the chemical amount(moles) of gas remains constant

Temperature
is defined as the average kinetic energy of particles
We usually measure it in oC but for gases we will use the absolute or
Kelvin temperature scaleTo convert from celsius simply add 273

• Combination of Boyles and Charles’ Law and (Gay Lussac)
• Unchanging conditions drop out of the equation• Remember temp MUST be in Kelvin
Molar Volume
Molar volume is the volume that one mole of a gas occupies at a specified temperature and pressure…..At STP 22.4 litres in one mole of a gasAt SATP 24.8 litres in one mole of a gas
How do you convert between moles and volume??
How do you convert between mass and volume….one extra step!
Example problem 1
What is the volume of 0.24moles of CO2 (g) at STP??
Example Problem 2
What is the volume of 6.8g of Hydrogen gas at SATP??
Perform the following conversions (all at SATP).
1. 4.00 mol CH4(g) to L
2. 2.25 mol NO(g) to L
3. 4.275 g CO2(g) to L
4. 1.27 g H2(g) to L
5. 5.00 L O2(g) to mol O2(g)
6. 3.50 L H2(g) to mol H2(g)
7. 4.35 L CH4(g) to g CH4(g)
8. 5.45 L N2(g) to g N2(g)

Ideal Gas Law
What makes an “ideal gas” hypothetically???
They obey ALL gas laws perfectly under ALL conditions
SO….they do not condense
….graphs of v/T and p/T are straight lines
….particle size is negligible with NO intermolecular attractions between them
REAL gases are most ideal when
Pressure is ? LOW Because…..at high pressure molecules are forced
together and their size becomes significant relative to the empty space in container
Temperature is ? HIGH Because…..at low temperature molecules are
closer together, moving slower and thus experience intermolecular attraction (they condense)

R is called the gas constant (combined gas law constants)
R = 8.314 kPa.L mol.K

What is kinetic molecular theory??

Gas PressurePressure = total force applied to a certain area larger force = larger
pressuresmaller area = larger
pressure
• Gas pressure is caused by gas molecules colliding with the container or surface
• More forceful collisions or more frequent collisions mean higher gas pressure
