Chapter 14
From last chapter… Kinetic Molecular Theory
• Particles in an ideal gas…– have no volume.– have elastic collisions. – are in constant, random, straight-line
motion.– don’t attract or repel each other.– have an avg. KE directly related to Kelvin
temperature.
Real Gases
• Particles in a REAL gas…– have their own volume– attract each other
• Gas behavior is most ideal…– at low pressures– at high temperatures– in nonpolar atoms/molecules
Properties of Gases
• Compressibility – gases are easily compressed because of the space between the particles in a gas
• Gases expand to take the shape and volume of their container
Factors Affecting Gas Pressure• Amount of gas – more particles have more collisions
with the container walls and thus create more pressure
• Volume – if you reduce the volume of the container, the particles are more compressed and exert a greater pressure on the walls of the container
• Temperature – increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of the particles, which then strike the walls of the container with more energy

14.4 - Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures
• The partial pressure of a gas is the pressure that the gas would exert if it were alone in the container.
• Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures says that the total pressure of a mixture of gas is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of all gases in the mixture. Or,
Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 +…Note: you can calculate the partial pressures of the gases if they
behave ideally using the ideal gas law (P = nRT/V)
Dalton’s Law Example
• A 2.0 L flask contains a mixture of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas at 25°C. The total pressure of the gaseous mixture is 0.91 atm, and the mixture is known to contain 0.050 mol of N2. Calculate the partial pressure of oxygen and the moles of oxygen present.
Graham’s Law of Effusion
• Diffusion is the tendency of molecules to move toward areas of lower concentration until the concentration is uniform throughout
• Effusion is when a gas escapes through a tiny hole in its container
• Gases of lower molar mass diffuse and effuse faster than gases of higher molar mass
Graham’s Law of Effusion
• The rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the gas’s molar mass.
• This equation compares effusion rates for two gases
Graham’s Law Problem
• Calculate the ratio of the velocity of hydrogen molecules (H2) to the velocity of carbon dioxide (CO2) molecules at the same temperature.
Gas Stoichiometry
• Molar volume of a gas is the volume that is occupied by 1 mol of an ideal gas at STP.–1 mol of gas occupies 22.4 L
• Yes, we are going back to those 3 step problems…
