Kinetic Theory(Observing Properties of Gases)

•Gases are tiny particles, that have mass but a small volume ▫ (Volume assumed to = 0)

•Gases in constant random motion•Collisions are elastic with walls and each other (No attraction between molecules)

•Kinetic energy (movement) depends on temperature – (high temperature is more movement)

Measuring Gases

•Amount (n)moles (number of)

•Volume (V) liters

•Temperature (T)Kelvin K= C + 273

•Pressure (P)mm Hg or atm

Dalton’s Law of Partial PressuresEach of the components of a gas

mixture contributes some of the collisions

Each component contributes part of the total pressure.

Mathematically..PT = P1 + P2 + P3…..

What is temperature?

•Measure’s average kinetic energy of particles.▫Higher temp means higher energy

More energy means faster particles▫Lower temp means lower energy

Less energy means slower particles

•When particles move faster, they collide more often and with more force.

Temperature and Energy Revisited

•If there are a fixed number of gas particles in a container

•And it has a fixed pressure•What happens when it is heated up?

–The particles go faster–They collide more–The volume goes up

Combined Gas law

Combines •Boyles, •Charles, •Gay-Lussac law

P1V1 = P2V2

T1 T2

Boyles Law(P,V)

At a constant T,N, the volume varies indirectly with the pressure

P1V1 = P2V2

Lab: Boyles Law

•Purpose:To observe changes in

pressure with the volume changes

Charles Law(T,V)

•At a constant P, N the volume varies directly with the Kelvin temperature

V1 = V2

T1 T2

Gay-Lussacs Law(P,T)

At a constant V,N the pressure varies directly with the Kelvin temperature.

P1 = P2

T1 T2

Lab: Pressure/temperature

Purpose: To determine the absolute zero using Gay-Lussac’s Law

Absolute zero demonstration

Temperature at which all molecules stop moving

0 K -273 oC

Avagadro’s Law

•If you hold pressure and temperature constant ▫Like at standard temperature and

pressure Which are?

•Volume and moles are related

V n

Lab: combined gas law

Purpose: To determine the volume of 1 mole of a gas using the combined gas law

Reaction: Hydrochloric acid and Mg

Ideal Gas Law

At STP 1 mole=22.4LIf not at STP use Ideal Gas Law

P V = n R TR=ideal gas constant

(0.0821 L atm ) moles K

Ideal Gas Law•All the gas laws are related.•By the pressure, volume, temperature

and number of particles (moles or n)PV = constantV/T = constantn/V = constantP/T = constant

Gas Proportions•There are four variables in the Gas Laws

▫Pressure▫Volume▫Temperature▫Moles

•We can intuit each gas law using KMT•For example:

▫If moles and temperature are constant▫How does the volume and pressure compare?

Gas Stoichiometry

•C8H18, octane, combusts in your car’s engine. If the cylinder is 0.500 L and the oxygen intake is at 45oC and 1.05 atm, how many grams of octane are needed to completely react with the oxygen?

Gas Collected Over Water

If the water level in the flask is equal to the surrounding water, than the inside pressure is equal to the outside pressure. Pin = PO2 + PH2O = P atmospheric

PH2O = 21 torr

Pressure of Collected Gas

•The vapor pressure of water @ 20.0 C is 17.54 mmHg

•How many mmH2O is this?▫What data do you need?▫Mercury d = 13.7 g./ml▫240. mmH2O

•If 100.0 ml of oxygen is collected over 20.0 C ▫If the atmospheric pressure is 739 mmHg,

what is the pressure of oxygen?▫How many moles of Oxygen gas?▫How many atoms of oxygen

Pressure EqualizationWhich pressure is Higher?

Pressure EqualizationWhich pressure is Higher?

Motion of Gases•At the same temperature, two samples of

gas have the same average kinetic energy•What has more kinetic energy, a bus

moving at 5 mph or a baby on a tricycle moving at 10 mph?

• If mass is important let’s consider molecular motion.

Diffusion•Gases at the same temp have the same

average KE•More massive gases must be moving

slower than less massive gases at the same temp

•If I let out a smelly gas of a flask, how does it get to your nose? What path does it take?

•When a gas spreads out or dissolves into the air, we call this diffusion

Graham’s Law

•The rate of diffusion is directly proportional the speed of the molecule

•The bigger the molecule, the ______ the speed of the molecule (at the same temp)

•The “bigger” really means molar mass.•We can compare rates or velocities

Graham’s Law

va = Mb

vb Ma

The ratio of the velocities of gas molecules is proportional to the Inverse square root of their molar masses

Problem•The rate of diffusion of an unknown gas is

four times faster than the rate of oxygen gas. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas and identify it.

va = 1 = Mb

vb 4 32 g/molMb = 2 What gas has a molar mass of 2?

Dalton’s law

•The total pressure equals the sum of the partial pressures of the gases in the container

PT = P1 + P2 + P3 + ……..

Kinetic Theory Real vs Ideal

Valid if not at Low temperatures

– attractive forces apply

high pressures – volume of particles - attractive forces apply

Questions1. What happens to the energy of the particles of gas

when you put the flask into cold water?2. Why do we use Kelvin when calculating gas law

problems? (Hint – is the Celsius temperature directly proportional to pressure below zero degrees?)

3. Predict the volume of the gas at 0 K from your data. You do this by getting an equation an plugging in the numbers.

4. Compare your answer with the real answer. Why are they different? What could affect your results?

5. A flask has a pressure of 1.0 atm at 25 C. What is the pressure at –40 C? (remember to convert to Kelvins)
