Gases (Vapors) Gases expand to fill any container. Therefore, gases are highly compressible.
Kinetic Molecular Theory (of an Ideal Gas): 1. Gases are composed of molecules or atoms whose size is negligible compared to the average distance between them. (Most of the space in the gas container is empty.) 2. Gas molecules move randomly in straight lines in all directions at various speeds. 3. The forces of attraction or repulsion between gas molecules are very weak or negligible (except during collisions) 4. Collisions between gas molecules are considered elastic. 5. The average kinetic energy of a molecule is proportional to the absolute temperature.

Temperature and Volume: Charles’s Law How is the volume of a gas related to its temperature? moveable mass (constant pressure) gas molecules The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its Temperature (temperature must be in Kelvin) Charles’s Law: V1/T1 = V2/T2
Combined Gas Law (Boyle and Charles): T must be in Kelvin Can be rearranged to: P1V1T2 = P2V2T1 A combined gas law problem can be recognized by having two sets of conditions. Note: if one set of parameters is unchanged that term will cancel on each side.

A 2.50 gram sample of a solid was vaporized in a 505 mL vessel. If the vapor pressure of the solid was 755 mmHg at 155 oC, what is the molecular weight of the solid? molecular weight ~ molar mass = g/mol = g mol ..so if we can find grams and moles and divide.... ...we already have grams!! We’re halfway there! P = V = n = R = T = 755 torr n = PV RT 0.505 L = 755 torr | 0.505 L | mol•K_____|______ | 62.4 L•torr | 428 K 62.4 L•torr mol•K = 0.01428 mol 155 + 273 = 428 K NOW: 2.50 g = g 0.01428 mol mol 175.1
So Density is g/L (g ÷ L) and molar mass is g/mol (g ÷ mol).

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures: Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 +... Since they are considered to be ideal gases, the attractions and repulsions between molecules are ignored. ... and... PV=nRT so: PV = (n1 + n2 + n3)RT or: We also refer to mole fractions:
To find the gas pressure, the pressure of the water vapor must be subtracted from the total pressure.

Molecular Speeds: K.E. = ½ mv2 Average kinetic energy of a gas molecule: = ½ m2 Where = the rms (root-mean-square) speed of the molecules at each temperature. From kinetic-molecular theory: At any given temperature the molecules of all gases have the same average kinetic energy. Which molecules travel faster, big or little?
At room temperature, the average speed of an N2 molecule is ........ 1150 mi/hr
Molecular diffusion and effusion: Diffusion: “gas molecules spreading out to fill a room are diffusing.” Its not easy since an average gas molecule at room temperature and pressure will experience about 10 billion collisions per second! It only travels about 60 nm between collisions!
Effusion: “A Helium filled balloon loses He by effusion.” escaping molecule Small hole or pore
Which molecules will effuse faster from this semiporous container? Graham’s Law of effusion: effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. For 2 gases:
r = rate of effusion u = root mean speed (~average speed) of molecules M = molar mass Compare the rates of effusion of He and N2. He effuses 2.65 times as fast as N2.
