  3. Characteristics of Gases • Variables affecting the behavior of gases • Amount = number of moles () • Pressure (P) • Volume (V) • Temperature (T in Kelvin) {PropGases*}

  8. Manometer Used to measure the difference in pressure between atmospheric pressure and that of a gas in a vessel. Pgas = 760 - 6 torrs Pgas = 760 torr Pgas = 760 + 6 torrs

  9. Gas Laws Variables affecting gases: moles (η), pressure (P), volume (V) and Temperature (T) • Boyle’s Law • Compared: P versus V ( & T are held constant). • Charles’s Law • Compared: V versus T ( & P are held constant). • Avogadro’s Law • Compared: Vversusη(P & T are held constant). • Combined Gas Law • Compared: P vs Vvs. T ( is held constant). • Ideal Gas Law • Compared: P vs Vvs. ηvsT (no variable held constant). • Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure • Compared: individual pressures of gases in a mixture

  18. Standard Temperature & Pressure (STP) and Molar Volume • Standard Temperature: 00C or 273K • Standard Pressure: 760 torr (1 atm) At STP the Molar Volume of any gas is 22.4 L (11.1 in)3 or (28.2cm)3 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 part. = gMM = 22.4 L

  19. Standard Temperature & Pressure (STP) and Molar Volume At STP the Molar Volume of any gas is 22.4 L 1 mole = 6.023 x 1023 part. = gMM = 22.4 L H2 = 2.0g O2 = 32.0g CO2 = 44.0 g Problem: At STP, what volume in mL would 75g of CO2 occupy?

  32. Dalton’s Law ofPartial Pressures • The total pressure of a mixture of gases equals the sum of the pressures that each would exert if it were present alone. • In other words, • Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + … • Pair = P N2 + PO2 + PH2O + …

  33. Partial Pressures P of gas P of atm • When one collects a gas over water, there is water vapor mixed in with the gas. • To find only the pressure of the desired gas, one must subtract the vapor pressure of water from the total pressure.

  34. Vapor Pressure of Water • Daltons Law: Ptotal = Pgas + PH2O • To find only the pressure of the desired gas, one must subtract the vapor pressure of water from the total pressure. Pgas = Ptotal - PH2O {Press on can}

  35. Evaporation vs Boiling in terms of Vapor Pressure Patm Patm + + Pvap Pvap Vapor Pressure (v.p. or Pvap) Patm • Caused by the tendency of solids & liquids to evaporate to gaseous form. It is temperature (K.E.) dependent. = Pvap

  36. Stoichiometry with Gases Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) Problem: If 2.0 g of Mg are reacted with excess HCl, what volume of H2 will be produced at 250C and 775 torr? At STP? PV = nRT

  37. Kinetic-Molecular Theory A model that aids in our understanding of what happens to gas particles as environmental variables change. Main Tenets: • Gases consist of large numbers of molecules that are in continuous, random motion. 2.Collisionsbetween gas molecules and between gas molecules and the walls of the container mustbe completely elastic(energy may be transferred between molecules, but none is lost).

  38. Kinetic-Molecular Theory Main Tenets: 3.Attractive and repulsive forces between gas molecules are negligible. 4. The combined volumeof all the molecules of the gasis negligible (excluded volume) relative to the total volume in which the gas is contained.

  39. Kinetic-Molecular Theory Main Tenets: 5. Energy can be transferred between molecules during collisions, but the average kinetic energy of the molecules does not change with time, as long as the temperature of the gas remains constant. @ 100 0C 6. The average kinetic energy (KE=½mv2) of the molecules is proportional to the absolute temperature. {KE T(K)}

  40. Diffusion Effusion Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until equilibrium is reached (homogeneity). The escape (diffusion) of gas molecules through a tiny hole into an evacuated space.

  41. Effect of Molecular Mass on Rate of Effusion and Diffusion Thomas Graham (1846): rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass Kinetic Energy per individual molecule:

  42. Dropper with Br (l) Rate of Diffusion & Effusion Thomas Graham (1846): rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass {BrDiffusion} Comparing the rates of two gases: Graham’s Law of Diffusion and Effusion of Gases {GasDiff}

  43. Effusion and Diffusion • This is the most widespread uranium enrichmentmethod. Uranium is reacted with fluorine to make uranium hexafluoride gas: 235UF6 & 238UF6 • The physical principle is that the diffusion speed of a gas molecule depends on the mass of the molecule: the lighter ones diffuse faster and get through a porous material easier. • In gas diffusion units, uranium-hexafluoride gas diffuses through an etched foil made of either an aluminum alloy or teflon, due to artificially maintained difference in pressure. The lighter molecules(i.e. those containing 235U) get through easier to the other side, therefore the gas accumulating there will be richer in 235U.

  44. Gas Centrifugation The gas centrifuge is essentially a bowl, in which there is a rotor spinning round at a very high speed. The gas (UF6) directed to the centrifuge is forced to spin by the rotor. Due to the centrifugal force the heavier molecules (those which contain 238U) will accumulate near the wall of the bowl, while the lighter molecules containing 235U will stay closer to the center of the centrifuge.  

  45. Boltzmann Distributions The Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution is the statistical distribution of molecular speeds in a gas. It corresponds to the most probable speed distribution in a collisionally-dominated system consisting of a large number of non-interacting particles. {Boltzman Plot}

  46. Kinetic Energy of Gas Molecules Kinetic Energy per individual molecule: ☺ ☺ Kinetic Energy per mole: Combining above equations and solving for velocity we get: • The root-mean square velocity of gases is a very close approximation to the average gas velocity. ☺ • To calculate this correctly: • The value of R = 8.314 kg m2/s2 K mol • Mm= molar mass, and it must be in kg/mol.

  47. The Kinetic-Molecular Theory • Example: What is the root mean square velocity of N2 molecules at room T, 25.0oC? • To calculate this correctly: • The value of R = 8.314 kg m2/s2 K mol • And M must be in kg/mol.

  48. The Kinetic-Molecular Theory Problem: What is the root mean square velocity of He atoms at room T, 25.0oC? You do it! • To calculate this correctly: • The value of R = 8.314 kg m2/s2 K mol • And M must be in kg/mol. GasMW He 4 N2 28 SF6 146 • Can you think of a physical situation that proves He molecules have a velocity that is so much greater than N2 molecules? • What happens to your voice when you breathe He(g) or SF6 (g)?

  49. Ideal vs.Real Gases In the real world, the behavior of gases only conforms to the ideal-gas equation at relatively high temperature and low pressure.
