Study Notes
Chemical Properties of Gases
- Volume is the best measurement to use for gases, as it's generally easier, larger, and more precise than mass.
Avogadro's Hypothesis
- Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of particles.
- The number of particles in a mole is 6.02 x 1023 (Avogadro's number).
Molar Volume
- At STP (0°C, 101 kPa), 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 liters.
- At SATP (25°C, 100 kPa), 1 mole of any gas occupies 24.8 liters.
- Molar volume allows conversion between volume and moles (and mass).
Combining Volumes
- In a chemical reaction involving gases, the volumes of reactants and products are in simple whole-number ratios, if temperature and pressure are constant.
- Not all reactants or products need to be gases for the law to apply, but the law only applies to gases.
Ideal Gas Law
- Ideal gases are hypothetical gases where molecules are far apart, have no forces between them, have perfectly elastic collisions, and lose no energy.
- Real gases can behave ideally under specific conditions (low pressure and high temperature).
- The Ideal Gas Law describes the relationship between pressure (P), volume (V), number of moles (n), and temperature (T) of an ideal gas.
- The equation for the ideal gas law is PV = nRT
- R is the universal gas constant and equals approximately 8.314 kPa⋅L/(mol⋅K).
- Often, mass is the starting point in gas law problems. Convert mass to moles, then use the ideal gas law.
- Conversely, you can use the ideal gas law to determine the mass needed, given the volume, pressure and temperature.
Practice Problems
- Sample problems are included to illustrate calculations using molar volume and the ideal gas law. Calculations were provided that demonstrate using the information provided in the problems to solve problems relating volumes, moles and masses of gases.
