Study Notes
Gas Properties and Behavior
- A sample of gas in a rigid cylinder with a movable piston has a constant pressure, and if the Kelvin temperature doubles, the volume of the gas also doubles.
- A gas takes the shape and volume of its container and has neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
Gas Temperature and Energy
- Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a sample of matter.
- A sample of gas confined in a sealed container has a definite temperature, such as 298 K or 267 K.
Ideal Gas Properties
- According to the kinetic molecular theory, the molecules of an ideal gas have no attraction for each other, have significant volume, and move in random, constant, straight-line motion.
- Standard pressure is equal to 1 atm or 101 kPa.
Gas Diffusion and Volume
- Given the same conditions of temperature and pressure, hydrogen (H2) will diffuse most rapidly among the noble gases.
- A sample of H2(g) and a sample of N2(g) at STP contain the same number of molecules, meaning they have the same volume but different masses.
Pressure and Volume Relationships
- As the pressure on a sample of gas increases at constant temperature, the volume of the gas decreases.
- As the temperature of a sample of gas increases at constant pressure, the volume of the gas sample increases.
- If the Kelvin temperature of a gas sample doubles while the pressure is halved, the volume of the gas will increase by four times.
Gas Mixtures and Partial Pressure
- The pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each gas.
- The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture is proportional to its mole fraction in the mixture.
Graphical Representations
- The graph that best represents how the volume of a given mass of a gas varies with the pressure exerted on it at constant temperature is a hyperbola.
- The graph that best represents how the volume of a given mass of a gas varies with the Kelvin temperature at constant pressure is a straight line with a positive slope.
