    Study Notes

    Gases

    • Elements that exist as gases at 25°C and 1 atmosphere are:
      • Hydrogen (H₂)
      • Nitrogen (N₂)
      • Oxygen (O₂)
      • Fluorine (F₂)
      • Chlorine (Cl₂)
      • Helium (He)
      • Neon (Ne)
      • Argon (Ar)
      • Krypton (Kr)
      • Xenon (Xe)
      • Radon (Rn)

    Physical Characteristics of Gases

    • Gases assume the volume and shape of their containers.
    • Gases are the most compressible state of matter.
    • Gases will mix evenly and completely when confined to the same container.
    • Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids.

    Pressure

    • Pressure is defined as force exerted per unit area.
    • Units of pressure:
      • SI unit: Pascal (Pa)
      • 1 Pa = 1 N/m²
      • 1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr
      • 1 atm = 101,325 Pa = 101.325 kPa

    Gas Laws

    • Boyle's Law: The volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temperature varies inversely with applied pressure.
      • Mathematical representation: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ (T and n are constant)
    • Charles's and Gay-Lussac's Law: The volume of a given amount of gas held at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
      • Mathematical representation: V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ (P and n are constant)
      • Temperature must be in Kelvin: T(K) = t(°C) + 273.15
    • Amonton's Law: The pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
      • Mathematical representation: P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ (V and n are constant)
    • Avogadro's Law: The volume of a given amount of gas held at constant temperature and pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas.
      • Mathematical representation: V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

    Ideal Gas Equation

    • Combines Boyle's, Charles's, and Avogadro's Laws:
      • PV = nRT
      • R is the ideal gas constant: 0.082057 L atm/(mol K)
      • Standard temperature and pressure (STP) is defined as 0°C (273.15 K) and 1 atm.
      • At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.414 L.

    Gas Density Calculations

    • Density (d) of a gas is calculated using:
      • d = (PM) / (RT)
      • Molar mass (M) can be calculated from: M = (dRT) / P

    Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures

    • The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas.
      • Ptotal = P₁ + P₂
      • V and T of the gases must be constant.
