Study Notes
Gases Overview
- Gases are made up of particles spread far apart, unlike solids or liquids.
- Gas particles move quickly and randomly.
- Particles interact minimally unless they collide.
- Gases fill their containers completely.
Gas Behavior
- Heated gases expand, cooled gases contract.
- Pressure and amount of gas affect behavior.
- Examples include: flat tires, inflated balloons, exercise balls.
Pressure of a Gas
- Gas pressure is caused by collisions of particles with container walls.
- Higher pressure corresponds to more frequent and forceful collisions.
Gas Laws
- Boyle's Law: Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure (at constant temperature).
- Charles's Law: Volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (at constant pressure).
- Gay-Lussac's Law: Pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (at constant volume).
- Avogadro's Law: Volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas (at constant temperature and pressure).
Combined Gas Law
- This law combines Boyle's, Charles's, and Gay-Lussac's laws.
- It describes the relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas.
Ideal Gas Law
- The ideal gas law combines all simple gas laws.
- Formula: PV = nRT
- P = pressure
- V = volume
- n = number of moles
- R = ideal gas constant
- T = temperature (in Kelvin)
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP)
- STP is a standard set of conditions for gas measurements.
- Standard Temperature = 273 K
- Standard Pressure = 1 atm
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures
- The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases in the mixture.
