Study Notes
Properties of Gases
- Gases expand indefinitely to fill their container.
- Gases have no definite shape, taking the shape of their container.
- Gases are highly compressible due to the large spaces between gas molecules.
- Gases mix evenly and completely when combined in the same container.
- Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids.
The Gas Laws
- Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT, where P = pressure, V = volume, n = moles, R = ideal gas constant (0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1), and T = absolute temperature.
- Boyle's Law: At constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. (P1V1 = P2V2)
- Charles's Law: At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. (V1/T1 = V2/T2)
-
Avogadro's Law: Equal volumes of different gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules (or moles). (V = nk3)
- The molar volume of an ideal gas at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure: 0°C and 1 atm) is 22.4 L.
- Combined Gas Law: P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, relates changes in pressure, volume, and temperature for a fixed amount of gas.
Gas Density
- Gas density (d) is calculated as d = m/V, where m is the mass and V is the volume.
- The density of a gas is directly proportional to its molar mass.
- Gas density increases with increasing pressure and decreases with increasing temperature.
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures
- The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of each component gas. (Pt = PA + PB + PC + ...)
- The partial pressure of a gas is proportional to its mole fraction in the mixture. (PA = XAPt)
- When gases are collected over water, the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressure of the collected gas and the partial pressure of water vapor. (Pt = Pgas + PH2O)
