Physical Characteristics of Gases
• Gases adopt the shape of their containers (fluidity).
• Gases adopt the volume of their containers (Diffusion/compressibility).
• Gases will mix evenly and completely when in the same volume
• Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids.
WF6 gas: 13 g/L
11x heavier than air, but
still >75x less dense
than water
Properties of Gases
DIFFUSION - Uniform spreading of gas molecules
EFFUSION - Movement of gas through small hole
FLUIDITY - Ability to flow and take shape of their
container (liquids and gases)

Pressure of a gas
Pressure = the collision of gas particles with a surface;
force per unit area
As number of collisions
increase, pressure increases
As force of collisions
increase, pressure increases

We need to know:
Kinetic Molecular Theory Summary
1. Gas particles separated from each other by large
distances
2. Gas particles are in constant motion in random
directions, and they frequently collide.
3. Negligible intermolecular forces
4. Kinetic energy is proportional to temperature
(gases at the same temperature will have the
same average KE)
Be able to cite each and know each of their implications
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
1. A gas is composed of molecules that are separated
from each other by large distances far greater than
their own dimensions. The molecules can be
considered to possess mass but have insignificant
volume.
Very low density (molecule per volume)
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
2. Gas molecules are in constant motion in random
directions, and they frequently collide with one
another. Collisions among molecules are perfectly
elastic (don’t lose energy).
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
3. Gas molecules exert neither attractive nor
repulsive forces on one another.
(liquid)
“Negligible intermolecular forces”
Inter = “between”
Molecules too far apart to
effect each other
These bonds only occur
in liquids and solids
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
4. The average Kinetic energy (KE) of the molecules
is proportional to the temperature of the gas
As temperature goes up, KE goes up
KE = ½ mv2
; v2 is average square velocity
As KE goes up, molecule velocity goes up.
Therefore, as Temp ↑, molecule velocity ↑
*Any two gases at the same temperature will
have the same average KE, regardless of size.
Any two gases at the same temperature will have the same

We can compare a two gas mixture with relative speed
at an arbitrary KE value of 5 at given temperature.
Helium gas (4 g/mol) vs Chlorine gas (Cl2; 71 g/mol)
He: 5 = ½ 4*v2
v = 1.6
Cl2: 5 = ½ 71*v2

Cl2 0.38
At this temperature, Helium is moving
4.2 times faster than chlorine gas
Gas diffusion is the gradual mixing of molecules of one gas
with molecules of another by virtue of their kinetic properties.
Because two gases have the same KE at the same

is found to effuse through a porous
barrier in 1.50 min.
It takes an equal volume of bromine
vapor 4.73 min to effuse through the
same barrier (with same conditions).

1 Joule = 1 kg m2/s2
Because our constant (R) uses Joules, which uses kg,
we must express Molar mass in kg. We must also use
Kelvin for temperature.

helium atoms and nitrogen molecules in m/s at 25°C.

1 Joule = 1 kg m2/s2
The molar mass of He is 4.003 g/mol, or 0.004 kg/mol.

Considering 1 J = 1 kg m2/s2, the rest of the units cancel out
At 25°C, helium travels on
average ~3000 mph
Example: Speed of a gas Solution
The procedure is the same for N2, the molar mass of which is 28.02
g/mol, or 2.802 × 10−2 kg/mol so that we write
Escape velocity is the speed where an object’s KE is equal to the
gravitational potential energy. The speed needed to “break-free” of
Earth’s gravity is ~ 11,000 m/s
Earth’s atmosphere has low abundance of H2 & He because the
molecules are light and travel fast enough to escape the Earth’s pull.

Three physical properties can describe
a sample of gas
• Volume
• Pressure
They are each interconnected
with each other – if one changes,
the others must change with it.
• Temperature
There are several scientific gas laws that define
the behavior of gases with these parameters

Boyle’s Law (Pressure-Volume)
As Volume decreases, Collisions
become more frequent in smaller space.
More collisions = more pressure
As Volume ↓; Pressure ↑ or
As Pressure ↓; Volume ↑
P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
Boyle’s Law Practice: P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
Units must be equal on both sides
• If we have 5 L of Nitrogen gas (N2) at 2 atm, what is the
volume if we apply 4 times the pressure?
2 atm x 5 L = 8 atm x V2
V2 = 1.25 L
• Helium gas is found in a container with a volume of 3L
at 4 atm. If the container double in size, what is the
new pressure?
4 atm x 3 L = P2 x 6 L
P2 = 2 atm
Variation in Gas Volume with Temperature

KMT explains this: as
molecules travel faster (at
higher T), Volume would
have to increase to
maintain the same

Avogadro’s Law (Moles of gas)
Constant temperature
Constant pressure
V number of moles (n)
V = constant x n
V∝n
V1 / n 1 = V 2 / n 2
First proposed by Avogadro, 1811:
Gas volume does not depend on
molecule size, only # particles
4 volumes
→
2 volumes
Mass is conserved, but volume is NOT
Avogadro’s Law
Combustion of hydrocarbons (like octane) drive the pistons in
combustion engines from the expansion of gases (CO2 and H2O vapor)
*Potato guns also work based on this.
Typically combustion of alcohols in hairspray.
Candle wax demo
Paraffin wax: a mixture of long hydrocarbons
Remember: Combustion of a hydrocarbon gives CO2 and H2O
2C20H42(s) + 61O2(g) → 40CO2(g) + 42H2O(l)
Conversion of available oxygen gas to CO2 produces less moles
of gas, so there’s a decrease in pressure.
Less pressure inside, causes atmospheric pressure to push the
water up (just like mercury in a barometer)

Example: Ideal Gas #1
Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a colorless and odorless gas.
Due to its lack of chemical reactivity, it is used as an
insulator in electronic equipment.
Calculate the pressure (in atm) exerted by 265.9 grams of
the gas in a steel vessel of volume 5.43 L at 69.5°C.
*Convert grams to moles with MM

Example: Ideal gas #2
Calculate the volume (in L) occupied
by 7.40 g of NH3 at STP
*This relation can only be
used at STP conditions
Or we could use the ideal gas equation where 7.40 g NH3 =
0.435 moles of NH3, and then applying V = nRT/P.
V = (0.435 mol)(0.082057)(273.15 K)

Example: Combined Gas Law #1
Argon is an inert gas used in light bulbs to stop
the vaporization of the tungsten filament.
Electric light bulbs are
usually filled with argon.
A certain light bulb containing argon at 1.20 atm
and 18°C is heated to 85°C at constant volume.
Calculate its final pressure (in atm).
n1 = n2 because bulb is sealed
V1 = V2 because bulb volume does not expand
which is Charles’ law
Example: Combined Gas Law #1 Solution
Next we write
Initial Conditions
Final Conditions
P1 = 1.20 atm
P2 = ?
T1 = (18 + 273) K = 291 K T2 = (85 + 273) K = 358 K
The final pressure is given by
Check At constant volume, the pressure of a given amount of gas is
directly proportional to its absolute temperature. Therefore the increase
in pressure is reasonable.
Example: Combined Gas Law #2
A small bubble rises from the bottom of a lake, where the
temperature and pressure are 8°C and 6.4 atm, to the
water’s surface, where the temperature is 25°C and the
pressure is 1.0 atm.
Calculate the final volume (in mL) of the bubble if its initial
volume was 2.1 mL.
We can remove n

in this problem
Example: Combined Gas Law #2 Solution
The given information is summarized:
Initial Conditions
P1 = 6.4 atm
V1 = 2.1 mL
T1 = (8 + 273) K = 281 K
Rearranging
Final Conditions
P2 = 1.0 atm
V2 = ?
T2 = (25 + 273) K = 298 K
Practice: Combined Gas Law #3
An inflated He balloon at sea level (1.0 atm) with
a V = 7.1 L (basketball) is allowed to rise to a
height of 8.8 km (Mt. Everest), where the pressure
is about 0.33 atm. The change in temperature
drops from 20°C to -30°C.
What is the final volume of the balloon?

Non-Ideal Gas: Effect of intermolecular forces
on the pressure exerted by a gas.
1) At High Pressure, density
increases, and intermolecular forces
are no longer negligible.
2) Molecules slow down at Low
Temperature and lowers KE to
overcome attractive forces

so that the correction terms for pressure and volume are
Example
5.18 Solution
Finally, substituting these values in the van der Waals equation:
The value is 1.5 atm lower than when using the ideal gas equation.
This makes sense as we expect the pressure to be reduced by
added intermolecular forces.
