Kinetic Molecular Theory
Postulates of the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
1.
Gases consist of particles (atoms or molecules) in constant, straight-line
motion.
2.
Gas particles do not attract or repel each other (no interactions). Particles
collide with each other and surfaces elastically. Collisions with walls of
container define pressure (P = F/A).
3.
Gas particles are small, compared with the distances between
them. Hence, the volume (size) of the individual particles can be assumed
to be negligible (zero).
4.
The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is directly proportional
to the Kelvin temperature of the gas
Properties of Gases
Gases expand to fill any container.
– random motion, no attraction
Gases are fluids (like liquids).
– particles flow easily
Gases have very low densities.
– lots of empty space; particles spaced far apart
Gases are easily compressible.
– empty space reduced to smaller volume

Collisions of Gas Particles
Pressure = collisions on container walls
Changing the Size of the Container
• In a smaller container - particles have less
room to move.
• Particles hit the sides of the container more
often.
• This causes an increase in pressure.
• As volume decreases: pressure increases.
Pressure = Force/Area

Boyle’s Law example
A quantity of gas under a pressure of 106.6 kPa has a volume
of 380 cm3. What is the volume of the gas at standard
pressure, if the temperature is held constant?
P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
(106.6 kPa) x (380 cm3) = (101.3 kPa) x (V2)
V2 = 400 cm3

Dalton’s Law
The total pressure of a mixture of gases
equals the sum of the partial pressures
of the individual gases.
Ptotal = P1 + P2 + ...
In a gaseous mixture, a gas’s partial pressure is the one the
gas would exert if it were by itself in the container.
The mole ratio in a mixture of gases determines each gas’s
partial pressure.

Gas Mixtures
and Dalton’s
Law
Gas Collected Over Water
When a H2 gas is collected
by water displacement, the
gas in the collection
bottle is actually a mixture
of H2 and water vapor.
Dalton’s Law
Hydrogen gas is collected over water at 22°C. Find
the pressure of the dry gas if the atmospheric
pressure is 94.4 kPa.
The total pressure in the collection bottle is equal to atmospheric
pressure and is a mixture of H2 and water vapor.
GIVEN:
PH2 = ?
Ptotal = 94.4 kPa
PH2O = 2.6 kPa
WORK:
Ptotal = PH2 + PH2O
94.4 kPa = PH2 + 2.6 kPa
PH2 = 91.8 kPa
Look up water-vapor pressure
on p.10 for 22°C.

kPa. What is the partial pressure of each gas.

Dalton’s Law
Suppose you are given four containers – three filled with noble gases.
The first 1 L container is filled with argon and exerts a pressure of 2 atm.
The second 3 liter container is filled with krypton and has a pressure of
380 mm Hg. The third 0.5 L container is filled with xenon and has a
pressure of 607.8 kPa. If all these gases were transferred into an empty
2 L container…what would be the pressure in the “new” container?
PKr = 380 mm Hg
PAr = 2 atm
V = 1 liter
Pxe
607.8 kPa
V = 3 liters
V = 0.5 liter
Ptotal = ?
V = 2 liters
…just add them up
PKr = 380 mm Hg
PAr = 2 atm
Ptotal = ?
Pxe
607.8 kPa
V = 1 liter
V = 3 liters
V = 0.5 liter
V = 2 liters
Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures
“Total Pressure = Sum of the Partial Pressures”
PT = PAr + PKr + PXe + …
P1 x V 1 =
P 2 x V2
(0.5 atm) (3L) = (X atm) (2L)
PKr = 0.75 atm
P1 x V 1 =
P 2 x V2
(6 atm) (0.5 L) = (X atm) (2L)
Pxe = 1.5 atm
PT = 1 atm + 0.75 atm + 1.5 atm
PT = 3.25 atm
Partial Pressure
A gas is collected over water at 649 torr and 26.00C. If its
volume when collected is 2.99 L, what is its volume at STP?
Use proper sig figs.
(83.1 x 2.99) / 299 = (101.325 x V2) / 273
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
PT = PG + Pw
V2 = ? L
V1 = 2.99 L
T1 = 299 K
T2 = 273 K
PT = 649 torr
P1 = 86.5 kPa – 3.4 kPa = 83.1 kPa
