Gases and Gas Pressure

    

Gases

– constituent atoms and molecules that have little attraction for one another Free to move in available volume

Some properties of gases

 Mixtures are always homogenous Very weak attraction between gas molecules  Identity of neighbor is irrelevant   Compressible – volume contracts when pressure is applied 0.10% of volume of gas is occupied by molecules Exert a measurable pressure on the walls of their container

Gases and Gas Pressure

 Pressure – force exerted per unit area      Force

Pressure

: Unit area SI unit equals Pascal (Pa) 1 Pa = 1 N/m 2 (1 N = 1 (kg•m)/s 2 )  Alternative units Millimeters of mercury (mmHg)  Atmosphere (atm) 1.0 atm = 760 mmHg = 101, 325 Pa 1.0 atm = 760 torr

Atmospheric Pressure

  - pressure created from the mass of the atmosphere pressing down on the earth’s surface Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level – 760 mmHg

Gases and Gas Pressure

   Barometer: long thin mercury filled tube sealed at once end and inverted into a dish of mercury Downward pressure of Hg in column equals outside atmospheric pressure

Measuring Pressure

 

Manometer:

U-tube filled with mercury, with one end connected to the gas – filled container and the other end open to the atmosphere.

  Pgas < Patm; liquid level in the arm connected to the gas-filled cylinder will be higher P gas + P Hg = P atm

Measuring Pressure

 Pgas > Patm; liquid level in the arm connected to the gas – filled cylinder will be lower   Pgas = Patm + PHg (P Hg = the difference in the heights of the two mercury columns)

Example

 What is the pressure of the gas inside the following apparatus (in mm Hg) if the outside pressure is 750 mm Hg? (1 cm Hg = 10 mm Hg)

The Gas Laws

Ideal Gas: A gas whose behavior follows the gas laws exactly.

 The physical properties of a gas can be defined by four variables:

P T

pressure temperature

n V

volume number of moles

Pressure and Volume: Boyle’s Law

 Showing the relationship between pressure and volume  P x V = k (constant value @ specific temp and constant moles of gas)  k = 1.40 x 10 3  V = 1/P (inverse relationship)

Pressure and Volume: Boyle’s Law

 Can predict a new volume of pressure is changed  P 1 V 1 = k = P 2 V 2  P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2

 What will be the new volume of the gas?

Volume and Temperature: Charles’s Law

 Relationship between Volume and Temperature  V = bT (b is a constant)  V / T = b  Can predict the new volume or temperature  (V 1 /T 1 )= (V 2 /T 2 )

Volume and Moles: Avogadro’s Law

 Relationship between volume of gas and number moles of gas  V is directly proportional to n  V = an or V / n = a (a = constant)  Can predict the new volume or new moles of gas at constant pressure and temperature  (V 1 /n 1 ) = (V 2 /n 2 )
