The Behavior of Gases
Kinetic Theory
• Kinetic Theory – all molecules are in
constant motion.
– Collisions between gas molecules are perfectly
elastic.
• Diffusion – movement of molecules from
areas of high concentration to low
concentration.
• Rate of diffusion – the size and mass of the
molecule.
– Smaller, lighter molecules move faster.
Pressure
• Gas pressure – due to collisions of gas
molecules on an object.
• Atmospheric pressure – due to collisions of
air molecules on an object.
– 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 30 in Hg = 14.7 psi
• Partial pressure – the portion of pressure
that one gas contributes to the total
pressure in a mixture of gases.
Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure
• The total pressure of a mixture of gases is
equal to the sum of the partial pressures.
• PT = P1 + P2 + P3
• Pair = PN2 + PO2 + PCO2
Pressure vs. Moles
(at constant volume)
• Same volume containers at constant
temperature:
• If 1 mole of gas exerts 1 atm of pressure
and we add another mol of gas twice as
many particle will have twice as many
collisions exert twice the pressure
(2atm)

Pressure vs. Volume
(at constant Temperature)
- As volume decreases, the pressure
increases proportionally.
- As volume increases, the pressure
decreases proportionally.
- As one goes up, the other goes down: P
and V are Inversely Proportional.
- P1V1 = P2V2
Boyle’s Law
• For a given mass of gas, at
constant temperature, the pressure
of the gas varies inversely with the
volume.
P1V1 = P2V2
Volume vs. Temperature
(at constant Pressure)
Start with 1 L of gas at
100 K and 1 atm.
K = oC + 273
Heat the gas the
molecules speed up
and hit the top,
pushing it to
maintain constant pressure.
200 K = 2 L
2x T 2x V
T= V
Volume vs. Temperature
(at constant Pressure)
Start with 1 L of gas at
100 K and 1 atm.
K = oC + 273
Cool the gas the
molecules slow
down, fewer
collisions w/the
top so it falls.
50 K = ½ L
½x T ½x V
T= V
Charles’ Law
• For a given mass of gas, at
constant pressure, the volume of
the gas varies directly with its
Kelvin temperature.
V1T2 = V2T1
Pressure vs. Temperature
(at constant volume)
Start w/ 1 L at 100 K
and 1 atm.
Heat the gas the
moles speed up and
increase the # of collisions,
which increases the
2x T = 2x P
pressure.
T = P
Pressure vs. Temperature
(at constant volume)
Start w/ 1 L at 100 K
and 1 atm.
Cool the gas the
moles slow down and
decrease the # of
collisions,which
decreases the pressure.
½x T = ½x P
T = P
Gay-Lusaac’s Law
• For a given mass of gas, at
constant volume, the pressure of
the gas varies directly with its
Kelvin temperature.
P1T2 = P2T1
Combined Gas Law
• Combines Boyle’s, Charles’, and GayLusaac’s Laws into one equation.
•P1V1T2 = P2V2T1
• When using the combined gas law,
UNIT MUST AGREE and all
temperatures must be in Kelvin.
Moles Meets Gas Laws
• We know that the volume of a gas is
proportional to its number of particles and
the pressure of a gas is proportional to its
number of particles, which means:
• V~ # mol and P ~ # mol
or
V~n
and P ~ n
Moles Meets Gas Laws
• We also know that if the temperature of a
gas increases, its pressure increases and if
the temperature of a gas increases, its
volume increases. This means:
• T ~ P and T ~ V
• so we can write PV ~ nT
Moles Meet Gas Laws
• In order to make this proportion useful as a
mathematical expression we can derive a
constant by solving PV/nT using the values
for 1 mole of a gas at STP. This constant
will be called “R”.
• Substituting into the equation we get:
( 1 atm) ( 22.4 L)
( 1 mol) ( 273 K)
= .0821 atm L = R
mol K
Ideal Gas Law
• PV = nRT
• When using this equation, units MUST be
the same as those of the R value therefore:
– Pressure must be in ________
atm
L
– Volume must be in _____
– n must be in ________
mol
K
– Temperature must be in _____
The Ideal Gas Law applies to real and
Ideal gases under ALL conditions.

Real vs. Ideal Gases
• Ideal Gas
• Real Gas
• Follows the gas laws
at all conditions of
temp. and pressure.
• Particles are infinitely
small (have no vol.)
• Particles are not
attracted to one
another.
• DO NOT EXIST!
• Do not follow gas
laws at all conditions
of temp. and pressure.
• Particles have
volume.
• Particles may attract
one another when
very close.
Real Gases
• Conditions at which real gases do
NOT behave as ideal gases and
therefore do not obey the gas laws:
1. At extremely high pressures do not
obey Boyle’s Law.
2. At extremely low temperatures do
not obey Charles’ Law.
Reasons:
• This occurs because under these two
conditions the gas molecules are close
enough together that they begin to exert
forces on one another and behave
similarly to a liquid.
• Gas Law equations are still extremely
useful because under common conditions
the behavior of a real gas is the same as
the behavior of an ideal gas.
Density and Molecular Weight
of Gases
• Density (D) = mass/volume = m/V = g/L
• Molecular Weigh (MW) = gram/mol
