Not so long ago, in a chemistry lab far far away…
Ideal Gases Ideal gases are imaginary gases that perfectly fit all of the assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory.
Gases consist of tiny particles that are far apart relative to their size.
Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the walls of the container are elastic collisions No kinetic energy is lost in elastic collisions
Ideal Gases (continued)
Gas particles are in constant, rapid motion. They therefore possess kinetic energy, the energy of motion
There are no forces of attraction between gas particles
The average kinetic energy of gas particles depends on temperature, not on the identity of the particle.
The Nature of Gases
Gases expand to fill their containers
Gases are fluid – they flow
Gases have low density
1/1000 the density of the equivalent liquid or solid
Gases are compressible
Gases effuse and diffuse
Pressure
Is caused by the collisions of molecules with the walls of a container is equal to force/unit area SI units = Newton/meter 2 1 atmosphere = 101,325 Pa = 1 Pascal (Pa) 1 atmosphere = 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr 1 atm = 29.92inHg = 14.7 psi = 0.987 bar = 10 m column of water.
Measuring Pressure The first device for measuring atmospheric pressure was developed by Evangelista Torricelli during the 17 th century.
The device was called a “barometer” Baro Meter = weight = measure
An Early Barometer The normal pressure due to the atmosphere at sea level can support a column of mercury that is 760 mm high.

C, 273 Kelvins The molar volume of an ideal gas is 22.42 liters at STP
Converting Celsius to Kelvin
Gas law problems involving temperature require that the temperature be in KELVINS!
Kelvins =
C + 273 ° C = Kelvins - 273
The Combined Gas Law The combined gas law expresses the relationship between pressure, volume and temperature of a fixed amount of gas.

Kelvin temperature is an index of the random motions of gas particles (higher T means greater motion.)
Kinetic Molecular Theory
Particles of matter are ALWAYS in motion
Volume of individual particles is
zero.
Collisions of particles with container walls cause pressure exerted by gas.
Particles exert no forces on each other.

Effusion Effusion : describes the passage of gas into an evacuated chamber.
