GASES
Gases are one of the most pervasive aspects of our environment on the Earth. We continually exist with constant exposure to gases of all forms. The steam formed in the air during a hot shower is a gas. The Helium used to fill a birthday balloon is a gas. The oxygen in the air is an essential gas for life.

GASES

A windy day or a still day is a result of the difference in pressure of gases in two different locations. A fresh breeze on a mountain peak is a study in basic gas laws.

Important Characteristics of Gases

1) Gases are highly compressible
An external force compresses the gas sample and decreases its volume, removing the external force allows the gas volume to increase.

2) Gases are thermally expandable

When a gas sample is heated, its volume increases, and when it is cooled its volume decreases.

3) Gases have high viscosity

Gases flow much easier than liquids or solids.

4) Most Gases have low densities

Gas densities are on the order of grams per liter whereas liquids and solids are grams per cubic cm, 1000 times greater.

5) Gases are infinitely miscible

Gases mix in any proportion such as in air, a mixture of many gases.

Kinetic Molecular Theory

To fully understand the world around us requires that we have a good understanding of the behavior of gases. The description of gases and their behavior can be approached from several perspectives. The Gas Laws are a mathematical interpretation of the behavior of gases. However, before understanding the mathematics of gases, a chemist must have an understanding of the conceptual description of gases. That is the purpose of the Kinetic Molecular Theory.

 The Kinetic Molecular Theory is a single set of descriptive characteristics of a substance known as the Ideal Gas. All real gases require their own unique sets of descriptive characteristics. Considering the large number of known gases in the World, the task of trying to describe each one of them individually would be an awesome task. In order to simplify this task, the scientific community has decided to create an imaginary gas that approximates the behavior of all real gases. In other words, the Ideal Gas is a substance that does not exist. The Kinetic Molecular Theory describes that gas. While the use of the Ideal Gas in describing all real gases means that the descriptions of all real gases will be wrong, the reality is that the descriptions of real gases will be close enough to correct that any errors can be overlooked.

Kinetic Molecular Theory

The Nature of Gases

Three basic assumptions of the kinetic theory as it applies to gases: 1. Gas is composed of particles- usually molecules or atoms Small, hard spheres Insignificant volume; relatively far apart from each other No attraction or repulsion between particles

The Nature of Gases 2. Particles in a gas move rapidly in constant random motion
Move in straight paths, changing direction only when colliding with one another or other objects Average speed of O2 in air at 20 oC is an amazing 1660 km/h! (1.6km=1mile)

The Nature of Gases

3. Collisions are perfectly elasticmeaning kinetic energy is transferred without loss from one particle to another- the total kinetic energy remains constant Newtonian CradleWhere the collisions between the balls elastic? Yes, because kinetic energy was transferred with each collision

 Why did the balls eventually stop swinging? The collisions were not perfectly elastic, some kinetic energy was lost as heat during each collision. At constant temperatures and low to moderate pressures, collisions between gas particles are perfectly elastic

THE KINETIC THEORY OF GASES

Remember the assumptions
Gas consists of large number of particles (atoms or molecules) Particles make elastic collisions with each other and with walls of container There exist no external forces (density constant) Particles, on average, separated by distances large compared to their diameters No forces between particles except when they collide

What happens to a ball when it drops?

Which The potential is energyinto Which isconverted converted of to the potential ball energy the potential energy of in the ball the ball..

..but in reality the ball loses height and eventually stops bouncing

Is converted Which is converted to kinetic to kinetic energy energy in the ball in the ball

Why does this happen?

How does the bouncing ball lose energy?

Through friction with the air (air resistance) Through sound when it hits the floor Through deformation of the ball Through heat energy in the bounce

IDEAL GAS MODEL

The gas consists of objects with a defined mass and zero volume. The gas particles travel randomly in straight-line motion where their movement can be described by the fundamental laws of mechanics. All collisions involving gas particles are elastic; the kinetic energy of the system is conserved even though the kinetic energy among the particles is redistributed. The gas particles do not interact with each other or the with the walls of any container. The gas phase system will have an average kinetic energy that is proportional to temperature; the kinetic energy will be distributed among the particles according to a Boltzmann type of distribution.

Maxwell Distribution. Experiment with Galton board demonstrates the statistical sense of Maxwell distribution.

Ideal Gas Model

Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) for an ideal gas states that all gas particles: are in random, constant, straight-line motion. are separated by great distances relative to their size; the volume of the gas particles is considered negligible. have no attractive forces between them. have collisions that may result in the transfer of energy between gas particles, but the total energy of the system remains constant.

Deviations from ideal behaviour

A real gas is most like an ideal gas when the real gas is at low pressure and high temperature. At high pressures gas particles are close therefore the volume of the gas particles is considered. At low temperatures gas particles have low kinetic energy therefore particles have some attractive force Example Dry ice, liquid oxygen and nitrogen

Ideal Gases
Behave as described by the ideal gas equation; no real gas is actually ideal
Within a few %, ideal gas equation describes most real gases at room temperature and pressures of 1 atm or less In real gases, particles attract each other reducing the pressure Real gases behave more like ideal gases as pressure approaches zero.

Atmospheric Pressure
Weight of column of air above your head. We can measure the density of the atmosphere by measuring the pressure it exerts.

Effect of Atmospheric Pressure on Objects at the Earths Surface

Atmospheric Pressure
Pressure = Force per Unit Area Atmospheric Pressure is the weight of the column of air above a unit area. For example, the atmospheric pressure felt by a man is the weight of the column of air above his body divided by the area the air is resting on P = (Weight of column)/(Area of base)

Standard Atmospheric Pressure:

1 atmosphere (atm) 14.7 lbs/in2 (psi) 760 Torr (mm Hg) 1013.25 KiloPascals or Millibars (kPa = N/m2)

Pressure Measurement
Torricelli's Barometer

Torricelli determined from this experiment that the pressure of the atmosphere is approximately 30 inches or 76 centimeters (one centimeter of mercury is equal to 13.3 millibars. He also noticed that height of the mercury varied with changes in outside weather conditions.

For climatological and meteorological purposes, standard sea-level pressure is said to be 76.0 cm or 29.92 inches or 1013 millibars

The Nature of Gases Atmospheric pressure results from the collisions of air molecules with objects
Decreases as you climb a mountain because the air layer thins out as elevation increases

Barometer is the measuring instrument for atmospheric pressure; dependent upon weather

Converting Units of Pressure

Problem: A chemist collects a sample of carbon dioxide from the decomposition of limestone (CaCO3) in a closed end manometer, the height of the mercury is 341.6 mm Hg. Calculate the CO2 pressure in torr, atmospheres, and kilopascals. Plan: The pressure is in mmHg, so we use the conversion factors from Table 5.2(p.178) to find the pressure in the other units. Solution: converting from mmHg to torr: PCO2 (torr) = 341.6 mm Hg x 1 torr = 341.6 torr 1 mm Hg converting from torr to atm: 1 atm = 0.4495 atm PCO2( atm) = 341.6 torr x 760 torr converting from atm to kPa: PCO2(kPa) = 0.4495 atm x 101.325 kPa = 45.54 kPa 1 atm

Change in Pressure

Change in average atmospheric pressure with altitude.

The Nature of Gases

Gas Pressure defined as the force exerted by a gas per unit surface area of an object
Due to: a) force of collisions, and b) number of collisions No particles present? Then there cannot be any collisions, and thus no pressure called a vacuum

Manometers
Manometers measure a pressure difference by balancing the weight of a fluid column between the two pressures of interest

Rules of thumb:
When evaluating, start from the known
pressure end and work towards the unknown end At equal elevations, pressure is constant in the SAME fluid When moving down a manometer, pressure increases When moving up a manometer, pressure decreases Only include atmospheric pressure on open ends

The Gas Laws

What would Polly Parcel look like if she had no gas molecules inside?
zero molecules = zero pressure inside zero pressure inside = zero force on the inside

Gas Law Variables

In order to describe gases, mathematically, it is essential to be familiar with the variables that are used. There are four commonly accepted gas law variables

Temperature Pressure Volume Moles

Temperature
The temperature variable is always symbolized as T. It is critical to remember that all temperature values used for describing gases must be in terms of absolute kinetic energy content for the system. Consequently, T values must be converted to the Kelvin Scale. To do so when having temperatures given in the Celsius Scale remember the conversion factor Kelvin = Celsius + 273 According to the Kinetic Molecular Theory, every particle in a gas phase system can have its own kinetic energy. Therefore, when measuring the temperature of the system, the average kinetic energy of all the particles in the system is used. The temperature variable is representing the position of the average kinetic energy as expressed on the Boltzmann Distribution.

Pressure
The pressure variable is represented by the symbol P. The pressure variable refers to the pressure that the gas phase system produces on the walls of the container that it occupies. If the gas is not in a container, then the pressure variable refers to the pressure it could produce on the walls of a container if it were in one. The phenomenon of pressure is really a force applied over a surface area. It can best be expressed by the equation

Pressure
Consider the Pressure equation and the impact of variables on it. The force that is exerted is dependent upon the kinetic energy of the particles in the system. If the kinetic energy of the particles increases, for example, then the force of the collisions with a given surface area will increase. This would cause the pressure to increase. Since the kinetic energy of the particles is increased by raising the temperature, then an increase in temperature will cause an increase in pressure. If the walls of the container were reduced in total surface area, there would be a change in the pressure of the system. By allowing a given quantity of gas to occupy a container with a smaller surface area, the pressure of the system would increase.

Pressure
As this container of gas is heated, the temperature increases. As a result, the average kinetic energy of the particles in the system increases. With the increase in kinetic energy, the force on the available amount of surface area increases. As a result, the pressure of the system increases. Eventually,......................... .Ka-Boom

Volume
The Volume variable is represented by the symbol V. It seems like this variable should either be very easy to work with or nonexistent. Remember, according to the Kinetic Molecular Theory, the volume of the gas particles is set at zero. Therefore, the volume term V seems like it should be zero. In this case, that is not true. The volume being referred to here is the volume of the container, not the volume of the gas particles. The actual variable used to describe a gas should be the amount of volume available for the particles to move around in. In other words

Volume
Since the Kinetic Molecular Theory states that the volume of the gas particles is zero, then the equation simplifies. As a result, the amount of available space for the gas particles to move around in is approximately equal to the size of the container. Thus, as stated before, the variable V is the volume of the container.

Moles
The final gas law variable is the quantity of gas. This is always expressed in terms of moles. The symbol that represents the moles of gas is n. Notice that, unlike the other variables, it is in lower case. Under most circumstances in chemistry, the quantity of a substance is usually expressed in grams or some other unit of mass. The mass units will not work in gas law mathematics. Experience has shown that the number of objects in a system is more descriptive than the mass of the objects. Since each different gas will have its own unique mass for the gas particles, this would create major difficulties when working with gas law mathematics. The whole concept of the Ideal Gas says that all gases can be approximated has being the same. Considering the large difference in mass of the many different gases available, using mass as a measurement of quantity would cause major errors in the Kinetic Molecular Theory. Therefore, the mole will standardize the mathematics for all gases and minimize the chances for errors.

Conclusions
There are four variables used mathematically for describing a gas phase system. While the units used for the variables may differ from problem to problem, the conceptual aspects of the variables remain unchanged. 1. T, or Temperature, is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the system and MUST be expressed in the Kelvin Scale. 2. P, or Pressure, is the measure of the amount of force per unit of surface area. If the gas is not in a container, then P represents the pressure it could exert if it were in a container. 3. V, or Volume, is a measure of the volume of the container that the gas could occupy. It represents the amount of space available for the gas particles to move around in. 4. n, or Moles, is the measure of the quantity of gas. This expresses the number of objects in the system and does not directly indicate their masses.

Gas Laws
(1) When temperature is held constant, the density of a gas is proportional to pressure, and volume is inversely proportional to pressure. Accordingly, an increase in pressure will cause an increase in density of the gas and a decrease in its volume. Boyless Law (2) If volume is kept constant, the pressure of a unit mass of gas is proportional to temperature. If temperature increase so will pressure, assuming no change in the volume of the gas. (3) Holding pressure constant, causes the temperature of a gas to be proportional to volume, and inversely proportional to density. Thus, increasing temperature of a unit mass of gas causes its volume to expand and its density to decrease as long as there is no change in pressure. - Charless Law
