Aim 5: How can you describe Gay- Lussac’s Law?

Gay-Lussac’s Law Discovered in 1802 by Joseph Gay-Lussac

The tank contains a gas ……..

How much propane is in the tank? Propane tanks are widely used with barbeque grills. But it’s not fun to find out half-way through your grilling that you’ve run out of gas. You can buy gauges that measure the pressure inside the tank to see how much is left. The gauge measures pressure and will register a higher pressure on a hot day than it will on a cold day. So you need to take the air temperature into account when you decide whether or not to refill the tank before your next cook-out.

Suppose a gas is kept in a closed, rigid container Suppose a gas is kept in a closed, rigid container. If the temperature of the gas is increased, what happens ?

Constant Volume:

Volume and number of particles are constant

What happens when you increase the temperature of the container? Increase Pressure increase average velocity of the particles Increased collision Increased rate of collision Increased pressure Increased kinetic energy

At a Constant Volume

At a Constant Volume

Think about a SCUBA tank where volume is constant Think about a SCUBA tank where volume is constant. What happens to the molecular kinetics inside of it when you heat the tank? Since the particles are moving faster the number of collisions with the side of the tank increases, increasing the pressure.

1. Gay-Lussac Law For a gas confined at a constant volume, the pressure and temperature are directly related.

2. Directly Proportional: PRESSURE Temperature

“At constant Volume” P1V1 = P2 V2 T1 T2 P1 = P2 T1 T2

Tell some units of pressure Atm Kpa mmHg Torr

How do yo change 300 Kpa to atm? 300 Kpa x 1atm 101.3 KPA

Why use kelvin scale for gas law?

How do you change 100 degrees Celsius to Kelvin? Table T K= OC +273

 When you multiply or divide, how do you determine the number of significant figures in your answer? 300. X 2350 = 3 SF 1200 x 40 =1 SF

1. Determine the pressure change when a constant volume of gas at 1 1. Determine the pressure change when a constant volume of gas at 1.00 atm is heated from 20.0 °C to 30.0 °C. P1 = P2 T1 T2 Data P1= 1.00 atm (3 sf) T1 = 20.0 °C = 293.0 K (1 decimal) P2 = ? T2 = 30.0 °C = 303.0 K (1 decimal)

1st Method: replace the data in the formula

P1 = P2 T1 T2 Data P1= 1.00 atm P2 = ? T1 = 293.0 K T2 = 303.0 K 1.00 atm = P2 293.0 K 303.0 K P2= 1.03 atm

2nd Method: Practice algebra! Solve P2

P1 = P2 T1 T2 P2 = P1 T2 T1 P2 = 1.00 atm x 303.0 K 293.0 K P2 = 1.03 atm

I prefer that you use the first method :.)

What does STP mean in a pressure and temperature question? Use table A to answer this question.

2. A gas has a pressure of 0. 370 atm at 50. 0 °C 2. A gas has a pressure of 0.370 atm at 50.0 °C. What is the pressure at standard temperature? Data P1= 0.370 atm T1 = 50.0 °C = 323.0 K P2 = ? T2 = 273 K (at standard temperature : table A)

P2 = P1 T2 T1 P2 = 0.370 atm x 273 K 323 K P2 =0.313 atm

Data P1= 15.0 atm T1 = 25 °C = 298 K P2 = 16.0 atm T2 = 3. If a gas in a closed container is pressurized from 15.0 atmospheres to 16.0 atmospheres and its original temperature was 25.0 °C, what would the final temperature of the gas be? Data P1= 15.0 atm T1 = 25 °C = 298 K P2 = 16.0 atm T2 =

T2 = P2T1 P1 T2 = 16.0 atm x 298 K 15 atm T2 = 317. 87 K

What is a pressure of 101.3 Kpa equal to in mmHg?

4. A gas has a pressure of 699. 0 mm Hg at 40. 0 °C 4. A gas has a pressure of 699.0 mm Hg at 40.0 °C. What is the temperature at standard pressure? Data P1= 699.0 mm Hg T1 = 40.0 °C = 313 K P2 = 760.0 mm Hg (at standard pressure) T2 = ? *1 atm= 101.3 Kpa= 760 mm Hg

P1 = P2 T1 T2 T2 = P2T1 P1 T2 = 760 mm Hg x 313 K 2sf 3sf 699.0 mm Hg 4 sf T2 = 340 K (2sf)

5. If a gas is cooled from 323. 0 K to 273 5. If a gas is cooled from 323.0 K to 273.15 K and the volume is kept constant what final pressure would result if the original pressure was 750.0 mm Hg? Data P1= 750.0 mm Hg T1 = 320 K P2 = ? T2 = 273.15 K

P2 = P1 T2 T1 P2 = 750.0 mm Hg x 273.15 K 320 K P2 = 640 mm Hg
