Gas Laws Chapter 14

Opening thoughts… Have you ever: Seen a hot air balloon? Had a soda bottle spray all over you? Baked (or eaten) a nice, fluffy cake? These are all examples of gases at work! NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU

Properties of Gases You can predict the behavior of gases based on the following properties: NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU Pressure Volume Amount (moles) Temperature Lets review each of these briefly…

NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU Pressure Volume Amount (moles) Temperature You can predict the behavior of gases based on the following properties:

Pressure Pressure is defined as the force the gas exerts on a given area of the container in which it is contained. The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal, Pa. If you’ve ever inflated a tire, you’ve probably made a pressure measurement in pounds (force) per square inch (area). NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU

NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU Pressure Volume Amount (moles) Temperature You can predict the behavior of gases based on the following properties:

Volume Volume is the three-dimensional space inside the container holding the gas. The SI unit for volume is the cubic meter, m 3. A more common and convenient unit is the liter, l. Think of a 2-liter bottle of soda to get an idea of how big a liter is. (OK, how big two of them are…) NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU

NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU Pressure Volume Amount (moles) Temperature You can predict the behavior of gases based on the following properties:

Amount (moles) Amount of substance is tricky. As we’ve already learned, the SI unit for amount of substance is the mole, mol. Since we can’t count molecules, we can convert measured mass (in kg) to the number of moles, n, using the molecular or formula weight of the gas. By definition, one mole of a substance contains approximately x particles of the substance. You can understand why we use mass and moles! NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU

NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU Pressure Volume Amount (moles) Temperature You can predict the behavior of gases based on the following properties:

Temperature Temperature is the measurement with which you’re probably most familiar (and the most complex to describe completely). For these lessons, we will be using temperature measurements in Kelvin, K. NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU The Kelvin scale starts at Absolute 0, which is °C. To convert Celsius to Kelvin, add

How do they all relate? Some relationships of gases may be easy to predict. Some are more subtle. Now that we understand the factors that affect the behavior of gases, we will study how those factors interact. NEXTPREVIOUS MAIN MENU

Properties of Gases Gas properties can be modeled using math. Model depends on— V = volume of the gas (L)V = volume of the gas (L) T = temperature (K)T = temperature (K) –ALL temperatures in the entire chapter MUST be in Kelvin!!! No Exceptions! n = amount (moles)n = amount (moles) P = pressure (atmospheres)P = pressure (atmospheres)

Pressure and Volume: Boyle’s Law How is the pressure applied to a gas related to its volume? Piston Gas molecules Piston Gas molecules Boyle’s Law: P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 Volume is inversely proportional to applied pressure.

Combined Gas Law (Boyle and Charles): T must be in Kelvin Can be rearranged to: P 1 V 1 T 2 = P 2 V 2 T 1 A combined gas law problem can be recognized by having two sets of conditions. Note: if one set of parameters is unchanged that term will cancel on each side.

MAIN MENU When you inflate a tire with a pump, you are adding air, or increasing the amount of air in the tire. This will often result in a slight increase in temperature because a tire is not a controlled environment. Such deviations and quirks will be discussed in class! NEXT
