3. Gases assume the volume and shape of their containers. Gases are the most compressible state of matter. Gases will mix evenly and completely when confined to the same container. (No solubility rules!) Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids. Density of a gas given in g/L (vice g/mL for liquids) Physical Characteristics of Gases NO 2

4. The Perfect Gas Each gas can be described by an equation of state: P = f(T, V, n) Pressure ≡ force / unit area

5. Fig 1.1

6. Heat - the transfer of thermal energy between two bodies that are at different temperatures Energy Changes in Chemical Reactions Temperature - a measure of the thermal energy 90 °C 40 °C greater thermal energy Temperature = Thermal Energy greater temperature (intensive) (extensive)

7. Fig 1.2 Temperature ≡ the direction of thermal energy flow through a thermally conducting rigid wall

8. Thermal equilibrium ≡ no net heat flow between two objects in contact through a diathermic boundary Fig 1.3 Zeroth Law of thermodynamics

15. Perfect Gas Equation Charles’ law: V ∝ T (at constant n and P) Avogadro’s law: V ∝ n (at constant P and T) V ∝V ∝ nT P V = constant · = R nT P P R is the gas constant PV = nRT What is the value of R? Boyle’s law: V ∝ (at constant n and T) P 1

16. PV = nRT The conditions 0 ° C and 1 atm are called standard temperature and pressure (STP). Experiments show that at STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.414 L:

17. Comparison of Molar Volumes at STP One mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.414 L @ STP One mole of various real gases at STP occupy:

19. Fig 1.8 A region of a P-V-T surface of a perfect gas

21. PV = nRT useful when P, V, n, and T do not change Modify equation when P, V, and/or T change: Initial state (1) of gas: Final state (2) of gas: Eqn [1.12] Combined Gas Law
