2 The Gas Laws The density of a gas decreases as its temperature increases.

3 Chemical Properties Produce Gases Chemists harness chemical properties to produce a desired gas through chemical reactions. Such as the reaction of zinc and hydrochloric acid.Chemists harness chemical properties to produce a desired gas through chemical reactions. Such as the reaction of zinc and hydrochloric acid.

4 Physical Properties of Gases Gases are compressible and that they assume the shape and volume of any container. Gases are all infinitely soluble in one another. Each of these characteristics can be explained by the distances between the molecules (or atoms) in a gaseous sample.

5 Physical Properties of Gases are affected by temperature and pressure States of matter simulationStates of matter simulation.

6 Collisions of Gas Particles

7 Kinetic Molecular Theory  explains why gases behave as they do  deals with “ideal” gas particles…

8 Kinetic Theory

9 Kinetic Molecular Theory Postulates of the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases 1.Gases consist of tiny particles (atoms or molecules) 2.These particles are so small, compared with the distances between them, that the volume (size) of the individual particles can be assumed to be negligible (zero). 3. The particles are in constant random motion, colliding with the walls of the container. These collisions with the walls cause the pressure exerted by the gas. 4. The particles are assumed not to attract or to repel each other. 5. The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature of the gas.

10 Kinetic Molecular Theory Postulates Evidence 1. Gases are tiny molecules in mostly empty space. The compressibility of gases. 2. There are no attractive forces between molecules. Gases do not clump. 3. The molecules move in constant, rapid, random, straight-line motion. Gases mix rapidly. 4. The molecules collide classically with container walls and one another. Gases exert pressure that does not diminish over time. 5. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to the Kelvin temperature of the sample. Charles’ Law

11 Newton’s First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia) Object at rest tends to stay at rest, and object in motion tends to stay in motion at constant velocity unless object is acted upon by an unbalanced, external force.

18 Characteristics of Gases Gases expand to fill any container. –random motion, no attraction Gases are fluids (like liquids). –no attraction Gases have very low densities. –no volume = lots of empty space Courtesy Christy Johannesson www.nisd.net/communicationsarts/pages/chem

21 Pressure The mercury in the inverted tube is pushed upward by the force of atmospheric pressure pushing down on the surface of the mercury in the dish. The height of the mercury in the tube changes with changing atmospheric pressure. Under conditions of standard atmospheric pressure, the height of the mercury in the tube is 760 mm. (1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr = 1.01325  kPa)The mercury in the inverted tube is pushed upward by the force of atmospheric pressure pushing down on the surface of the mercury in the dish.

22 Collisions cause Pressure The pressure of a gas is caused by the collision of molecules against the sides of the container. The force of the collision against the container can be calculated by Newton’s Second Law of Motion: F=ma. The “F” = force, “m”=mass in kg and “a” is the acceleration in m/s 2.

23 Low Pressure vs. High Pressure inside a System The number of collisions of gas molecules against the wall of the container determines the pressure in the container. Notice the difference in the number of collisions. Figure (a) would have a lower pressure than Figure (b).

24 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 Pascal (Pa) 1 standard atmosphere = 101,325 Pa 1 standard atmosphere = 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr

26 The first device for measuring atmospheric pressure was developed by Evangelista Torricelli during the 17 th century. The device was called a “barometer” Baro = weight Meter = measure Evangelista Torricelli, circa 1644 Measuring Pressure “We live submerged at the bottom of an ocean of air.”
