Chapter 11 Molecular Composition of Gases
2
Avogadro’s Law Equal Volumes of Gases at the Same Temperature & Pressure contain the Same Number of “Particles.”
3
Balloons Holding 1.0 L of Gas at 25º C and 1 atm. Each balloon contains 0.041 mole of gas or 2.5 x 10 22 molecules.
4
Avogadro’s Law For a gas at constant temperature and pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas (at low pressures). V = an a = proportionality constant V = volume of the gas n = number of moles of gas
5
What are the four quantities needed to describe a gas? Pressure Volume Temperature Moles of gas In Chapter 10, which three of these quantities did we vary? Pressure Volume Temperature Now we will consider the moles of gas.
6
Moles of Gas The number of moles of gas will always affect at least one of the other three quantities.
7
Ideal Gas Law 4 Mathematical relationship among 4 pressure, 4 volume, 4 temperature and 4 the number of moles.
8
Ideal Gas Law 4 Mathematical equation coming from the combination of coming from the combination of - Boyle’s Law - Charles’ Law & - Avogadro’s Law
9
Ideal Gas Law 4 An equation of state for a gas. 4 “state” is the condition of the gas at a given time. PV = nRT An Ideal Gas is a hypothetical substance. Ideal Gas Law is an empirical equation.
10
Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT R = proportionality constant R = proportionality constant = ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L atm mol = 0.0821 L atm mol See Table 11-1 on page 342 for additional values for R.
11
Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT Because of the units of R, P = pressure in atm P = pressure in atm V = volume in liters V = volume in liters n = moles n = moles T = temperature in Kelvins T = temperature in Kelvins Holds closely at P < 1 atm Holds closely at P < 1 atm
12
Standard Temperature and Pressure “STP” P = 1 atmosphere T = C
13
Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT If gas is at STP, R = 0.0821 L atm mol R = 0.0821 L atm mol P = 1.00 atm P = 1.00 atm T = 273 Kelvin T = 273 Kelvin Then Then V /n = volume in liters/ mole V /n = volume in liters/ mole = RT/ P = RT/ P = 0.0821 L atm x 273 K = 0.0821 L atm x 273 K mole K mole K 1.00 atm 1.00 atm = 22.4 L/ mole = 22.4 L/ mole
14
Standard Molar Volume of a Gas The volume occupied by one mole of a gas at STP. 22.4 L/ mole
15
A Mole of Any Gas Occupies a Volume of Approximately 22.42 L at STP
16
Problem What is the volume of 77.0 g of nitrogen dioxide at STP?
17
Solution 77.0 g NO 2 x 1 mole NO 2 x 22.4 L 46.01 g NO 2 1 mole 46.01 g NO 2 1 mole = 37. 5 L NO 2
18
Problem What is the mass of 1.33 x 10 4 mL of oxygen gas at STP?
19
Solution 1.33 x 10 4 mL x 1 L x 1 mol 1000 mL 22.4 L 1000 mL 22.4 L x 32.00 g O 2 x 32.00 g O 2 1 mole O 2 1 mole O 2 = 19.0 g O 2
20
Problem At STP, 3 L of chlorine is produced during a chemical reaction. What is the mass of this gas?
21
Solution 3 L x 1 mole x 70.90 g Cl 2 3 L x 1 mole x 70.90 g Cl 2 22.4 L 1 mole Cl 2 22.4 L 1 mole Cl 2 = 9 g Cl 2
22
Problem What pressure, in atmospheres, is exerted by 0.325 mole of hydrogen gas in a 4.08 L container at 35 C? Not at STP!!! Use Ideal Gas Equation!!!
23
Solution: P V = n R T P = nRT/V T (K) = 35 + 273 = 308 K P = 0.325 mole x 0.0821 L atm x 308 K mole K mole K 4.08 L 4.08 L P = 2.01 atm P = 2.01 atm
24
Problem A sample that contains 4.38 mole of a gas at 250 K has a pressure of 0.857 atm. What is the volume?
25
Solution: PV = nRT V = nRT/P V = 4.38 mole x 0.0821 L atm x 250 K mole K mole K 0.857 atm 0.857 atm V = 105 L V = 105 L
26
Molar Mass of a Gas n = # of moles = grams of gas= (m) molar mass molar mass molar mass molar mass
27
P V = n R T P V = (m/molar mass) R T Therefore, molar mass = m R T P V
28
Problem At 28 C and 0.974 atm, 1.00 L of gas has a mass of 5.16 g. What is the molar mass of this gas?
29
Solution molar mass = m R T P V Molar Mass = 5.16 g x 0.0821 L atm x 301 K mole K 0.974 atm x 1.00 L Molar Mass = 130.92 g/mole = 131 g/mole
30
Also, since density (d) = m V Then, since molar mass = m R T P V molar mass = d R T P
31
Density = (molar mass) x P R T Temperature in K!! Gas density usually measured in g/L
32
Problem What is the density of a sample of ammonia gas, NH 3, if the pressure is 0.928 atm and the temperature is 63.0 C? What is the density of a sample of ammonia gas, NH 3, if the pressure is 0.928 atm and the temperature is 63.0 C?
33
Solution Density = (molar mass) x P R T Density = 17.04 g/mole x 0.928 atm 0.0821 L atm x 336 K mole K Density = 0.573 g/ L NH 3
34
Problem The density of dry air at sea level (1 atm) is 1.225 g/L at 15 C. (1 atm) is 1.225 g/L at 15 C. What is the average molar mass of the air?
35
Solution Density = (molar mass) x P R T Therefore, Molar Mass = Density x R x T P
36
Solution Molar Mass = Density x R x T P Molar Mass = 1.225 g x x x x 0.0821 L atm x 288 K L mole K ___ 1 atm Molar Mass = 28.96 g/mole = 29.0 g/mole
