Bell Work Describe one lab we did on Friday If not here write what you think of when you hear the word: “gas”: Homework: ch. 9 terms –Diffusion until torr Homework: pg 231 due Wednesday 12 th
2
Chapter 9 Gases Gas: comes from the Greek word: Khaos meaning formless matter Turn to page 227 in your text book –Write down 3 descriptions of gases according to the kinetic theory of gases
3
Low density Compared to solids and liquids; gases have little mass per unit of volume Compare ice at -25°C (has a volume of 0.917mL); water has a density of 0.9971g/mL( at 25°C); and steam: has a density of.000561)
4
Diffusion When a gas enters a vacuum or another gas, it spreads out to fill the entire volume with an even concentration This is due to gases physical property of being in constant motion
5
Permeability The ability of a gas to mingle with another porous substance This happens due to molecules that are always moving tend to move into the spaces between other molecules –Space invaders
6
Compression and expansibility Liquids nor solids easily compress Gases have volumes that allow them to change and fit into their containers Compressibility: When high pressures make gases squeeze into smaller volumes Expansibility: when gases encounter a region of low pressure, they quickly expand to fill the available space
7
How gases cause pressure Pressure: the average force exerted per unit area This happens when molecules collide with a boundary This fact can be observed and is a result of molecular collisions –Think of a basketball receiving too much air
8
Turn to page 229 Sample problem (dealing with atmospheres, torr, and psi) More questions –Work on pg: 254 1-3
9
Bell Work What is diffusion Turn in terms
10
Pressure, volume, and temperature A gases volume depends on: how many molecules it has, it’s temperature, and it’s pressure
