Behavior of Gases Gases behave much differently than liquids and solids and thus, have different laws. Because gas molecules have no forces keeping them together, they fill whatever container in which they are kept. This distance between the molecules also means they can be compressed.
3
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases Model explaining gas behavior. 1) A gas consists of small particles (atoms or molecules) that move randomly with high velocities. 2) The attractive forces between gases can be ignored.
4
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases 3) The actual volume that the gas molecules occupy is usually much smaller than the volume of the container. - Therefore, gases can be easily compressed because of all the empty space. 4) The average kinetic energy (temperature) of gas molecules is proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
5
Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases 5) Gas particles are in constant motion, moving rapidly in straight paths until collide with another gas molecule and change direction. - When they hit each other or the walls of the container, they create gas pressure. - As collisions increase, pressure increases.
6
Properties of Gases The following properties are used to describe gases: Pressure Volume Temperature Amount of gas
7
Pressure of a Gas Pressure of a gas occurs when gas molecules strike each other as well as the sides of a container. As collisions increase between molecules, pressure increases. The pressure of the air molecules around us is called atmospheric pressure.
8
Atmospheric pressure – decreases with altitude because there are fewer air molecules present
9
Common Units of Pressure Atmosphere (atm) Millimeters of Mercury (mmHg) Torr (torr) Pounds per square inch (lb/in 2 ) Pascal (Pa)
10
Barometric Pressure -As air pressure increases (downward) the barometer reading (Hg) rises upward.
11
Volume of a Gas The volume of a gas equals the size of the container in which the gas is placed. Volume of gases are generally measured in liters (L) or cubic decimeters (dm 3 ) which equal the same amount. Also, 1mL = 1 cm 3
12
Temperature of a Gas Temperature reflects the average kinetic energy due to the movement of a gas. Measured in Kelvin (K)
13
Amount of a Gas Uses moles to describe the relative quantity of molecules of a gas that are present.

Molar Volume ***** At STP, according to Avogadro, any gas has a molar volume of 22.4L. Conversion factor: 1 mole (of any gas) = 22.4L
