1 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1 of 29 The Nature of Gases The skunk releases its spray! Within seconds you smell that all-too-familiar foul odor. You will discover some general characteristics of gases that help explain how odors travel through the air, even on a windless day. 13.1

2 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall The Nature of Gases > Slide 2 of 29 Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases What are the three assumptions of the kinetic theory as it applies to gases? 13.1

3 Slide 3 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases The word kinetic refers to motion. The energy an object has because of its motion is called kinetic energy. KE = ½ *m *v 2 Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance. According to the kinetic theory, all matter consists of tiny particles that are in constant motion. 13.1

4 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall The Nature of Gases > Slide 4 of 29 Kinetic Energy and Temperature What is the relationship between the temperature in kelvins and the average kinetic energy of particles? 13.1

5 Slide 5 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Energy and Temperature Average Kinetic Energy The particles in any collection of atoms or molecules at a given temperature have a wide range of kinetic energies. Most of the particles have kinetic energies somewhere in the middle of this range. 13.1

6 Slide 6 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Energy and Temperature 13.1

7 Slide 7 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Energy and Temperature Absolute zero (0 K, or –273.15°C) is the temperature at which the motion of particles theoretically ceases. Particles would have no kinetic energy at absolute zero. Absolute zero has never been produced in the laboratory. 13.1

8 Slide 8 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Energy and Temperature Average Kinetic Energy and Kelvin Temperature The Kelvin temperature of a substance is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles of the substance. 13.1

9 Slide 9 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Energy and Temperature In this vacuum chamber, scientists cooled sodium vapor to nearly absolute zero. 13.1

10 Slide 10 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases According to kinetic theory for an IDEAL GAS: The particles in a gas are considered to be small, hard spheres with an insignificant volume. The motion of the particles in a gas is rapid, constant, and random. All collisions between particles in a gas are perfectly elastic. 13.1

11 Slide 11 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases Particles in a gas are in rapid, constant motion. 13.1

12 Slide 12 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases Gas particles travel in straight-line paths. 13.1

13 Slide 13 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Kinetic Theory and a Model for Gases The gas fills the container. 13.1

14 Slide 14 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Compressibility Compressibility is a measure of how much the volume of matter decreases under pressure. When a person collides with an inflated airbag, the compression of the gas absorbs the energy of the impact.

15 Slide 15 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Low Denisty At room temperature, the distance between particles in an enclosed gas is about 10 times the diameter of a particle.

16 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall The Nature of Gases > Slide 16 of 29 Gas Pressure How does kinetic theory explain gas pressure? 13.1

17 Slide 17 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Gas Pressure Gas pressure results from the force exerted by a gas per unit surface area of an object. An empty space with no particles and no pressure is called a vacuum. Atmospheric pressure results from the collisions of atoms and molecules in air with objects. 13.1

18 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 18 of 29 > The Nature of Gases Gas Pressure Gas pressure is the result of simultaneous collisions of billions of rapidly moving particles in a gas with an object. 13.1

19 Slide 19 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Gas Pressure A barometer is a device that is used to measure atmospheric pressure. 13.1

20 Slide 20 of 29 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall > The Nature of Gases Gas Pressure The SI unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa). One standard atmosphere (atm) is the pressure required to support 760 mm of mercury in a mercury barometer at 25°C. 13.1
