BEHAVIOR OF GASES

Three States of MatterThree States of Matter

_____1. Particles are very close to each other and move in a
fixed position.
_____2. Particles are far apart and move freely.
_____3. Particles are able to vibrate about their fixed
position. Thus, attractions between them are very strong.
_____4. The random motion of the particles and their
freedom to slide against each other result in weaker forces of
attraction. It assumes the shape of the containers. However,
the volume is definite.
_____5. Particles have very weak forces of attraction
between them and account for their unique properties.

PROPERTIES OF A GAS
•Factors Affecting Gas Pressure
•Amount of Gas
•Increase amount, increase pressure
•Volume
•Reduce volume, increase pressure
•Temperature
•Increase temperature, increase pressure
•Relationship between pressure,
temperature, and volume is explained
through the Gas Laws

Gases (Vapors)
Gases expand to fill any
container.
Therefore, gases are highly
compressible.

10
Kinetic Molecular Theory (of an Ideal Gas):
1. Gases are composed of molecules or atoms whose size
is negligible compared to the average distance between
them. (Most of the space in the gas container is empty.)
2. Gas molecules move randomly in straight lines in all
directions at various speeds.
3. The forces of attraction or repulsion between gas
molecules are very weak or negligible (except during
collisions)
4. Collisions between gas molecules are considered elastic.
5. The average kinetic energy of a molecule is proportional to
the absolute temperature.

4 VARIABLES THAT CAN BE
ALTERED IN A GAS:
1. AMOUNT OF A GAS
2. VOLUME OF A GAS
3. TEMPERATURE OF A GAS
4. PRESSURE OF A GAS

14
We can measure gases in 4
ways:
Measurement Unit
Amount of gas (n)Moles
Volume (V) Liters (L)
Temperature (T)K
Pressure (P) atm, kPa,
Torr, mm Hg,

1. Amount of Gas
•When we inflate a balloon, we are
adding gas molecules.
•Increasing the number of gas
particles increases the number of
collisions
•thus, the pressure increases
•If temp. is constant- doubling the number
of particles doubles pressure

Pressure and the number of
molecules are directly related
•More molecules means more collisions.
•Fewer molecules means fewer
collisions.
•Gases naturally move from areas of high
pressure to low pressure because there
is empty space to move in too- spray
can is example.

17
Common use?
•Aerosol (spray) cans
•gas moves from higher
pressure to lower pressure
•a propellant forces the product
out
•whipped cream, hair spray,
paint.

2. Volume of Gas
•In a smaller container, molecules
have less room to move.
•Hit the sides of the container more
often.
•As volume decreases, pressure
increases. (think of a syringe)

3. Temperature of Gas
•Raising the temperature of a gas
increases the pressure, if the
volume is held constant.
•The molecules hit the walls harder,
and more frequently!
•The only way to increase the volume
at constant pressure is to increase
the temperature.

20
Pressure (P)
The force per
unit area on a
surface

21
Pressure is caused
by gas particles
slamming into the
container’s walls.

The common units of pressure are the
following:


Pascal (Pa) - standard unit of pressure
under Systemé International (SI) which is
equivalent to a force of one newton (1N = 1
kg m/s2) acting on an area of one square
meter.


Atmosphere (atm)


Torr


Millimeter mercury (mm Hg)

STP - Standard Temperature and
Pressure
Standard Temperature is 0°C
All temperature calculations in a gas must be in
Kelvin (K).
Reminder: K = C° + 273

Standard Pressure is 1 atmosphere
(atm) at sea-level
Helpful Hint: There is more than one type of
pressure unit. Here is the conversion factor.
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101. 3 kPa

Pressure can be converted from
unit to another using the
following conversion:
•1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm
Hg
•1 torr = 1 mm Hg
•1 atm = 101. 325 Pa

Converting between Units of Pressure:
atm., mmHg and kPa

One atm. equals 760.0 mm Hg, so there will be a multiplication or division based on the
direction of the change.
Example #1: Convert 0.875 atm to mmHg.
Solution: multiply the atm value by 760.0 mmHg / atm.
760.0 mmHg
0.875 atm x ––––––––––
1 atm

Example #2: Convert 745.0 mmHg to atm.
Solution: divide the mmHg value by 760.0 mmHg / atm
745.0 mmHg
––––––––––––––– = 0.980 atm
760.0 mmHg / atm

Solve (a) To convert atmospheres to torr, we use the
relationship 760 torr = 1 atm:

GAS
LAWS

A way to describe the characteristics of a gas as
conditions change.
For each gas law certain variables (amount,
temp., pressure, volume) change while others
are assumed to remain constant.

GAS LAWS
•Boyle’s Law
•Charles’ Law
•Gay-Lussac’s Law
•Combined Gas Law
•Ideal Gas Law
•Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure
•Graham’s Law

Robert Boyle investigated the
relationship between the volume
of a gas and its pressure.
The other two variables, amount
and temperature, were assumed to
be constant (unchanged).

Boyle’s Results:
1. As pressure increases,
volume decreases.
2. As pressure decreases,
volume increases.
3. The volume of a fixed
amount of gas varies
inversely with the
pressure of the gas.
