Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases

Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases –

Based on the assumption that gas molecules are always moving.

Assumptions of Gas Molecules

1. Gases consist of lots of tiny particles that are very far apart. Caron dioxide particles take up 1000x space of liquid or solid.

2. Collisions of the gas particles are elastic – no net loss of energy.

3. Gas particles are in constant random motion.

4. No attraction or repulsion between gas particles.

5. Average energy of gas depends on temperature of gas.

Ideal Gases

Ideal gases follow all 5 assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory.

Real gases act like ideal gases at 1 atm and room temperature.

Real gases don’t follow the assumptions of KMT at very low temperatures and at very high pressures because these gases at low temp. and high press. are becoming a liquid or solid. Therefore, will not act like a gas.

Properties of Gases

Gases don’t have definite shape or volume. They flow, have low density, are compressible and can diffuse and effuse.

Diffusion – mixing of two gases by random motion

Effusion – process where a gas passes through a small opening.

Pressure

Pressure = force per unit area

Calculate the force for getting your foot stomped on by a) athletic shoe heel

b) stiletto high heel.

Measurements of Pressure

Barometer measures atmospheric pressure.

Units for Pressure (memorize)

1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 760 torr = 101.3 kPa

atm = atmosphere kPa = kilopascal

mm Hg = millimeters of mercury

STP = standard temp and press = 1 atm, 0C

Pressure

For gases in a container…

Pressure is caused by gas molecules colliding with the WALL of the container

The more collisions with the wall, the higher the pressure.

Gas Laws

Gas laws relates 4 variables of gases to each other:

1. pressure , P

2. temp, T must be in kelvin

3. volume , V

4. amount of gas, n must be in moles

Boyle’s Law

Boyle’s Law: The pressure is inversely proportional to the volume.

PV = k OR P1V1 = P2V2

Illustrate and graph. Pg 314

Boyle's Law, As the pressure increases the volume decreases proportionally

Charles’ Law

Charles Law – volume of gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temp.

V = k OR V1 = V2

T T1 T2

Illustrate by example and graph p318.

Charles' Law, As the temperature increases the volume increases proportionally

Gay Lussac’s Law

Gay Lussac’s Law: Pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.

P = k OR P1 = P2

T T1 T2

Illustrate by example and graph pg 319

Gay Lussac's Law, At constant volume as the temperature increases the pressure increases proportionately

Avogadro’sLaw

Avogadro’s Law - Gas volume is directly proportional to the amount of gas.

V = k OR V1 = V2

n n1 n2

Illustrate by example and graph.

Combined Gas Law – shows the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and amount of gas.

Combined Gas Law

P1V1 = P2V2

n1T1 n2T2

P = pressure in mmHg, torr, kPa, as long as P1 & P2 are same units.

V = volume in L, mL as long as V1 & V2 are same units

n = number of molesT = temperature in Kelvin K = °C + 273 must be Kelvin in all gas law calculations.

Demonstrate what happens to the combined gas law when a variable does not change.

Therefore, any variable held constant or not mentioned can be dropped from the combined gas law equation.

Practice Problems

5. The volume of a sample of gas is 200 mL at 275 K and 92.1 kPa. What is the temperature of the gas if the volume increases to 450 mL and the pressure increases to 98.5 kPa?

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure

Dalton’s Law of partial pressures – the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the pressures of each of the individual gases added together.

Pt = P1 + P2 + P3 + …

Illustrate how a gas is collected by water displacement. Appendix A table gives water vapor pressure at different temperatures. Pg. 899

Examples
