boyle’s law
volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at a constant temperature, PV=const T
charles law
volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure, V/T=const P
combined gas law
PV/T=const at const # moles, P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
avogadro’s hypothesis
equal volume of gases at the same temperature and pressure will have an equal number of moles and molecules
ideal gas law
PV=nRT
R
.08206 Latm/Kmol
8.314 J/Kmol
daltons law
partial pressures, total pressure for a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressure of each gas, P=ΣPi
mole fraction
moles of i/total moles=mole fraction xi
no unites
sum =1
kinetic molecular theory of gases
gases made up of very small molecules
molecules are in continuous random motion
average kinetic energy is 1/2Mv^2=32RT
collisions with the walls and other molecules are perfectly elastic
root mean square velocity (average velocity)
U(rms)=[3RT/M]^(1/2)
grahams law
of effusion (no room for molecule to come in while another one leaves) rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular weight of the gas
two reasons that real gases not ideal
real gases have attractions between the molecules, so collisions are not perfectly elastic
real gas molecules are small, but not infinitely small, they have volume
(P+n^2+a/v^2)(V-nb)=nRT
van der Waals equation
a is a measure of the attractive forces between the gas molecules
b is a measure of the size of the gas molecules
kinetic energy
energy due to motion
potential energy
energy due to position
thermal energy
energy due to temperature
first law of thermodynamics
energy can neither be created nor destroyed, ΔE=q+w
two kinds of heat
latent and change in temp
change in temp equation
q=mCΔT
