Q

when temperature of gas increases, gas particles move faster

A

-collisions with the walls are more frequent and the force exerted with each collision greater
-only way for pressure(force per unit area) to remain constant is for the gas to occupy a larger volume so that collisions are less frequent and occur over a larger area

32
Partial Pressure(Pn)—> Dalton’s Law
Pressure due to an individual component of gas
33
P-total equation
- P-total= ntotal * RT/V - P-total= Pa + Pb + Pc …
34
Mole fraction
-na / ntotal -number of moles of a component in a mixture divided by total number in mixture
35
Mole fraction equation
-Pa = XaPtotal
36
Molar volume
-volume occupied by one mole of a substance
37
Standard temperature and pressure (STP)
-for gases, molar volume is often specified at this (T=0 degrees Celsius and P=1.00 atm) - 22.4 L
38
Density equations
-Density = molar mass/ molar volume - d=PM/RT
39
Vapor pressure
- gas mixture has partial pressure of H2O - directly proportional to temperature
40
Postulates of Kinetic Molecular Theory(KMT)
-models a gas as a collection of particles (atoms or molecules) in constant motion - single particle moves in straight line until it collides with another particle -Postulates: 1. Size of particles is negligible small 2. Average kinetic energy of a particle is proportional to kelvin temperature 3. Collision of one particle with another (or with walls of its container) is completely elastic
41
Size of particle is negligibly small
-KMT assumes particles have no volume, even if they have mass -under normal conditions space between atoms or molecules in gas is very large compared to size of atoms or molecules
42
Average kinetic energy of a particle is proportional to kelvin temperature
-motion of atoms or molecules in a gas is due to thermal energy, which distributes itself among particles in a gas -some particles move faster than others at times, so there’s distribution of velocities -higher temperature=faster overall motion and greater average kinetic energy
43
Collision of one particle with another (or with walls of its container) is completely elastic
-when two particles collide, they may exchange energy p, but there’s no loss of energy
44
Pressure defined
-P = F/A
45
Relationship of V and P
-inversely proportional when T and number of particles constant -Boyle’s Law -decrease V forces gas particles to occupy less space and number of collisions with surrounding surfaces increase( increasing P)
46
Relationship of V and T
-Charles' Law -directly proportional when n and P are constant -when T increases, average speed and average kinetic energy of particles increase
47
Relationship of V and n
-Avogadro's law -when T and P are constant, V is proportional to =when number of particles in gas sample increases, number of collisions with surrounding surfaces increases -Vgas directly proportional to number of molecules
48
At given temperature...
-particles at different masses have same average kinetic energy
49
Relationship of gas and partial pressure
-Dalton's Law -total pressure of gas is sum of partial pressure of its components components of gas mixture act identically to and independently of one another
50
temperature and molecular velocity
-in order for kinetic energy to e constant, V must decrease for heavier particles and increase for lighter particles -KE = 1/2mv^2
51
to keep Kinetic Energy constant...
-smaller molar mass = higher velocity
52
Diffusion
-process by which gas molecules spread out in response to a concentration gradient -heavier molecules diffuse more slowly than lighter molecules
53
Effusion
-process by which gas escapes from a container into a vacuum through a small hole -heavier molecules effuse more slowly than lighter molecules(at same temperature)
54
Graham's law of effusion
-rate of effusion inversely proportional to square root of molar mass of gas
55
Gases behave ideally when both of the following are true:
-volume of the gas particles is small compared to the volume(empty space) between them -attractions between gas particles are not significant
56
Effect of Finite Volume of Gas Particles
-finite volume(actual size) of gas particles becomes important at high pressure because the volume of particles occupies a significant portion of total gas volume
57
Intermolecular attractions are small in gases and do not matter much at:
-low pressures because the particles are too far apart for the attractions to have any effect -high temperatures because the particles have a lot of kinetic energy and when two particles with high kinetic energies collide, a weak attraction between them does not affect collision
