Ideal Gas Laws

Gas laws describe the relationship between temperature (T), pressure


(P), Volume (V) and the number of moles (n) of gases.

P pressure [atm]
V volume [l]
n moles [mol]
T temperature [K]
R universal constant = 0.0821 atm l mol-1 K-1
= 8.311 Pa m3 mol-1 K-1

Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP)


0°C = 273.15 K
1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 101325 Pascal (1.013 x 105Pa)

Molar volume (Avogadro’s principle)

 Given T and P, the molar volume of an ideal gas does not depend on
its chemical nature.

 A mole of any gaseous substance occupies at standard temperature


and pressure conditions (STP = 0°C, 1 atm) the same volume of 22.4
L.

 At the same pressure and temperature conditions, equal volume of


different gases contains the same mole number.

The density of a gas

density = m/V

n = m/MM

PV = nRT PV = (m/MM)RT

m/V = MM P/RT

 The density of a gas is directly proportional to its molar mass.

 The density of a gas is inversely proportional to the temperature.

Exercise Example

- How many grams of oxygen are in a container with volume 438 L at


21°C if the pressure is 1.53 atm?
PV=nRT n=PV/RT R = 0.0821 atm L / mole K
T = 21 + 273 = 294 K
n = 1.53 x 438 / 0.0821 x 294 = 27.8 moles
mass O2 = 27.8 moles x MM = 27.8 moles x 32.00 = 890 g

- What will be the pressure at 50°C?


PV=nRT P = n R T/V
T = 50 + 273 = 323 K
P = 27.8 x 0.0821 x 323/438 = 1.68 atm

Van der Waals equation of state for a real gas

The van der Waals equation of state for a real gas is:

where P is the pressure, V the volume, T the temperature, n the


amount of substance (in moles), and R the gas constant.

The van der Waals constants a and b are characteristic of the


substance and are independent of temperature.

Gas Mixtures (1/2)
 Gases are always mixable
P V = n R T predicts how the pressure, volume, and temperature of a
gas depend upon the number of moles of the gas. The number of
moles, n, is the total moles of all the gas-phase species.

Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure states that the pressure of a gas


mixture is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual
components of the gas mixture.

16/18 Practice lecture 6 – IDEAL GASES


Gas Mixtures (2/2)
Ideally the ratio of partial pressures is the same as the ratio of
molecules. That is, the molar fraction of an individual gas component
in an ideal gas mixture can be expressed in terms of the component's
partial pressure or the moles of the component.

For the ideal gas law or Dalton’s law, one may infer that the pressure
(or partial pressure) is proportional to the concentration of a
component in the gas (at constant temperature).
Pi = RT (ni/V)
