Document Summary

We know that at a macroscopic level, gases can be characterized using the ideal gas equation: The ideal gas equation provides us w/ a range of information on macroscopic properties of a gas or a gaseous mixture. To link the microscopic properties of a gas to the ideal gas equation require an understanding of gas speed and kinetic energy. Gas molecules that are similar have a different of speeds. If you introduce different type of gases in a molecular beam experiment, you will have a different speed pattern for each gas. The speed of a gas relates directly to the kinetic energy of a gas. E kinetic = (1/2) x m x v^2. M = mass of the gas (kg) Note that the si unit for energy is joule (j) = kg x m^2 x s^-2. Note: at a xed temperature, different gases have the same energy! (see slide 9 for an example)

Demonstrate a proficiency in relating the chemistry of gases to everyday phenomenon. Introduction Molecules in gases have very little attraction for one another, because relative to their size, they are so far apart from each other. For this reason we can often assume that a gas behaves "idcally." meaning that the physical behavior of the gas is independent of the composition of the gas. If a gas behaves ideally, then its physical properties can be described by the Ideal Gas Equation: Let's consider why the variables in the ideal gas equation have the relationships expressed in Equation 1aã The ideal gas equation assumes that there are no attractive forces between gas molecules. One can picture two billiard balls bouncing off one another in a totally clastic collision. If these molecules are placed in a balloon the collisions will occur not only with each other but also with the wall of the balloon, causing the balloon to expand. This expansion can be measured as a volume (V). More molecules will cause more collisions and thus more expansion. Therefore the quantity of molecules or number of moles (n) is directly proportional to the volume, and thus volume and number of moles appear on opposite sides of the equation. Another factor to consider is the kinetic energy of these molecules. Kinetic energy is related to the temperature (T) of the molecules, in that the kinetic energy. If the collisions with the wall of the balloon are happening at a very high speed due to high kinetic energy, the collisions will be harder and more frequent and thus the wall of the balloon will be pushed out further (a larger volume) than if the kinetic energy were less. The result is that volume is also directly proportional to the temperature. This relationship is seen in Equation la with (T) on the right side of the equation and (V) on the left. higher the temperature the greater the considered. While the molecules inside the balloon are pushing the balloon out, there are also molecules in thea Finally the pressure of the outside environment (atmospheric pressure) needs to be 59
