Ideal GasesIdeal Gases
Ideal gases are imaginary gases that perfectlyfit all of the assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory. (section 5.6 kmt) Gases consist of tiny particles that are far apart relative to their size.
Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the walls of the container are elastic collisions
No kinetic energy is lost in elastic collisions
Ideal Gases Ideal Gases (continued)
Gas particles are in constant, rapid motion. They therefore possess kinetic energy, the energy of motion
There are no forces of attraction between gas particles
The average kinetic energy of gas particles depends on temperature, not on the identity of the particle.

Measuring PressureMeasuring Pressure
The first device for measuring atmosphericpressure was developed by Evangelista Torricelli during the 17th century.
The device was called a “barometer”
Baro = weight Meter = measure

Kinetic Molecular Theory vs. Theory of the ideal GasEver see a fast food commercial. Don't those burgers look great. Then you get one, and you are disappointed because it is not the perfect one on the TV. So you lie to yourself. No matter how many burgers you order in your life, none will be as perfect at the one on TV. But if you think it is perfect, who really cares. Ideal gas are like the commercials and real gases are what you get. Nothing is ever perfect, but close is good enough.
Ideal Gas Rules (the Kinetic Molecular Theory)
1.Gases consist of large numbers of molecules (or atoms, in the case of the noble gases) that are in continuous, random straight line motion
2.The volume of all the molecules of the gas is negligible compared to the total volume in which the gas is contained (This is equivalent to stating that the average distance separating the gas particles is large compared to their size).
3.Attractive and repulsive forces between gas molecules is negligible (they can never group together and form drops and liquefy)
4. Energy can be transferred between molecules during collisions, but the collisions are perfectly elastic and the total energy remains constant.
Here is what you really need to know.
1. The most ideal gas in nature is hydrogen then helium. It is small and has the least mass.
2. How real gases deviate from Ideal gases. They have mass, volume and attraction. this causes the molecules to be drawn to each other, which cause the actual volume of a gas to be smaller then its ideal gas calculation. Watch this simulation of how a real molecules would wobble as it travels.
AP Chemistry-The Van der Waals equation accounts for these shortcomings of the Theory of the Ideal Gas.
3. Also real gases can liquefy under the conditions of High Pressure and Low Temperature. These are the least ideal conditions.
Just like ideal gas conditions, Ideal Vacations conditions High Temperature and Low Pressure.

QUESTION #1Four bicycle tires are inflated to the following pressures. Which one has the highest pressure? Tire A 3.42 atm; Tire B 48 lbs/sq in; Tire C 305 kPa; Tire D 1520 mmHg. (Recall; 1.00 atm = 760 mmHg = 14.7 lb/sq in = 101.3 kPa)
1. Tire A2. Tire B3. Tire C4. Tire D
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 1 Even though it has the smallest number, it represents the highest pressure of the four. When all four are changed to a common label (use conversion factors found on page 181 and dimensional analysis) 3.42 atm is a higher pressure than the others.

QUESTION #2Why is it critical that the temperature be held constant when applying Boyle’s law to changing the pressure of a trapped gas?
1. Gas molecules may expand at higher temperatures; this wouldchange the volume.
2. Changing the temperature causes the gas to behave in non-idealfashion.
3. Changing the temperature affects the average particle speed,which could affect the pressure.
4. Allowing the temperature to drop below 0°C would cause thetrapped gas to no longer follow Boyle’s Law.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3 provides the connection between temperature and pressure that would introduce another variable when studying the pressure-volume relationship. Boyle’s law shows that if the molecules of a trapped gas maintain the same average velocity when their volume is changed, the pressure will be inversely related to the volume change.

QUESTION #3After examining this figure, which of the following statements offers accurate, consistent statements about the gases shown at constant pressure?
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
QUESTION (continued)1. At –273°C all gases occupy nearly the same volume; the
different slopes are because of differences in molar masses. 2. At zero Celsius the gases have different volumes because the
larger the molecule, the larger the volume.3. Since the pressure is constant, the only difference that could
cause the different slopes is in the number of moles of gas present in each sample. For example, the N2O sample must have the fewest moles.
4. Although it does appear to do so, the volumes do not reach zero but if the graph used K instead of °C the volume would reach zero for all the gases.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3 is the correct conclusion. If all the gases had the same number of moles in their samples, the volume should be the same for all four at any temperature (with constant pressure). This is reflected in Avogadro’s law.

QUESTION #4Each of the balloons hold 1.0 L of different gases. All four are at 25°C and each contains the same number of molecules. Of the following which would also have to be the same for each balloon? (obviously not their color)
1. Their density2. Their mass3. Their buoyancy4. Their pressure
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 4 is consistent with Avogadro’s Law. The temperature, pressure, number of moles, and volume are related for a sample of trapped gas. If two samples have three variables out of the four the same, the fourth variable must be the same as well.

QUESTION #5If a 10.0 L sample of a gas at 25°C suddenly had its volume doubled, without changing its temperature what would happen to its pressure? What could be done to keep the pressure constant without changing the temperature?
1. The pressure would double; nothing else could be done toprevent this.
2. The pressure would double; the moles of gas could be doubled.3. The pressure would decrease by a factor of two; the moles of gas
could be halved.4. The pressure would decrease by a factor of two; the moles could
be doubled.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 4 describes two opposing changes. When the volume increases, the pressure of a trapped gas will decrease (at constant temperature and constant moles of gas). However, if the pressure drops, more collisions could be restored by adding more particles of gas in the same ratio as the pressure decline.

QUESTION #6The typical capacity for human lungs is approximately 5,800 mL. At a temperature of 37°C (average body temperature) and pressure of 0.98 atm, how many moles of air do we carry inside our lungs?
1. 1.9 mol2. 0.22 mol3. 230 mol4. No one wants moles in their lungs.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 2 is correct. The units for temperature must be in K, pressure in atm, and volume in L. Then using the universal constant 0.08206 L atm/ K mol in the PV = nRT equation moles may be solved.

QUESTION #7The aroma of fresh raspberries can be attributed, at least in part, to 3-(para-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanone. What is the molar mass of this pleasant smelling compound if at 1.00 atmosphere of pressure and 25.0°C, 0.0820 grams has a volume of 12.2 mL?
1. 13.8 g/mol2. 164 g/mol3. 40.9 g/mol4. 224 g/mol
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 2 is correct. Using PV = nRT and properly substituting0.0122 L for V, 298 K for T, using 0.08206 for R and solving for n the number of moles represented by 0.0820 grams can be obtained. Then the grams in one mole can be found.

Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3 is the correct density for O2 at STP. At STP conditions the volume of one mole of a gas is approximately 22.4 L. One mole of oxygen = 32.0 grams. The density is calculated by dividing mass by volume.

QUESTION #10The primary way your body produces exhaled CO2 is by the
combustion of glucose, C6H12O6 (molar mass = 180. g/mol.). The
balanced equation is shown here:
C6H12O6 (aq) + 6 O2 (g) → 6 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (l)
If you oxidized 5.42 grams of C6H12O6 at STP conditions, how many
liters of O2 did you use?
1. 0.737 L2. 0.672 L3. 4.05 L4. 22.4 L
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3, assuming you were not holding your breath, is correct. The number of moles of glucose must first be determined (5.42/180. = 0.0301 moles), then this is multiplied by 6 to account for the stoichiometric ratio between glucose and oxygen. From this, PV = nRT may be used with the appropriate substitutions.

QUESTION #11Freon-12 had been widely used as a refrigerant in air conditioning systems. However, it has been shown to be related to destroying Earth’s important ozone layer. What is the molar mass of Freon-12 if 9.27 grams was collected by water displacement, in a 2.00 liter volume at 30.0°C and 764 mmHg. Water’s vapor pressure at this temperature is approximately 31.8 mmHg.
1. 120. g/mol2. 12.0 g/mol3. 115 g/mol4. 92.7 g/mol
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 1 is the molar mass of Freon-12. The pressure must be corrected for the presence of water by subtracting 31.8 mmHg from the total pressure. This should also be converted to atm. The temperature must be converted to K. Then PV = nRT can be used if n is written as g/mm and solved for mm.

QUESTION #14Kinetic molecular theory helps explain the definition of temperature based on molecular motion. Which statement describes an important aspect of this connection?
1. Temperature is inversely related to the kinetic energy of thegas particles.
2. At the same temperature, more massive gas particles will bemoving faster than less massive gas particles.
3. As the temperature of a gas sample increases, the average velocity of the gas particles increases.4. Kinetic energy is directly related to temperature. This is valid
for any units of temperature.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3 states a correct connection between temperature and velocity. The important relationship is summarized in the following equation: ½ mass velocity2 = 3/2 RT (T must be in K).

QUESTION #15As the temperature of a gas increases, which statement best correlates to information about molecular velocity?
1. The average molecular velocity will increase, but thedistribution of molecular velocities will stay the same.
2. The average molecular velocity will stay the same, but themolecular velocity distribution will spread.
3. The average molecular velocity will increase, and thedistribution of the molecular velocities will spread.
4. The average molecular velocity will stay the same, and thedistribution of the molecular velocities will stay the same.
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. CRS Question, 5–
ANSWERChoice 3 accurately reflects the connection between molecular velocity and an increase in temperature. Figure 5.21 on page 206 visually shows the relationship. Kelvin temperature is directly related to molecular velocity - with greater temperature the distribution of available velocities also increases.
