5. A Reminder… assume ideal
We that we live in an world where:
Gas particles have no mass
Gas particles have no volume
Gas particles have elastic collisions
These assumptions are used when trying to calculate the AMOUNT of a gas we have!

6. Why are these assumptions important?

8. The MysteRious R 62.4 mmHg · L mol · K 8.31 kPa · L mol · K
R is a constant (doesn’t change).
Number value of R depends on other units.
Units of R are a combination of many units.

9. Ummm… What? PV = nRT P V R = n T (kPa) (mm Hg) (L) (atm) R = (mol) (K)
Solve for R:
P V
R =
n T
Plug in units:
(kPa)
(mm Hg) (L)
(atm)
R =
(mol) (K)

10. Gas Laws, Gas Laws Everywhere!T1 = V2 T2

11. When to Use PV = nRT Calculating amount of gas in moles
Calculating P, V, or T if moles of gas are known.
IMPORTANT! We must have 3 out of 4 pieces of information: P V n T

12. Practice with the Ideal Gas Law
A gas sample occupies 2.62 L at 285ºC and 3.42 atm. How many moles are present in this sample?
PV = nRT
P V n =
R T
(3.42 atm)
(2.62 L) n = =
0.196 mol
L · atm
mol · K
(558 K)

13. But Let’s Be Practical…
We don’t usually measure in moles!
We usually measure quantities in GRAMS!
PV = nRT
PVM = gRT

15. Practice with the Ideal Gas Law
A balloon is filled with g of helium to a pressure of 1.26 atm. If the desired volume of the balloon is L, what must the temperature be in ºC?

16. PV=nRT vs. PVM=gRT Use PV=nRT when: Use PVM=gRT when:
You are given moles in the problem.
You are searching for moles as an answer.
Use PVM=gRT when:
You are given grams in the problem.
You are searching for grams as an answer.

17. What Else Happens Under Unchanging Conditions?
At constant V and T, pressure is easy to calculate!
“The sum of the individual pressures is equal to the total pressure.”
Total Pressure = Pressure of gas 1 + Pressure of gas Pressure of gas 3 + Pressure of gas 4 …
Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + …
Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures

18. Partial Pressures Practice
A sample of hydrogen gas is collected over water at 25ºC. The vapor pressure of water at 25ºC is mmHg. If the total pressure is mmHg, what is the partial pressure of the hydrogen?
Ptotal = PH PH2O =
523.8 mm Hg
PH2 +
23.8 mm Hg =
PH2
500.0 mm Hg

19. What do Changing Conditions Affect?
We have learned that we can change 3 variables: Temperature, Volume, and Pressure.
If MASS remains constant…
…But VOLUME changes…
Then DENSITY CHANGES! D = M V

P1 = 1.0 atm
V1 = 22.4 L
T1 = 273 K
P2 = 3.0 atm
V2 = ?
T2 = 314 K
molar volume = L
V2 = (1.0 atm) (22.4 L) (314 K)
D = g
8.6 L =
3.5 g/L
