There are 6 diatomic molecules: H2, N2, O2, Cl2, F2, Br2

Calvin (K) scale has no negative # - there is an absolute zero – no energy level

(Fo - 32)5/9 = Co

Co +273 = Ko

Graham’s Law

Rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses

R1 = rate of diffusion of molecule A

R2 = rate of diffusion of molecule B

M1 = molar mass of AM2 = molar mass of B

Avagadro’s Law: At STP the volume of 1 mole of any gas is 22.4L

Volume

The density of any gas is proportional to its molar mass

Pressure

A force applied to a certain object. One way to measure pressure is in pounds per square inch L/in2 or g/cm2.

Pressure can also be measured in kilo-Pascals (100kPa = 5L/in2).

Pressure can be measured in atm. At sea level air pressure is approx. 1atm.

In most cases a manometer is used to measure pressure. A manometer is a U-shaped tube filled with mercury (has a very high density) when pressure is applied the Mercury moves away (up tube) from gas. The distance between the original end point of Hg and the endpoint after application of pressure, in millimeters of Hg equals the amount of pressure exerted.

Open ended manometer – the pressure = deference in millimeters = 1atm

Closed ended manometers are used to measure pressure that is significantly less that 1atm

1atm = 760 mmHg

Another way of measuring pressure is to have a basin of mercury with a vertical tube sticking out and then to pour waster on both sides and measure how much mercury goes up tube.

KE = 1/2 mv2  kinetic energy equals half mass times velocity squared

Boyle's Law -Temperature is constant – if pressure goes up volume goes down or

Charles' Law - Pressure is constant – if volume goes up temperature goes up or

Gay-Lussac's Law - volume is constant – if temperature goes up pressure goes up or

Combined Gas Law

STP standard temperature (0o C  273o K) and pressure (1atm)

SATP standard atmospheric temperature (25o C  298o K) and pressure (1atm)

Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures

Partial pressure of each gas is proportional to the # of moles of that gas in the mixture. Ratio of Partial P to total P is equivalent to the ratio of the moles

Example: 3mole O2, 1 mole H2O, 1mole CO2, 0.5mole N2  5.5 mole of that gas in this gas exerts the pressure of 1atm. How much pressure does each partial gas exert?

O2 exerts  x = 3/5.5 = 0.6atm

H2O exerts  x = 1/5.5 = 0.18atm

CO2 exerts  x = 1/5.5 = 0.18atm

N2 exerts  x = .5/5.5 = 0.9atm

101kPa = 1atm = 760mmHg

100kpa = 750mmHg

Ideal Gas Equation (P-pressure, V-volume, n – # of moles, R – gas constant, T - temperature)

Gas constant, R

R = 0.0821 atm L / mol K if pressure is measured in atmOR

R = 8.31 kPa L / mol K if pressure is measured in mmHg

To find number of moles divide mass by molar mass  mass/molar mass =n
