IDEAL GAS LAW
QUICK REVIEW Boyle’s Law: 	  P1V1= P2V2 Pressure and volume are inversely proportional Charles Law:	   V1   =   V2 T1        T2   Volume and temperature are directly proportional Gay Lussac’s Law:    P1   =    P2 T1        T2    Pressure and volume are directly proportional TOGETHER THE VARIABLES FORM…
The COMBINED GAS LAW P1V1= P2V2 			   T1 	   T2 ** Gaining and understanding of these laws allows you to understand how gases behave when you change the pressure, volume, or temperature of a gas sample.**
GASES BEHAVE THE SAME WAY.  According to the Kinetic Molecular Theory, gases: Consist of a large number of particles that are far apart. Undergo elastic collisions, which means, no energy is lost- kinetic energy is conserved. Are in continuous rapid motion. Are neither attracted to or repelled by other gas particles. Are dependent upon temperature for the speed of their particles.
A real gas does not completely behave according to the assumptions of this theory. An ideal gas conforms to all of the  the assumptions of this theory.
IDEAL GAS LAW The ideal gas law assumes that all gases behave perfectly and identically to the rules of the kinetic molecular theory. It shows the relationship between pressure, volume, temperature, and the amount of gas in moles. It can be used to find one of the four variables given the other three.
IDEAL GAS LAW FORMULA PV= nRT
P= Pressure: The force per unit are applied to the surface of an object. The pressure of the air molecules in this tornado can knock down numerous trees…
V= Volume: The measurement of how much space matter takes up. The volume of this air takes up enough space to fill a hot air balloon!!!
n= Amount of gas in moles
R= Gas Constant .0821    atm  L 				   mol  K
T= Temperature: a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles of matter. Common Units of Temperature: Kelvin (K): The only units that can be used when doing numerical problems with gases. Celsius (°C): Must be converted to Kelvin before doing problems (add 273).

MORE ON PRESSURE Some word problems may give you pressure in a variety of ways. Atmospheres (atm): The average air pressure at sea level. Millimeters of Mercury(mmHg): originates from how pressure is measured with a barometer. Torr: Named Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. The torr is exactly equal to mmHg. KiloPascal(kPa): Another SI unit for pressure.
Here’s the Connection… In these amounts, all of these units are EQUAL!!! 1 atm =760 mmHg =760 torr =101.3 kPa YOU HAVE TO MEMORIZE THESE CONVERSIONS!!!
Example 1: Convert a pressure of 1.75 atmospheres to kiloPascals.
Example 2: Convert a pressure 570 torr to atmospheres.
Example: The atmospheric pressure in Denver Colorado is .830 atmospheres. What is the pressure in a) mmHg b)kPa
More Gram to Mole Conversions **Quick Tip: MOLAR MASS is the only thing that can help you convert from grams to moles!!** O2= _______g 64g 		O2= _______mol  HF= ________g 40g 	HF= ___________mol   CO2= __________g		88g CO2= _______mol
FREQUENTLY USED TERMS IN WORD PROBLEMS: MEMORIZE THESE!!! Standard Temperature and Pressure: (STP) Pressure= 1 atm 		Temperature= 273K or 0°C  Room Temperature: Kelvin scale= 298 K  				                Celsius scale= 25°C If a word problems refers to “STP” or “room temperature”, it is important for you to know these fixed values.
Ideal Gas Law Example 1:  A sample of gas has a volume of 10 liters,a pressure of 1.5 atm, and a temperature of 25°C, how many moles of gas do I have?
Ideal Gas Law Example 2: If I have 3.5 moles of a gas at a pressure of 895 kPa with a volume of 50 liters, what is the temperature?
