The SI Unit for Force is the, which has the units of. Despite a gradual change to SI units for pressure, many chemists still express pressure in, and Unit Name Pressure Unit Pascal (Pa); Kilopascal (kpa) 1.01325 x 10 5 Pa; 101.325 kpa Atmosphere (atm) Millimeters of mercury (mmhg) Torr Bar 1 atm 760 mmhg 760 torr 1.01325 bar Pounds per square inch (lb/in 2 or psi) 14.7 lb/in 2 Psi 14.696 psi Page 2

Calculate the CO2 pressure in torrs and atmospheres. PRACTICE: If the barometer in a laboratory reads 34.2 inhg what is the pressure in bars? (1 in = 2.54 cm) Page 3
CONCEPT: MANOMETER A manometer is an instrument used to measure the pressure of a gas within a container. The pressure of the gas is determined by measuring the difference in height of the mercury within the manometer. EXAMPLE: The pressure of a gas sample is recorded at sea level with an open-end U-tube manometer. If the height of the mercury solution within the barometer is 14.5 cm higher on the side open to the atmosphere, what is the pressure (in atm) of the gas? The barometric pressure at the time of recording was 786.9 torr. Page 4
CONCEPT: PARTIAL PRESSURES OF GASES Law states that in a container of unreacting gases, the total pressure of the container is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. PTOTAL = PGas 1 + PGas 2 + PGas 3 + The total pressure is due to the total number of moles. The partial pressure of each gas molecule is the total pressure multiplied by the mole fraction of each gas molecule. P Gas1 = ( X Gas 1 ) ( P Total ) ( X Gas1 = molesgas1 ) (TotalMoles) X = PGas1 = EXAMPLE: A container has 16.7 g O2, 8.1 g H2 and 35.2 g N2 and contains a total pressure of 0.83 atm. Calculate the mole fraction of O2 and its partial pressure. PRACTICE: A gas mixture with a total pressure of 812 mmhg contains the following gases at with their partial pressures: Cl2 = 210 mmhg, H2 = 180 mmhg, CO2 = 215 mmhg. If argon gas is also present calculate its mole fraction. Page 5

V = 1 P [T and n fixed] Law states that at constant pressure, the volume occupied by a gas in a container is directly proportional to its (absolute) Kelvin temperature. V = T [P and n fixed] Law states that at constant temperature and pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the amount (mol) of gas V = n [P and T fixed] Each of the gas laws focuses on the effect that changes in one variable can have on the volume of a gas, and by combining these individual effects into one relationship we gain the.

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) How many grams of magnesium reacted? EXAMPLE: Acetylene (C2H2), an important fuel in wielding, is produced in the laboratory when calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water: CaC2 (s) + 2 H2O (l) C2H2 (g) + Ca(OH)2 (aq) The pressure of acetylene collected over water is 729 torr while the volume was measured as 629 ml. If at 21 o C the vapor pressure of the water is 29 torr, how many grams of acetylene was produced? Page 8

EXAMPLE 2: Rank the following in order of increasing rate of effusion: O2 AlF5 CO2 Xe Page 11
CONCEPT: KINETIC ENERGY OF GASES In order to measure the average kinetic energy of a gas molecule we must employ the root mean square equation: R = u rms = 3RT M T = M = EXAMPLE: A 1.56 x 10 13 pg gaseous particle travels at 6.21 m s. Determine its kinetic energy. PRACTICE: Calculate the molar mass, in, of a gaseous compound with an average root mean velocity of 652 m s at a temperature of 30 o C.!!!!!!! Page 12
