The Nature of Gases
Gases expand to fill their containers
Gases are fluid – they flowGases have low density
1/1000 the density of the equivalent liquid or solid
Gases are compressibleGases effuse and diffuse

Ideal GasesIdeal gases are imaginary gases that perfectlyfit all of the assumptions of the kinetic molecular theory. Gases consist of tiny particles that
are far apart relative to their size. Collisions between gas particles and the
walls of the container are elastic collisions
No kinetic energy is lost in elastic collisions

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.

Pressure
Unit Symbol
Definition/Relationship
Pascal Pa SI pressure unit
1 Pa = 1 newton/meter2
Millimeter of mercury
mm Hg Pressure that supports a 1 mm column of mercury in a barometer
Atmosphere atm Average atmospheric pressure at sea level and 0 C
Torr torr 1 torr = 1 mm Hg
Pressure is the force created by the collisions
of molecules with the walls of a container

Measuring 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

An Early Barometer
The normal pressure due to the atmosphere at sea level can support a column of mercury that is 760 mm high.
