Physical Characteristics of Gases
• Gases assume the volume and shape of their containers.
• Gases are the most compressible state of matter.
• Gases will mix evenly and completely when confined to the same container.
• Gases have much lower densities than liquids and solids.

Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases
1. A gas is composed of molecules that are separated from each other by
distances far greater than their own dimensions. The molecules can be
considered to be points; that is, they possess mass but have negligible
volume.
2. Gas molecules are in constant motion in random directions, and they
frequently collide with one another. Collisions among molecules are
perfectly elastic.
3. Gas molecules exert neither attractive nor repulsive forces on one
another.
4. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to the
temperature of the gas in kelvins. Any two gases at the same
temperature will have the same average kinetic energy

KE = ½ mu2

24
Gas diffusion is the gradual mixing of molecules of one gas with molecules of
another by virtue of their kinetic properties.

Liquid States

1
Liquids
If the particles of a substance have enough energy to partially overcome intermolecular
interactions, then the particles can move about each other while remaining in contact. This
describes the liquid state.
In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite volume. However,
because the particles can move about each other rather freely, a liquid has no definite shape
and takes a shape dictated by its container.

2
physical properties of liquids
• Liquids are relatively incompressible fluids; they have a definite volume but have no definite
shape.
• Both vapor pressure and boiling point are important properties of a liquid.
• Two additional properties are surface tension and viscosity.

3
Vapor Pressure
Liquids, and even some solids, are continuously vaporizing. If a liquid is in a closed vessel with space above it, a
partial pressure of the vapor state builds up in this space.
The vapor pressure of a liquid is the partial pressure of the vapor over the liquid, measured at equilibrium at a
given temperature.
• The vapor pressure of a liquid depends on its temperature. – As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy
of the molecular motion becomes greater, and vapor pressure increases.
• Some of the molecules in the vapor collide with the liquid surface and stick; that is, the vapor condenses to
liquid.
• The rate of condensation steadily increases as the number of molecules in the volume of vapor increases, until
the rate at which molecules are condensing on the liquid equals the rate at which molecules are vaporizing.

4
• Liquids and solids with relatively high vapor pressure at normal temperatures are said to be volatile.
• Chloroform and carbon tetrachloride are volatile liquids.
• Naphthalene, C10H8, and para-dichlorobenzene, C6H4Cl2, are volatile solids: they have appreciable vapor
pressures at room temperature. Both are used to make mothballs.

5
Boiling Point
• The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure exerted on the liquid is called the
boiling point of the liquid.
• As the temperature of a liquid increases, the vapor pressure increases until it reaches atmospheric pressure.
At this point, stable bubbles of vapor form within the liquid. This process is called boiling.

6
• Once boiling starts, the temperature of the liquid remains at the boiling point (as long as sufficient heat is
supplied). Because the pressure exerted on a liquid can vary, the boiling point of a liquid can vary. For instance,
at 1.00 atm (the average atmospheric pressure at sea level), the boiling point of water is 100C. But at 0.83 atm
the boiling point of water is 95C. The normal boiling point of a liquid is the boiling point at 1 atm.

7
Surface Tension
• A molecule within the body of a liquid tends to be attracted equally in all directions, so that it experiences no
net force.
• On the other hand, a molecule at the surface of a liquid experiences a net attraction by other molecules
toward the interior of the liquid.
• As a result, there is a tendency for the surface area of a liquid to be reduced as much as possible.
• This explains why falling raindrops are nearly spherical. Surface tension is the energy required to increase the
surface area of a liquid by a unit amount.

8
Viscosity
• Viscosity is the ability of a liquid to flow. Or it is resistance of a liquid for a pressure forcing it
to move and flow.
• The viscosity of liquids decreases with increase the temperature.
• The viscosity of gases increases with the increase the temperature.

9
Solution formation
When sodium chloride dissolves in water, the resulting uniform dispersion of ions in water is called a solution. In
general, a solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances, consisting of ions or molecules.

Types of solutions
Solutions may exist in any of the three states of matter; that is, they may be gases, liquids, or solids. Some
examples are listed in Table. The terms solute and solvent refer to the components of a solution.
The solute, in the case of a solution of a gas or solid dissolved in a liquid, is the gas or solid; in other cases, the
solute is the component in smaller amount.

10
Solute: a substance that is being dissolved (smaller amount).
The solvent, in a solution of a gas or solid dissolved in a liquid, is the liquid; in other cases, the solvent is the
component in greater amount. Thus, when sodium chloride is dissolved in water, sodium chloride is the solute
and water is the solvent.
Solvent: a substance which dissolves a solute (larger amount).

11
Gaseous Solutions:
In general, nonreactive gases or vapors can mix in all proportions to give a gaseous mixture. Fluids that mix with or
dissolve in each other in all proportions are said to be miscible fluids. Gases are thus miscible. (If two fluids do not
mix but, rather, form two layers, they are said to be immiscible.) Air, which is a mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, and
smaller amounts of other gases, is an example of a gaseous solution.

12
Liquid Solutions:
Most liquid solutions are obtained by dissolving a gas, liquid, or solid in some liquid. Soda water, for example,
consists of a solution of carbon dioxide gas in water. Acetone, C3H6O, in water is an example of a liquid–liquid
solution. (Immiscible and miscible liquids are shown below.). Brine is water with sodium chloride (a solid)
dissolved in it.

13
Solid Solutions:
Solid solutions are also possible. Gold–silver alloys. Dental-filling alloy is a solution of mercury (a liquid) in silver
(a solid), with small amounts of other metals.

14
Colligative properties
Colligative properties of solutions are properties that depend on the concentration of solute
molecules or ions in solution but not on the chemical identity of the solute (whether it is
ethylene glycol or urea, for instance).

15
Concentrations
The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute
present in a given quantity of a solvent or solution.

Molarity
The number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of
solution.

What is the unit of molarity?

What is the relationship between weight and molarity?

17
Example

glucose (C6H12O6). If the molar mass of glucose is 180
g/mol, what is the molarity of the solution?

No. of mol of glucose = wt (g) / Mw (g/mol) = 36.0 g /180 g/mol


= 0.2 mol

M = n (mol) / V (L) = 0.2 mol /2.5 L = 0.08 mol/L

Assume 1 L of solution:

= 927 g – 270 g = 657 g = 0.657 kg

moles of solute 5.86 moles C2H5OH


m = = = 8.92 m
mass of solvent (kg) 0.657 kg solvent

20
Mole Fraction
Mole fraction X is the ratio of moles of one substance in a mixture to
the total number of moles of all substances.

For a mixture of two substances, A and B, the mole fractions of each would be written as follows:

moles of A moles of B
XA= XB=
Mole of A+ mole of B Mole of A+ mole of B

It is a measure of the strength of acid or base.
The ionization constant has the same equilibrium expression.

Self-ionization of water
K w = [ H + ][OH − ]
K w = 1.0 × 10 −14 at 25 o C
[ H + ] = [OH − ] = 1.0 × 10 −14 = 1.0 × 10 −7
At 25°C, you observe the following conditions.

an acidic solution, [H+] > [OH-]


a neutral solution, [H+] = [OH-]
a basic solution, [H+] < [OH-]

9
pH of Solutions
The pH of a solution is defined as the negative logarithm of the
molar hydrogen-ion concentration

pH = − log[ H + ]

pH + pOH = 14.00
In a neutral solution, whose hydrogen-ion
concentration is 1.0 x 10-7, the pH = 7.00

10
At 25°C, you observe the following conditions

In an acidic solution, [H+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M, pH<7

In a neutral solution, [H+] = 1.0 x 10-7 M, pH=7

In a basic solution, [H+] < 1.0 x 10-7 M, pH>7

11
Example
For a solution in which the hydrogen-ion concentration
is 1.0 x 10-3, the pH is:
−3
pH = − log(1.0 ×10 ) = 3.00
Note that the number of decimal places
in the pH equals the number of
significant figures in the hydrogen-ion
concentration

12
Examples
The hydrogen ion concentration of a fruit juice is
3.3 x 10-2 M. What is the pH of the juice? Is it
acidic or basic?
pH = − log( 3.3 × 10 −2 ) = − ( −1.48) = 1.48 (acidic)
If a solution has pH of 5.50, calculate its [OH-]
14 = pH + pOH
pOH = 14.00 − 5.50 = 8.50
pOH = − log[OH − ]
log[OH − ] = −8.50

pH of Strong Acids and Bases
Dissociation of a strong base:

NaOH Na+ + OH-


complete dissociation of a base
and no base in the form of NaOH will be left in solution

pOH = -log[OH-]

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 + log [OH-]
