Kinetic Molecular Theory ki⋅net⋅ic 1. pertaining to motion. 2. caused by motion. 3. characterized by movement: Running and dancing are kinetic activities. Origin: 1850– 55; < Gk kīnētikós moving, equiv. to kīnē(verbid s. of kīneîn to move) + -tikos Source: Websters Dictionary
The Nature of Gases q Gases expand to fill their containers q Gases are fluid – they flow q Gases have low density q 1/1000 the density of the equivalent liquid or solid q Gases are compressible q Gases effuse and diffuse
Kinetic Molecular Theory q Particles of matter are ALWAYS in motion q Volume of individual particles is zero. q Collisions of particles with container walls cause the pressure exerted by gas. q Particles exert no forces on each other. q Average kinetic energy is proportional to Kelvin temperature of a gas.
Kinetic Energy of Gas Particles At the same conditions of temperature, all gases have the same average kinetic energy. m = mass v = velocity At the same temperature, small molecules move FASTER than large molecules
The Meaning of Temperature q Kelvin temperature is an index of the random motions of gas particles (higher T means greater motion. ) q R= 8. 3145 J/K mol
Root Mean Square Velocity • MW in Kg
Diffusion q Diffusion describes the mixing of gases. The rate of diffusion is the rate of gas mixing. q Diffusion is the result of random movement of gas molecules q The rate of diffusion increases with temperature q Small molecules diffuse faster than large molecules
Effusion: describes the passage of gas into an evacuated chamber.
Graham’s Law of Effusion M 1 = Molar Mass of gas 1 M 2 = Molar Mass of gas 2
