The properties of gases This chapter establishes the properties of gases that will be used throughout the text. It begins with an account of an idealized version of a gas, a perfect gas, and shows how its equation of state may be assembled experimentally. We then see how the properties of real gases differ from those of a perfect gas, and construct an equation of state that describes their properties. The simplest state of matter is a gas, a form of matter that fills any container it occupies. Initially we consider only pure gases, but later in the chapter we see that the same ideas and equations apply to mixtures of gases too. The perfect gas We shall find it helpful to picture a gas as a collection of molecules (or atoms) in continuous random motion, with average speeds that increase as the temperature is raised. A gas differs from a liquid in that, except during collisions, the molecules of a gas are widely separated from one another and move in paths that are largely unaffected by intermolecular forces. 1.1 The states of gases The physical state of a sample of a substance, its physical condition, is defined by its physical properties. Two samples of a substance that have the same physical properties are in the same state. The state of a pure gas, for example, is specified by giving its volume, V, amount of substance (number of moles), n, pressure, p, and temperature, T. However, it has been established experimentally that it is sufficient to specify only three of these variables, for then the fourth variable is fixed. That is, it is an experimental fact that each substance is described by an equation of state, an equation that interrelates these four variables. The general form of an equation of state is p = f(T,V,n) (1.1) This equation tells us that, if we know the values of T, V, and n for a particular substance, then the pressure has a fixed value. Each substance is described by its own equation of state, but we know the explicit form of the equation in only a few special cases. One very important example is the equation of state of a ‘perfect gas’, which has the form p = nRT/V, where R is a constant. Much of the rest of this chapter will examine the origin of this equation of state and its applications. 1 The perfect gas 1.1 The states of gases 1.2 The gas laws I1.1 Impact on environmental science: The gas laws and the weather Real gases 1.3 Molecular interactions 1.4 The van der Waals equation 1.5 The principle of corresponding states Checklist of key ideas Further reading Discussion questions Exercises Problems

4 1 THE PROPERTIES OF GASES (a) Pressure Pressure is defined as force divided by the area to which the force is applied. The greater the force acting on a given area, the greater the pressure. The origin of the force exerted by a gas is the incessant battering of the molecules on the walls of its container. The collisions are so numerous that they exert an effectively steady force, which is experienced as a steady pressure. The SI unit of pressure, the pascal (Pa), is defined as 1 newton per metre-squared: 1 Pa = 1 N m−2 [1.2a] In terms of base units, 1 Pa = 1 kg m−1 s −2 [1.2b] Several other units are still widely used (Table 1.1); of these units, the most commonly used are atmosphere (1 atm = 1.013 25 × 105 Pa exactly) and bar (1 bar = 105 Pa). A pressure of 1 bar is the standard pressure for reporting data; we denote it p7 . Self-test 1.1 Calculate the pressure (in pascals and atmospheres) exerted by a mass of 1.0 kg pressing through the point of a pin of area 1.0 × 10−2 mm2 at the surface of the Earth. Hint. The force exerted by a mass m due to gravity at the surface of the Earth is mg, where g is the acceleration of free fall (see endpaper 2 for its standard value). [0.98 GPa, 9.7 × 103 atm] If two gases are in separate containers that share a common movable wall (Fig. 1.1), the gas that has the higher pressure will tend to compress (reduce the volume of) the gas that has lower pressure. The pressure of the high-pressure gas will fall as it expands and that of the low-pressure gas will rise as it is compressed. There will come a stage when the two pressures are equal and the wall has no further tendency to move. This condition of equality of pressure on either side of a movable wall (a ‘piston’) is a state of mechanical equilibrium between the two gases. The pressure of a gas is therefore an indication of whether a container that contains the gas will be in mechanical equilibrium with another gas with which it shares a movable wall. (b) The measurement of pressure The pressure exerted by the atmosphere is measured with a barometer. The original version of a barometer (which was invented by Torricelli, a student of Galileo) was an inverted tube of mercury sealed at the upper end. When the column of mercury is in mechanical equilibrium with the atmosphere, the pressure at its base is equal to that Comment 1.1 The International System of units (SI, from the French Système International d’Unités) is discussed in Appendix 1.

However, if the two pressures are identical, the wall will not move (b). The latter condition is one of mechanical equilibrium between the two regions

Example 1.1 Calculating the pressure exerted by a column of liquid Derive an equation for the pressure at the base of a column of liquid of mass density ρ (rho) and height h at the surface of the Earth. Method Pressure is defined as p = F/A where F is the force applied to the area A, and F = mg. To calculate F we need to know the mass m of the column of liquid, which is its mass density, ρ, multiplied by its volume, V: m = ρV. The first step, therefore, is to calculate the volume of a cylindrical column of liquid. Answer Let the column have cross-sectional area A; then its volume is Ah and its mass is m = ρAh. The force the column of this mass exerts at its base is F = mg = ρAhg The pressure at the base of the column is therefore (1.3) Note that the pressure is independent of the shape and cross-sectional area of the column. The mass of the column of a given height increases as the area, but so does the area on which the force acts, so the two cancel. Self-test 1.2 Derive an expression for the pressure at the base of a column of liquid of length l held at an angle θ (theta) to the vertical (1). [p = ρgl cos θ] The pressure of a sample of gas inside a container is measured by using a pressure gauge, which is a device with electrical properties that depend on the pressure. For instance, a Bayard–Alpert pressure gauge is based on the ionization of the molecules present in the gas and the resulting current of ions is interpreted in terms of the pressure. In a capacitance manometer, the deflection of a diaphragm relative to a fixed electrode is monitored through its effect on the capacitance of the arrangement. Certain semiconductors also respond to pressure and are used as transducers in solid-state pressure gauges. (c) Temperature The concept of temperature springs from the observation that a change in physical state (for example, a change of volume) can occur when two objects are in contact with one another, as when a red-hot metal is plunged into water. Later (Section 2.1) we shall see that the change in state can be interpreted as arising from a flow of energy as heat from one object to another. The temperature, T, is the property that indicates the direction of the flow of energy through a thermally conducting, rigid wall. If energy flows from A to B when they are in contact, then we say that A has a higher temperature than B (Fig. 1.2). It will prove useful to distinguish between two types of boundary that can separate the objects. A boundary is diathermic (thermally conducting) if a change of state is observed when two objects at different temperatures are brought into contact.1 A p F A Ahg A == = gh ρ ρ Low temperature High temperature Low temperature High temperature Diathermic wall Energy as heat Equal temperatures (a) (b) (c) Fig. 1.2 Energy flows as heat from a region at a higher temperature to one at a lower temperature if the two are in contact through a diathermic wall, as in (a) and (c). However, if the two regions have identical temperatures, there is no net transfer of energy as heat even though the two regions are separated by a diathermic wall (b). The latter condition corresponds to the two regions being at thermal equilibrium
