17 Applying the Volume-Pressure Relationship PROBLEM: Boyle s apprentice finds that the air trapped in a J tube occupies 24.8 cm 3 at 1.12 atm. By adding mercury to the tube, he increases the pressure on the trapped air to 2.64 atm. Assuming constant temperature, what is the new volume of air (in L)? PLAN: 5-17

18 Applying the Volume-Pressure Relationship SOLUTION: n and T are constant and P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 P 1 = 1.12 atm V 1 = 24.8 cm 3 (convert to L) 24.8 cm 3 1 ml L 1 cm ml x x P 2 = 2.64 atm V 2 = unknown = L P 1 V 1 P 2 V 2 = n 1 T 1 n 2 T 2 P 1 V 2 = x = V 1 P atm x L 2.46 atm = L 5-18

19 Applying the Pressure-Temperature Relationship PROBLEM: A steel tank used for fuel delivery is fitted with a safety valve that opens if the internal pressure exceeds 1.00 x 10 3 torr. It is filled with methane at 23 o C and atm and placed in boiling water at exactly 100 o C. Will the safety valve open? PLAN: 5-19

20 Applying the Pressure-Temperature Relationship SOLUTION: V and n remain constant and P 1 = atm (convert to torr) P 2 = unknown P 1 P 2 = T 1 T 2 T 1 = 23 o C (convert to K) T 2 = 100 o C (convert to K) P 1 V 1 P 2 V 2 = n 1 T 1 n 2 T atm x 760 torr = 753 torr 1 atm P 2 = P 1 x T 2 T 1 = 753 torr x 373 K 296 K = 949 torr 5-20

21 Solving for an Unknown Gas Variable at Fixed PROBLEM: PLAN: Conditions A steel tank has a volume of 438 L and is filled with kg of O2. Calculate the pressure of O2 at 21oC. V, T and mass, which can be converted to moles (n), are given. We use the ideal gas law to find P. SOLUTION: kg x V = 438 L T = 21oC n = kg O2 (convert to mol) P = unknown 103 g kg x mol O g O2 = 27.7 mol O mol x P= 5-21 nrt V = 438 L atm L mol K (convert to K) 21oC = 294 K x 294 K = 1.53 atm

23 PROBLEM: Using Gas Variables to Find Amounts of Reactants or Products Copper reacts with oxygen impurities in the ethylene used to produce polyethylene. The copper is regenerated when hot H 2 reduces the copper(ii) oxide, forming the pure metal and H 2 O. What volume of H 2 at 765 torr and 225 o C is needed to reduce 35.5 g of copper(ii) oxide? PLAN: Since this problem requires stoichiometry and the gas laws, we have to write a balanced equation, use the moles of Cu to calculate moles of H 2 and then volume of H 2 gas. 5-23

24 Using Gas Variables to Find Amounts of Reactants or Products SOLUTION: 35.5 g CuO x CuO(s) + H2(g) mol CuO g CuO mol H2 x x Cu(s) + H2O(g) 1 mol H2 1 mol Cu atm L mol K x 1.01 atm 5-24 = mol H2 498 K = 18.1 L

25 Using the Ideal Gas Law in a Limiting-Reactant Problem PROBLEM: The alkali metals [Group 1A(1)] react with the halogens [Group 7A(17)] to form ionic metal halides. What mass of potassium chloride forms when 5.25 L of chlorine gas at atm and 293 K reacts with 17.0 g of potassium? PLAN: After writing the balanced equation, we use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of reactants, the limiting reactant and moles of product. SOLUTION: 2K(s) + Cl 2 (g) P = atm V = 5.25 L 2KCl(s) T = 293K n = unknown Cl 2 n Cl 2 = PV RT = atm x 5.25 L atm L x 293 K mol K = mol Cl g K x mol K g K = mol K

26 Using the Ideal Gas Law in a Limiting-Reactant Problem SOLUTION: mol Cl2 x mol K x 2 mol KCl 1 mol Cl2 2 mol KCl 2 mol K = mol KCl formed = mol KCl formed Cl2 is the limiting reactant mol KCl x g KCl mol KCl 5-26 = 30.9 g KCl

27 5-27 Sample Problems

28 5-28 A sample of chlorine gas is confined in a 5.0-L container at 328 torr and 37 C. How many moles of gas are in the sample?

29 Plan: Given the volume, pressure, and temperature of a gas, the number of moles of the gas can be calculated using the ideal gas equation, PV = nrt. The gas constant, R = L atm/mol K, gives pressure in atmospheres and temperature in Kelvin. The given pressure in torr must be converted to atmospheres and the temperature converted to Kelvin. Solution: PV = nrt 1 atm 760 torr or n = PV/RT P = 328 torr = atm; V = 5.0 L; T = 37 C = 310 K PV ( atm)(5.0 L) n= RT L atm (310 K) mol K = = mol chlorine 5-29

30 What is the effect of the following on the volume of 1 mol of an ideal gas? (a) The pressure is tripled (at constant T). (b) The absolute temperature is increased by a factor of 3.0 (at constant P). 5-30

31 Plan: Use the relationship Solution: PV a) As the pressure on a gas increases, the molecules move closer together, decreasing the volume. When the pressure is tripled, the volume decreases to one third of the original volume at constant temperature (Boyle s Law). V 2 V 2 = ⅓V T = P V T 1 2 V1 PT 1 2 ( V1 )( P1 )(1) = = P T (3 P )(1) b) As the temperature of a gas increases, the gas molecules gain kinetic energy. With higher energy, the gas molecules collide with the walls of the container with greater force, which increases the size (volume) of the container. If the temperature is increased by a factor of 3.0 (at constant pressure) then the volume will increase by a factor of 3.0 (Charles s Law). V 2 V1 PT 1 2 ( V1 )(1)(3 T1 ) = = P T (1)( T ) V 2 = 3V

32 How many grams of phosphorus react with 35.5 L of O 2 at STP to form tetraphosphorus decaoxide? P 4 (s) 5O 2 (g) + P 4 O 10 (s) 5-32

33 Plan: We can find the moles of oxygen from the standard molar volume of gases (1 L of gas occupies 22.4 L at STP) and use the stoichiometric ratio from the balanced equation to determine the moles of phosphorus that will react with the oxygen. Solution: P 4 (s) + 5 O 2 (g) P 4 O 10 (s) Mass P4 = LO 2 1 molo 1 mol P g P 22.4 L O 5 mol O 1 mol P = = 39.3 g P

34 How many grams of phosphine (PH3) can form when 37.5 g of phosphorus and 83.0 L of hydrogen gas react at STP? P 4 (s) + H 2 (g) PH 3 (g) [unbalanced] 5-34

35 Plan: To find the mass of PH 3, write the balanced equation and find the number of moles of PH 3 produced by each reactant. The smaller number of moles of product indicates the limiting reagent. Solve for moles of H 2 using the ideal gas equation. Solution: From the ideal gas equation: P 4 (s) + 6 H 2 (g) 4 PH 3 (g) Moles hydrogen = mol H 2 (unrounded) PH 3 from P 4 = g P 4 1 mol P 4 mol PH g P 1 mol P 4 4 = mol PH 3 PH 3 from H 2 = P 4 is the limiting reactant mol H 2 4 mol PH 6 mol H2 = mol PH 3 Mass PH 3 = g P 4 1 mol P 4 mol PH g PH g P 1 mol P 1 mol PH = = 41.2 g PH
