Pressure
Pressure is defined as the force the gas exerts on a given
area of the container in which it is contained. The SI unit
for pressure is the Pascal, Pa.
Units of Pressure
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 760 torr = 101325 Pa

mmHg
Mercury in the column flows out of
tube until its pressure is equal to
the pressure of the air exerted on
the mercury in dish.
Barometer (Torricelli) 6
How to Increase Gas Pressure
• The pressure that a gas exerts depends on how often and how
hard these molecules strike the walls of the container.
P x V = constant
This defines an inverse relationship, when one of these
factors goes up, the other comes down and vice-versa.

Boyle’s Law (P x V = constant)
P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
Solution: P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

Avogadro’s Law
This law describes the relationship between the
volume (V) and the number of moles of gas (n).
This law is obeyed closely by gases at low
pressures.
He determined that for a gas at constant pressure and
temperature V = constant

This defines a direct relationship, when one of these factors
increases there is an increase in the other.

Mole Fractions
A mole fraction is the ratio of the number of moles of a
given component in a mixture to the total number of moles
in the mixture. Mole fractions have the symbol c (chi).

A sample of natural gas contains 8.24 moles of methane,CH4,
0.421 moles of ethane, C2H6, and 0.116 moles of propane, C3H8.

• There are two containers connected by a valve. One holds
4.0 L of N2 at 2.0 atm the other holds 2.0 L of O2 at 8.0
atm.
• The valve is opened. What is
– The pressure of N2 ?
– The pressure of O2 ?
– The total pressure?
Nitrogen point of view ---> (2.0 atm) (4.0 L) = (x) (6.0 L); x = 1.3 atm
Oxygen point of view ---> (8.0 atm) (2.0 L) = (y) (6.0 L); y = 2.7 atm
