Since V and T are the same for all gases in the mixture
n is proportional to P

Consider the following reaction
Molecules are in
constant motion
Collisions with
container cause
pressure
There is much

Mean Free Path
Molecules in a gas travel in
straight lines until they collide
with another molecule or the
container
28
Diffusion
The process of a collection of molecules spreading
out from high concentration to low concentration is
called diffusion
29
Effusion
30
Graham’s Law of Effusion and
Diffusion
For two different gases at the same temperature,
the ratio of their rates of effusion or diffusion is
given by Graham’s Law
31
A sample of N2 gas was found to effuse 3.2 times
faster than an unknown gas. What is the molecular
weight of the unknown gas?

Definition of an Ideal Gas
Molecules of an Ideal gas at so small that
they take up no volume

The Effect of Intermolecular
Attractions
At low temperature, the attractions between the
molecules is more significant
the intermolecular attractions makes the real
pressure less than predicted by the Ideal Gas Law
