Introduction:
In all the three states of matter, the gaseous state is the simplest state of matter.
The gaseous state is characterized by the following physical properties:
i) Gases are highly compressible
ii) Gases exert pressure equally in all directions.
iii) Gases have much lower density than solids and liquids.
iv) Gases do not have fixed volume and shape. They acquire the shape and volume of the
container.
v) Gases mix evenly and completely in all proportions without any mechanical aid.

Measurable Properties Of Gases:

The state of a gas is described by the relationship of variables such as mass, volume,
temperature and pressure. These are the measurable properties.

a) Mass: The mass of a gas can be determined experimentally by weighing the container
containing the gas and then taking the weight of the empty container. The difference
in the two weights gives the mass of the gas. The amount of gas can expressed in
terms of number of moles.

b) Volume: Gases do not have definite volume. As a gas fills the whole of the vessel in
which it is put, the volume of the gas is equal to volume of the container.
S.I unit of volume is . Other commonly used units are (or) . (or) milliliter
(or) litre.
222GASEOUS STATE – I

c) Pressure: Gases exert pressure (or) outward force on the walls of the container in
which they are enclosed. This force is due to the collision between gas molecules and
also with the walls of the container this force per unit area is called pressure.
Units:

In other words;

SI unit of force

Temperature: It may be defined as the degree of hotness.

i) Temperature can be measured in terms of the effect that its charge produces on other
measurable properties such as expansion of objects.
ii) Expansion of mercury in a thermometer is commonly used for the measurement of
temperature.

Units: SI unit of temperature is Kelvin.

Other units of temperature is Celsius scale and Farenheit scale

Gas Laws: Gas laws give the relation between the different measurable properties of gases.

Boyle’s law: The first quantitative relationship between the volume and pressure of a gas
studied by Robert Boyle.
This law states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure
at constant temperature.

Hence, (or)
This is Boyle’s law.

Graph Between P and V: The graph between P and V is a curve known as hyperbola.
constant (rectangular hyperbola)

(where m & C are constant)

The graphs drawn at constant temperature are knows as Isotherms.

Consider Ideal gas equation to explain the following graphs

Following are some other curves for Boyle’s law

Extension of Boyle’s law: We can draw a relation between pressure and density of a given mass
of gas at constant temperature as follows.

as per Boyle’s law

Charle’s law: This law given the relation between the volume and absolute temperature. It
“states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute
temperature, provided the pressure remains constant”

According to charle’s observation, the volume of a given mass of a gas at constant pressure

increases (or) decreases by of its volume at for every degree rise (or) fall of its
temperature respectively.

Where volume of the gas at

volume of the gas at
Based on charle’s observation, the volume occupied by the gas at the lowest possible
temperature i.e, should be expected to be zero. This temperature is called absolute
zero.
All the properties of the gases become zero at absolute zero.

Graph Between V and T: The graph between V and T is a straight line passing through origin.
 225
GASEOUS STATE – I

The graphs drawn at constant pressures are knows as Isobars.

Importance Of Charle’s Law:

The use of hot air balloons in sports and for meteorological observations is an application of
charle’s law.
Gases expand on heating occupy more volume, thus hot air is less denser than cold air. This
causes hot air balloons to rise.

Gay-Lussac’s Law: This law is similar to charle’s law and is given by Joseph Gay-Lussac. It
describes the pressure-temperature relationship of gases at constant volume. It is also called
as Amonton’s law.

“The pressure of a given mass of a gas increases (or) decrease by of its pressure at
for every rise (or) fall in temperature.

Mathematically,

(or)
The value of K depends upon the volume of the gas, the amount of the gas, and the units of
pressure (P).

The graph drawn between pressure and temperature at constant volume is called an
Isochoric.
Other representation,
222GASEOUS STATE – I

Graph Between P and T: The graph drawn between P & T at constant volume is the straight
line passing through origin.

Avogadro’s Law:
This law relates the volume of gas to the number of molecules at constant temperature and
pressure. It was given by Amodeo Avogadro.
It states that, “equal volumes of all gases under similar conditions of temperature and
pressure contain equal number of molecules (or) moles”.

no. of moles (n) (or) no. of molecules (N)

The number of molecules in 1 mol of a gas has been determined to be and is

known as Avogadro’s constant.

 Dalton’s Law Of Partial Pressures

 Aqueous Tension
 Partial Pressure In Terms Of Mole Fraction

DALTON’S Law Of Partial Pressures:

The law states that “at constant temperature, the total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-
reactive gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of individual gases”
i) The pressure exerted by the individual gases is called partial pressure.
ii) If is the total pressure of the mixture of non-reacting gases at temperature T and
volume V.
iii) …… represent the partial pressures of the gases.

Aqueous Tension: When gases are collected over water, being most due to water vapour, their
recorded pressure is equal to the sum of actual pressure of the dry gas and pressure of the
water vapour.
This pressure of water vapour is called aqueous tension of water at that temperature of
measurement.

Partial Pressures In Terms Of Mole Fraction:Suppose at temperature three gases enclosed in the
volume V exert partial pressures respectively.

 Kinetic Molecular Theory Of Gases

 Postulates
 Derivation Of Gas Laws From Kinetic Equation

Kinetic Molecular Theory Of Gases:

This theory was developed to give theoretical explanation of various gas laws. This is also
called as a microscopic model of gases since it is related to atoms & molecules which are very
small.

Postulates:
i) All gases are made up of a very large number of extremely small particles called
molecules. All the molecules of a particular gas are identical in mass and size.
ii) The molecules are separated from one another by large spaces. Hence, the actual
volume occupied by the molecules is negligible as compared to the total volume of the
gas.
iii) The attraction (or) repulsion between the gas molecules are negligible as they are
separated by large distance.
iv) The gas molecules are always in random motion. During their motion, they collide
with one another and also with the walls of the container.
v) These collisions with each other and with walls of the container are perfectly elastic
i.e., there is no loss (or) gain of kinetic energy.
vi) The pressure exerted on the walls of the container is due to the bombardment of the
molecules on the walls of the container.
vii) Since the molecules are moving with different velocities, they possess different kinetic
energies. However, the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a gas is directly
proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

From above postulates,

Pressure of gas number of gas molecules
Volume of gas root means square speed
mass of gas molecule,
For 1 mol of the gas,

For 1 mol of an ideal gas,

If then
By (3) and (4) equations, we get

From kinetic gas equation, we can conclude that under the similar conditions of

pressure and temperature , equation volumes of two gases contain

same number of molecules. This is Avogadro’s hypothesis

e) Graham’s Law Of Diffusion:

The rate of diffusion (or) effusion can be assumed to be directly proportional to the
root mean square speed.

Thus,
