THE GASEOUS STATE AND GAS LAW
Volume of gas
The volume of a gas = volume of container.
Pressure of a gas
The force acting on a unit area is the pressure of the gas.

Pressure of gas =
Area
Temperature of a gas
At any low temperature, the particles of a gas are moving with slow speed. If the
temperature is increased, they move faster resulting in the more frequent collisions on the
container.
Gas Laws
Pressure - Volume Behavior
Boyle’s Law
When the temperature of a given mass of gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas
is inversely proportional to its pressure.

Volume-Temperature Behavior
Absolute Zero temperature
If the constant contraction rate is continued, the volume of the gas will become zero
at -273°C. This temperature is known as absolute zero temperature or the zero point of a
new scale temperature (Kelvin temperature).
Absolute zero temperature = -273°C or 0 K
TK = t°C + 273
T denoted by Kelvin temperature, t denoted by Celsius temperature
Charles’ Law
When the pressure of a given mass of gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is
directly proportional to its temperature on the Kelvin scale.

V = constant x T

same pressure?

Avogadro’s Theory
At the same temperature and pressure, equal volume of all gases contain the same
number of molecules.
Mathematical expression
Vα n (at same temperature and pressure)
n = number of molecules.
V = volume of gas
Avogadro’s number
The number of particles as there are atoms in 12g of 12C is known as Avogadro’s
number.
Relative density of a gas is equivalent to half of the relative molecular mass of the gas.
Mathematical expression
Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 +..........(temperature is kept constant)
Ptotal = total pressure of gas mixture
P1, P2, P3,.. = partial pressure of different gas
Example (7) The pressure of hydrogen collected over water at 27°C is 776.7 mmHg. The
vapour pressure of water at 27°C is 26.7 mmHg. What is the pressure of dry

between the molecules of another gas is known as diffusion.
