Plot of pressure (P) versus volume (V) at constant temperature for a given amount of a gas. Such a graph is called an isotherm .
Some Basic Definitions
• 2.3 Boyle’s Law
• P1V1 = P2V2
Some Basic Definitions
• 2.4 Charles’ and Gay – Lussac’s Law
• P α T or P/T = constant
Some Basic Definitions
• To relate the volume/temperature and
pressure/temperature values of a gas in states
1 and 2:
• V1/T1 = V2/T2 (constant n and P)
• 1 L= 1 x 10-3 m3
• 1Pa = 1N m-2
Some Basic Definitions
Some Basic Definitions
• From the two values of R, we can write:
• 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1 = 8.314 J K-1 mol-1
• or
• 1 L atm= 101.3 J
• and
• 1 J = 9.87 x 10-3 L atm
Example 2.1
• Air entering the lungs ends up in tiny sacs
called alveoli, from which oxygen diffuses into
the blood. The average radius of the alveoli is
0.0050 cm, and the air inside contains 14 mole
percent oxygen. Assuming that the pressure in
the alveoli is 1.0 atm and the temperature is
37 °C, calculate the number of oxygen
molecules in one of the alveoli.

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures
• where P1, P2,... are the individual or partial
pressures of components 1,2,...
(800L)2
P = 195 atm
Answer to Exercise 2.3 (con’t.)
• (b) For an ideal gas, Equation 2.8 becomes:
• P = nRT/V
• P = (2000mol)(0.08206 L atm /mol K)(898 K)
(800 L)
P = 184 atm
The Virial Equation of State
The Virial Equation of State
• In this relationship, the compressibility factor is
expressed as a series expansion in inverse powers
of molar volume V:
• B, C, D, are called the second, third, fourth,...
virial coefficients.
• An alternate form of the virial equation is given
by a series expansion of the compressibility
factor in terms of the pressure, P:
