6. 1. Ideal Gases, Experimental Laws and the
Equation of State
1.1 Notions
► Properties of gases
A gas does not have a fixed volume or pressure
In a container, the gas expands to fill the container
► Ideal gas
Collection of atoms or molecules that move randomly
Molecules exert no long-range force on one another
Molecules occupy a negligible fraction of the
volume of their container
► Most gases at room temperature
and pressure behave approximately
as an ideal gas
7. 1.2
Moles
► It’s convenient to express the amount of gas in
a given volume in terms of the number of
moles, n
mass
n
molar mass
=
► One mole is the amount of the substance that
contains as many particles as there are atoms
in 12 g of carbon-12
8. 1.3 Avogadro’s Hypothesis
“Equal volumes of gas at the same temperature and
pressure contain the same numbers of molecules”
Corollary: At standard temperature and pressure, one
mole quantities of all gases contain the same number of
molecules
This number is called NA
Can also look at the total number of particles: AN nN=
The number of particles in a mole is called

30. 2 Molecular Model of an Ideal Gas
2.1 Assumptions of the molecular model of an ideal
gas
• A container with volume V contains a very large number N of
identical molecules, each with mass m.
• The molecules behave as point particles; their size is small in
comparison to the average distance between particles and to the
dimensions of the container.
• The molecules are in constant
motion; they obey Newton's laws
of motion. Each molecule collides
occasionally with a wall of the
container. These collisions are
perfectly elastic.
• The container walls are perfectly
rigid and infinitely massive and do
not move.

d containing an ideal gas. The molecule

51. 2.4 The mean free path
• A molecule moving through a gas
collides with other molecules in a random
fashion.
Notion of the mean free path
• Between collisions, the molecules move with constant
speed along straight lines. The average distance between
collisions is called the mean free path.
52. The mean free path for a gas molecule
• Consider N spherical molecules with radius r in a volume V.
Suppose only one molecule is moving.
• When it collides with another molecule,
the distance between centers is 2r.
• In a short time dt a molecule with speed v
travels a distance vdt ; during this time it
collides with any molecule that is in the
cylindrical volume of radius 2r and length vdt.
