  1. Grahm’s Law of Effusion Effusion Equation Application

  2. Review • Kinetic Molecular Theory • Gases have low density • Gas molecules interact in elastic collisions • Gas molecules are always in motion • There are no forces of attraction between gas molecules • The speed of gas molecules is proportional to the temperature • Pressure = Force / Area • Force - Newtons (N) ; Area - m2 ; Pressure = N / m2 = Pa • Units of Pressure • 1 atm = 760 mm of Hg = 760 torr = 101.3 kPa = 1.013 x 105 Pa

  3. Review • Partial Pressure • Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressure • Total Pressure = Pressure1 + Pressure2 • Stoichiometry of Gases • Avogadro’s Law • Volume, molecules, and mols of gases are all proportional to the coefficients of the balanced chemical equation • Standard Molar Volume • 22.4 L / mol of STP

  4. Introduction • Grahm’s law of effusion compares the rate at which two gases go through the same opening at the same temperature and pressure • This relationship can be used to determine the identity of unknown gases • Throughout the lecture form an answer to the following question • Why is there an inverse relationship between the molar mass of a gas and the rate at which it effuses?

  5. Diffusion & Effusion • Diffusion - spontaneous mixing of gas particles from a high concentration to a low concentration • Effusion - a process by which gas particles pass through a tiny opening What causes the particles to go through the opening?

  7. Kinetic Energy • Grahm’s law can be derived from comparing the kinetic energy of two gases at the same temperature • What is Kinetic energy? • Energy of motion • KE = 1/2 mv2 • Temperature determines the kinetic energy • At the same temperature, two gases will have the same KE

  8. What did we see? • Why did we only open the lid a little bit? • Why did we hold the temperature constant? • Which size of particle left the container more quickly?

  9. Derivation • KEA = KEB • 1/2 mA(vA)2 = 1/2 mB(vB)2 • mA(vA)2 =mB(vB)2 • mB mB • mA/ mB(vA)2 = (vB)2 • (vA)2 (vA)2 • mA/ mB = (vB)2 /(vA)2 • √ mA / √mB = vB / vA

  10. Grahm’s Law of Effusion • “the rates of the effusion of gases at the same temperature and pressure are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses” VA √MB = VB √MA

  11. What can we do with this formula? • Compare the rates of effusion of different gases • Which will gas will leave a container first • Which gas will fill a room first • Determine the identity of an unknown gas

  12. Basic Steps for Effusion Problems • Determine the givens and the unknowns • Rearrange equation to solve for unknown • Plug in known numbers • Calculate square roots first • Finish Solving Problem

  13. Examples • How much faster does Neon gas effuse than Xenon gas? • Molar Mass of Neon = 20.17 g/mol • Molar Mass of Xenon = 131.29 g/mol VA VNe VNe √MB √MXe √131.29 g/mol = = = VB √MA VXe √MNe VXe √20.17g/mol = 2.56 times

  14. Examples • If a sample of Helium gas effuses 6 times faster than an unknown sample of gas, what is the molar mass of the unknown gas? • Molar Mass of Helium = 4.00 g/mol VA √MB = VB √MA VHe 6VHe √MB = √MA = x x √4.00g/mol =144.00g/mol Vunknown Vunknown
