Understanding Partial Pressures and Gas Behavior in Honors Chemistry

In this Honors Chemistry lesson with Mr. Fredericks, students will explore the concepts of partial pressures, diffusion, and effusion through engaging activities. The class begins with a creative challenge to “Destroy Tokyo” using unconventional tools to illustrate gas behaviors. Key objectives include learning how to calculate total pressure using the formula P_total = P1 + P2 + P3, and discussing gas motion in different contexts. Students will prepare for an upcoming quiz on Friday and complete assigned problems related to partial pressure from their textbook.

  1. Honors Chemistry Mr. Fredericks 2009-2010

  2. Tuesday, January 26th • Do Now: • Destroy Tokyo. Your tools are a paper clip, a rubber band, a pair of tube socks, and a ballpoint pen (no ink). • Objectives: • Learn about partial pressures, diffusion, and effusion. • Homework: • Quiz on Friday. • Read 14.4. Do problems #31, 34, 35

  3. Partial Pressure • Add ‘em up!Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 and so on • Typically used in kPa, but sometimes as percentages. • If you’re having trouble, you’re overthinking it.

  4. Random Motion of Gasses Diffusion Effusion Rate of escape Assume a tiny hole Low molar mass means high effusion • Rate of spread • Assume no physical barriers • Low molar mass means high diffusion
