Kinetic Molecular Theory notes
Before you begin your studies of Kinetic Molecular Theory, you need to know what the word means. Kinetic refers to things in motion; molecular deals with molecules; a theory is a hypothesis that has been supported with experimental evidence. Now, we need to define terms. You know what these terms are, but for the discussion of this unit, we will define them differently than normal.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a sample. Since KE = ½ mv2, the change in temperature of a sample is caused by a change in velocity (speed) of the molecules in that sample.
Volume of a sample is the space that the particles take up (not much differently than it is normally thought of).
Pressure of a gas sample is caused by the molecules of that sample colliding with the walls of the container. Pressure = Force / Area, so in order for a gas to exert more pressure on its container, there must be more collisions or more forceful collisions.
Kinetic Molecular Theory is guided by the following assumptions:
1. The molecules of an ideal gas (an ideal gas is a gas that follows the assumptions of kinetic molecular theory) are in constant, random, straight-line motion. Gas molecules are constantly moving very, very fast and their direction is completely random. They move in straight lines within their container.
2. The molecules in an ideal gas can be considered dimensionless points. This assumption can be made because molecules are very, very small compared with the empty space in a gas sample. Therefore, you can assume that the volume of a gas sample is equal to the size of the container that it is held.
3. The collisions between molecules in an ideal gas with each other and the walls of its container are completely elastic. Elastic collisions mean that no energy is lost or gained when the molecules collide.
4. There are no attractive or repulsive forces in an ideal gas. This means that the molecules of an ideal gas do not like or hate each other, they are indifferent. If they pass by another gas molecule, they don’t even notice them, they just go about their
business. This assumption is totally false, but as long as the molecules of the gas have plenty of space, they really won’t interact with each other.
Consequences of KMT (Kinetic Molecular Theory)
When gas molecules follow these rules, the gas is said to be “ideal”. Most gases are ideal and will follow these rules. The only conditions under which these assumptions fail is when the gas sample is either under high pressure or at low temperatures. When a gas is compressed under high pressure, the gas is no longer mostly empty space, so assumption number 2 fails and the gas will condense to a liquid. When a gas is at low temperature, the molecules are moving slowly enough that they notice each other and assumption number 4 fails. Once the gas molecules realize that they are not alone, they start to feel attractive and/or repulsive forces and they will condense to a liquid.
Scientists and Gas Laws
Scientists started to conduct experiments with gases and they came up with equations to describe the relationships between the variables, temperature, volume, pressure, and moles of gas. Once you understand the assumptions of KMT and the definitions of the variables, the relationships make sense. Here are the scientists and their laws:
Boyle’s law – If you hold temperature and the amount of molecules in a gas sample constant, the pressure of a sample of gas is inversely proportional to the volume. In equation form this law is P x V = Constant number.
In English: If the speed of the molecules in a gas doesn’t change (Temperature constant), if you change the amount of space the molecules have, you will change the amount of times they collide with the walls of the container. If you have less space, you have more collisions and vice versa.
Charles’ Law – If you hold the pressure and amount of molecules in a gas sample constant, the volume of a sample of gas is directly proportional to the temperature. In equation form this law is V/T = Constant number.
In English: If the frequency of the molecules collisions with the walls doesn’t change (Pressure constant), a change in the speed of the molecules requires a change in the amount of space they take up. If the molecules move faster, they need more room and vice versa.
Gay-Lussac’s Law – If you hold the volume and amount of molecules in a gas sample constant, the pressure of a sample of gas is directly proportional to the temperature. In equation form this law is P/T = Constant number.
In English: If the amount of space doesn’t change (Volume constant), a change in the speed of the molecules will result in a change in the collisions with the walls of the container. If the molecules move faster, they will hit the walls more often and with more force and vice versa.
Avogadro’s Law – If you hold the temperature and pressure of a gas sample constant, the volume of a gas sample is directly proportional to the number of molecules. In equation form this law is V/n = Constant number.
In English: If the speed of the molecules and the number of collisions with the walls of the container doesn’t change, when you change the amount of molecules, the amount of space they take up will change. If you add more molecules, they take up more space and vice versa.
Can you combine them?
If you combine all of the gas laws together, you get a gas law for all situations, as long as the gas behaves ideally. Strangely, chemists refer to this law as the ideal gas law.
P x V = n x R x T
Pressure times Volume = amount of moles times the Ideal Gas Constant times Kelvin Temperature. The Ideal Gas Constant is located on the back of your periodic table. In fact, a summary of gas laws is located on the back of the periodic table.
R = 0.0821 L atm/mol K OR 8.31 J/mol K
L = Liters, atm = atmospheres, mol = moles, K = Kelvin,
J = Joules = Liters x kilopascals
The key for gas law calculations is to keep the units the same. So, you need to know what the different units for each variable are and how to convert between them.
Pressure
• Atmospheres – this unit is abbreviated (atm) and was invented to be the standard unit for pressure. “Standard pressure” is defined as 1 atmosphere.
• Pascals – this unit is abbreviated (Pa) and is the force of 1 ant doing one push-up. You will see kiloPascals used more often. “Standard pressure” is equal to 101.3 kPa.
• Pounds per square inch – this unit is abbreviated (psi) and is commonly used in the English system. “Standard pressure” is equal to 14.7 psi.
• Barometric height – a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure. For a barometer, you measure the height of air supported by a column of mercury. “Standard pressure” is 760 mm Hg or 29.92 inches Hg.
Volume
• Liters – this is pretty much the only unit we will use for volume (L)
Temperature
• Fahrenheit – this is what we use in America, but no one else does. Celsius is more often used. Here’s the equation to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius: 0C = 5/9(0F – 32)
• Celsius – this is the standard international unit for temperature. If you want to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit: 0F = 9/50C + 32
• Kelvin – this is the unit you will use for gas law calculations. Kelvin is based on absolute zero, which is the temperature where all molecular motion will theoretically stop. A unit of Kelvin is equal to one degree Celsius, but they have different starting points for the scale. To convert from Celsius to Kelvin: K = 0C + 273.15
So now what to use it for (Sample Gas Law Calculations)
Here are the equations you will use for these problems:
|Boyle’s law: |Charles’ Law: |Gay-Lussac’s Law: |Avogadro’s Law: |
|P1V1 = P2V2 |V1/T1 = V2/T2 |P1/T1 = P2/T2 |V1/n1 = V2/n2 |
|Ideal Gas Law: |Combined Gas Law: |
|PV = nRT |P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 |

Conceptual Model of gases
In this chapter, we learned that the Kinetic Molecular Theory is related to gas behavior. To understand and predict the behavior of a contained gas in a quantitative manner, we need to recognize that there are only 4 physical properties involved:
1) Quantity of gas: usually expressed as moles, symbol n
2) Volume of gas, which describes , symbol V
3) Temperature of gas, which describes , symbol T

Consider each of the following situations. Decide how each of the four properties listed above is involved. Indicate as follows: I = increases; D = decreases; C = remains constant or no change.
1. On a very cold day in December, you take a basketball outside to shoot hoops in the driveway. After several minutes the basketball does not bounce as well. For the gas inside the ball, does each property I, D, or C? Has atmospheric pressure changed during this period?
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
2. On a cold autumn morning, a camper’s air mattress seems flatter than it was the afternoon before. Does each property I, D, or C?
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
3. You notice that one of your tires seems a little flat one morning, and decide to fill it with air at a gas station. By the time you get to the gas station it looks fine, and the pressure is normal. What has happened to the air in the tire?
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
4. You buy a bouquet of mylar helium balloons to surprise a friend for her (December) birthday. You leave the balloons in your car overnight and the next day they are soft and deflated. For the helium in the balloons:
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
Is the helium pressure in the “deflated” balloons equal to, less than, or greater than atmospheric pressure?
5. In a cryogenics lab, a scientist takes a small partially-filled balloon out of a canister of liquid nitrogen. As the balloon rests on the table, it grows in size. Evaluate each property for the gas in the balloon.
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
6. A scuba diver has her tank filled at the dive shop one summer morning. She then leaves the tank in the trunk of her car for a few hours. For the gas in the filled scuba tank:
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
7. One of your bike’s tires has a slow leak. For the air inside the tire:
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
If the leak continues, will all the air come out? Explain.
8. A welder uses oxygen for the combustion reaction in his oxyacetylene torch. At the beginning of the work day, the gauge of the tank indicates the pressure of the oxygen is 2250 psi. Evaluate the oxygen at the end of the day:
A) quantity B) volume C) temperature D) pressure
Real-World Examples: answer each in your own words.
1. Why do tire manufacturers recommend that you check the air pressure in your tires before driving the car more than a mile or after letting the car sit for three hours?
2. Why is it dangerous to throw aerosol containers (like hair spray cans) into a fire?
3. The largest container on popcorn on record was 106 m3. There is water vapor (a gas) inside popcorn kernels. Why does adding heat pop the kernel into corn?
4. Liquid nitrogen at a temperature of -47°C is poured onto a balloon, and the balloon shrinks rapidly. Explain what happens to the kinetic energy of the oxygen molecules in the balloon.
5. When you climb a mountain or ride in an elevator to the top of a skyscraper, your ears may “pop.” Explain this.
