Ideal Gas Law
The ideal gas law relates the variables of pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of gas within a closed system.
The ideal gas law: PV = nRT
P = Pressure of the confined gas in atmospheres (atm) V = Volume of the confined gas, in liters (L) n = Number of moles of gas in moles (mol)
T = Temperature in Kelvin (K)
R = Ideal Gas Constant equal= 0.082057 L·atm/mol·K R = 0.082057 L·atm/mol·K
R= 62.364 L Torr mol-1 K-1 R= 8.3145 m3 Pa mol-1 K-1 R= 8.3145 J mol-1 K-1

Chapter 7: Ideal & Real Gases
Conditions for a gas to behave as predicted by the ideal gas law:
1. The molecules do not occupy any space; they are infinitesimally small.
2. No attractive forces exist between the molecules so the molecules move completely independently of each other.
3. The gas molecules move in random, straight-line motion.
4. The collisions between the molecules, and between the molecules and the walls of the container, are perfectly elastic.
These condition are met at: high temperature and low pressure.

where pi is the partial pressure of component i in the mixture.

Material Balances Involving Ideal Gases:
Example 7.5 : Material Balance without Reaction
Gas at 15°C and 105 kPa is flowing through an irregular duct. To determine the rate of flow of the gas, CO2 from a tank is passed into the gas stream.
The gas analyzes 1.2% CO2 by volume before and 3.4% CO2 by volume after the addition.
As the CO2 that was injected left the tank, it was passed through a rotameter, and found to flow at the rate of 0.0917 m3/min at 7°C and 131 kPa.
What was the rate of flow of the entering gas in the duct in cubic meters per minute?

Chapter 7: Real Gases
• Real Gases are gases whose behavior does not conform to the assumptions underlying ideality.
• The ideal gas equation of state(PV=nRT) is not sufficient to describe the P,V, and T behaviour of most real gases.
Real gases depart from ideal behavior at:
• High pressure.
• Low temperature
Ideal gas gases :
• Low pressure.
• High temperature
22
Chapter 7: Real Gases: Compressibility
Corresponding States
• The law of corresponding states expresses the idea that in the critical state all substances should behave alike.
Critical state (point)
• For a pure component it means: the maximum temperature and corresponding pressure at which liquid and vapor can coexist.
• The critical state for the gas-liquid transition is the set of physical conditions at which the density and other properties of the liquid and vapor become identical.
• A supercritical fluid is a compound in a state above its critical point (Pc,Tc)
Water Tc=373.946 °C (647.096 K) Pc= 217.7 atm (22.06 MPa)
