10、ple of gas consists of many identical molecules.The molecules are very far apart in comparison to their size;The direction of motion of any molecule is random;The molecules are treated as if they were hard spheres.The molecules obey Newtons laws of motion.,These assumptions constitute the definition

11、 of an ideal gas.Any gas that obeys the relations derived from these assumptions at all temperatures and pressures is called an ideal gas.,Pressure,Consider an ideal gas confined to a cubical box with sides of length L.The molecules of gas are moving in all directions and with various speeds.,A typi

21、=3,For a diatomic molecule,f=5,For a polyatomic molecule,f=6,Internal Energy of Ideal Gases,The internal energy Eint of an ideal gas is simply the sum of the kinetic energies of its molecules(or atoms for a monatomic ideal gas)because for an ideal gas no forces act between molecules,which means the

22、potential energy between molecules is zero.,Using k=R/NA and the number of moles=m/M,we can rewrite this as,Avogadros number NA(=6.021023),7-6 Mean Free Path,Molecules,even in a dilute ideal gas,undergo a vast number of collisions with each other about 5109/s in the air around us,which is about 105

23、collisions for each centimeter of path traveled.,The figure shows the path of a typical molecule as it moves through an ideal gas,changing both speed and direction abruptly as it collides elastically with other molecules.,distance traveled by a molecule between collisions,Mean free path:the average,

24、n is number density of the molecules.d is the molecular diameter.,Assume that a typical molecule“A”is traveling with aconstant speed v and that all the other molecules are at rest.We assume further that the molecules are spheres,of diameter d.A collision will then take place if the centers of molecu

25、les come within a distance d of each other.Namely,centers of molecules located within the zigzag cylinder will collide with molecule A.,In fact,all molecules are moving;when this is taken properly into account,Checkpoint 3,Example 7-3(a)What is the mean free path for oxygen molecules at temperature

27、ons for any given molecule?At what rate does the molecule collide;that is,what is the frequency f of its collisions?,Solution:,The average time between collisions is,The average rate or frequency f at which the collisions occur is the inverse of the time t between collisions:,This tells us that,on a

28、verage,any given oxygen molecule makes about 5 billion collisions per second.,7-7 The Distribution of Molecular Speeds,The root-mean-square speed vrms gives us a general idea of molecular speeds in a gas at a given temperature.We often want to know more.For example,what fraction of the molecules hav

29、e speeds greater than the rms value?Greater than twice the rms value?,According to the classical mechanics theory,the molecular speeds in a gas can have continuous values from zero to infinity.Therefore we need to group molecules according to their speed ranges,say,with 10 m/s speed interval to divi

30、de all possible speeds into 010,1020,2030 m/s,of speed ranges,and then describe how many molecules lie in each individual speed ranges.,The Speed Distribution Function,Consider a gas with total number of N molecules.Suppose the number of molecules with speeds betweenv and v dv is dN,then the speed d

31、istribution function is defined as,The physical meaning of the speed distributionfunction is the fraction of number of molecules per unit speed interval whose speeds centered on speed v.,The quantity f(v)is a probability distribution function.,is the fraction of molecules whose speeds lie in the int

32、erval of width dv centered on speed v.In other words,f(v)dv is the probability that a gas molecules speed is between v and v dv.,Maxwells Speed Distribution Law,In 1859,Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell worked out the speed distribution function of ideal gas molecules:,f(v)dv=the fraction of mo

33、lecules whose speeds lie in the interval of width dv centered,on speed v,or the probability that a gas molecules speed is between v and vdv.,the fraction of molecules whose speeds lie in v1 to v2:,The total area under the curve,Average,RMS,and Most Probable Speeds,Average speed,Substituting for f(v)

34、and taking the definite integral,Root-mean-square speed,The average of the square of the speeds,Substituting for f(v),we have,The most probable speed vp,is the speed at which f(v),is maximum,Set df(v)/dv=0 and then solve for v:,The curve changes with the temperatures or molar masses of gases.,If T2

35、T1 or M2M1.to keep the area is unity under the curve.,Checkpoint 4,Summary,Example 7-4 Suppose a sample of helium gas at temperature T=300 K contains N=106 atoms,each of mass m=6.651027 kg.(a)What is the most probable speed vp of a helium atom in the sample?,Solution:,(b)Estimate how many atoms in t

36、he sample have speeds in the range between vp and vp 40 m/s.,Solution:From the definition of the speed distribution,function,the number of molecules having a speed between v and v v is,3104,About 3%of the helium molecules will have speeds that lie in the range between 1120 m/s and 1160 m/s.,(c)Now l

37、et v=10 vp,and calculate the number of molecules between v and v 40 m/s.,Solution:,Set v=10vp=1.12104 m/s,we obtain,N=41039.,This means essentially that no molecules have speeds this high.,7-8 The Boltzmann Distribution,The velocity distribution function,Suppose the number of molecules with the velo

39、 function from the Maxwells speed distribution law,4v2dv.,F(v)4v2dv.,dvxdvydvz represents a tiny box at the tip of a vector,whose length is the speed v.We can sum(integrate)over all possible directions,keeping the speed fixed.,Because F(v)4v2dv is got by Summing(integrating)over all possible directi

40、ons,keeping the speed fixed,it represents a speed distribution,F(v)4v2dv=f(v)dv,Substituting for f(v)from Maxwells speed distribution law,we have,Boltzmann generalized the velocity distribution to a distribution that describes the probability that any one molecule has a given energy E.He proposed th

41、at in,the original velocity distribution,the total energy of the molecule,E,should replace the kinetic energy mv2/2,Boltzmann Distribution,Let us apply the Boltzmann distribution to find the number of molecules per unit volume as a function of altitude in the gravitational filed,The total energy of

42、a molecule,in the state range of dvxdvydvzdxdydz,is given by,From the Boltzmann distribution,the number of molecules lies in that state range is,By integrating over all possible velocities,we can get the number of molecules which lies in the differential volume element dxdydz,The number density of m

43、olecules,If we substitute n0(the number of density at z=0)for C,h(the altitude of the molecular position above the Earth surface)for z,This is known as the altitude distribution law of molecules or particles in the gravitational field.It gives the number density of particles as a function of altitud

44、e h.,Pressure as a function of altitude,Multiplied by kT for both sides,p0=n0kT is the pressure at h=0.,which means that the atmospheric pressure will be decreased by 133 Pa for every 10 m altitude increase.This is the principle for a kind of altimeter.,7-9 Van der Waals Equation of State,The ideal

45、gas law is an accurate description of the behavior of a real gas as long as the pressure is not too high and the temperature is far from the liquefaction point.But what happens when these two criteria are not satisfied?In other words,we need to find an equation of state to describe the behaviors of

46、real gases.,In 1873 Johannes D.van der Waals proposed an equation of state that works well for many real gases.His formula,known as the van der Waals equation,The constants a and b are both positive.,Interpretation of the van der Waals Gas,If we solve for p,Explain:,them over distances larger than t

47、heir radii.These forces are repulsive at short range,so that the molecules bounce off one another,but are slightly attractive at long distances.The attractive component of intermolecular force acts to make a gas more compact.This translates into a reduced pressure.The second term represents the effe

48、ct of the long-range attraction between molecules,Real molecules have forces that act between,As for the term proportional to b,molecules,like hard spheres,take up some space.This term is present because of the strong repulsion between molecules at a characteristic radius.By appearing as a term subtracted from V,the constant b measures the volume unavailable for the motion of molecules because the volume is already occupied by other molecules.,
