Vapour Density and Gas Calculations

by Notetube Official94 words7 views

Vapour density (VD) = density of gas / density of H2 at same T, P = M/2. So M = 2 x VD. For gas mixtures: MavgM_{avg} = sum(xix_i x MiM_i) where xix_i = mole fraction. Or MavgM_{avg} = total mass / total moles. Ideal gas: PV = nRT (R = 0.0821 L.atmmol.K\frac{atm}{mol.K} or 8.314 Jmol.K\frac{J}{mol.K}). Density of gas: d = PMRT\frac{PM}{RT}. At STP: d = M/22.4 g/L. For reactions involving gases: use PV = nRT or volume ratios at same T, P. Dalton's law: PtotalP_{total} = sum(PiP_i), where PiP_i = xix_i x PtotalP_{total}.
