For the learner:
Welcome to the General Physics 1 Grade 12 Self-Learning Module (SLM) Ideal Gas
Law!
Gases of all sorts act in remarkably similar ways when subjected to changes in
pressure and temperature. We can describe the behavior of gases in terms of simple
laws of nature called the gas laws.
The study of gases is also fundamental to our understanding of the ways in which
the particles of the reactants come together to interact with each other.
The scope of this module permits it to be used in many different learning situations.
The language used recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons
are arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which
you read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.
What I Need to Know This will give you an idea of the skills or
competencies you are expected to learn in the
module.
iii
What I Have Learned This includes questions or blank
sentence/paragraph to be filled in to process
what you learned from the lesson.
1. Use the module with care. Do not put unnecessary mark/s on any part of the
module. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises.
2. Don’t forget to answer What I Know before moving on to the other activities
included in the module.
3. Read the instruction carefully before doing each task.
4. Observe honesty and integrity in doing the tasks and checking your answers.
5. Finish the task at hand before proceeding to the next.
6. Return this module to your teacher/facilitator once you are through with it.
If you encounter any difficulty in answering the tasks in this module, do not
hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator. Always bear in mind that you are
not alone.
We hope that through this material, you will experience meaningful learning and
gain deep understanding of the relevant competencies. You can do it!

What is It
Suppose you are going to take a ride in a hot air balloon, the captain turns on
a propane burner to heat the air inside the balloon. How does this allow the balloon
to rise? Can you think of a reason why a balloonist would prefer to fly in the morning?
Volume (V) The space occupied by the gas Liter (L); milliliter (mL)
The four properties of gas mentioned above can be combined to give a single
expression called the Ideal Gas Law, which is written as PV = nRT.
Where, n/V = ρ∞1/T, that means we can prove based on the ideal gas law that the
density and temperature of gases are inversely proportional hence,
hot air will rise in cool air because its density is less.
We can also use the ideal gas equation to determine gas density from pressure
and temperature.

Where: ρ=density
n=amount of substance
V=volume
P= Pressure
M= Molar mass
R= ideal gas constant
T= temperature
Sample Problem 1
Calculate the density of N2 with a molar mass of 28.0g/mol at 293K and 0.800 atm.
Given:
T = 293 K
P = 0.800 atm
MN2 = 28.0g/mol
Find: ρ

Solution: ρ= 𝑅𝑇
= 0.932 g/L
IDEAL GAS is defined as one of which both the volume of molecules and the
forces between the molecules are so small that they have no effect on the behaviour
of the gas or it can be a gas that conforms, in physical behaviour, to a particular,
idealized relation between pressure, volume and temperature.
According to the Kinetic Theory of Gases, an Ideal Gas has the following
characteristics:
1. Gases are made up of very tiny molecules. The distances between molecules are
very large. Therefore gases are mostly empty space. For an ideal gas, the molecule
occupies zero volume.
2. Gas molecules demonstrate rapid motion, move in a straight line, and travel in
random directions.
3. Gas molecules show no attraction for one another. After colliding with each other,
molecules simply bounces off in different directions.
4. Gas molecules have elastic collisions. That is, gas molecules do not lose kinetic
energy after colliding. If a high-energy molecule strikes a less energetic molecule,
part of the energy can be transferred. The total energy of both molecules before
and after collision does not change.
9
5. The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the Kelvin
temperature of gas. At the same temperature, all gases have the same average
molecular kinetic energy. At higher temperatures, molecules have faster and
collide more frequently. At lower temperatures, molecules move slower and collide
less frequently. Recall that the kinetic energy of a molecule is proportional to its
mass and square of velocity. As consequences, smaller molecules move faster and
larger molecules move slower at the same temperature.
At Standard Temperature Pressure (STP), the pressure of the gas is 1 atm, the
temperature is 273 K or 00C, and the volume of 1 mole of the gas is 22.4 L. Using
this value in the equation for the ideal gas would result in PV = nRT.

Substituting the values of P1V1 T1, n at STP
(1 atm)(22.4 L)
R =
(1 mol)(273 K)
R = 0.0821 L-atm/molK
Sample Problem 2
A 6.50 mole of CO2 occupies a volume of 13.5 L at 28.00C. Determine the
pressure of CO2 at this condition.

Substitute
The temperature, pressure and volume of an ideal gas are related to each other
by ideal gas equation. Since R is a constant, it does not change its numerical value
at any condition of P, V, T, n.
