Explanation

(d) Root mean square velocity at T1 temperature,

              U13RT1M=3R(27+273)M            .....(i)

    Root mean square velocity at T2 temperature,

             U23RT2M=3R(927+273)M           ......(ii)

      Eq. (i) divided by Eq. (ii)

             U1/U227 +273927 + 2733001200=1/2

                  U2 = 2U1

At lower temperatures, all gases except H2 and He show:

Explanation

(b) Initial volume, V1 = 500 mL

Initial temperature,

              T1 = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300 K

Final temperature,

             T2 = -5 + 273 = 268 K

             V2 = ?

             V1/T1 = V2/T2

             V2 = V1T2/T1 = (500 x 268)/300 = 446.66 mL

In case of hydrogen and helium the van der Waals' forces are:

Explanation

(a) Increase of pressure decreases volume and molecules come closer to each other.

The compressibility factor of a gas is defined Z=PV/nRT. The compressibility factor of an ideal gas is:

Explanation

(c) For ideal gases PV = nRT, ... Z =1; because Z = PV/nRT

Explanation

(a) Average kinetic energy, E = (3/2)RT

 urms3RTM = 2EM

600 cc of a gas at a pressure of 750 mm is compressed to 500 cc. Taking the temperature to remain constant, the increase in pressure is                                           

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

(a) According to Boyle's law,

           p1V1 = p2V2

          750 x 600 =p2 x 500

                    p2 = (750 x 600)/500 = 900 mm

   So, the increase in pressure = 900-750 =150 mm
