Why the measured pressure of a gas under conditions that are very close to those that would result in condensation will be lower

than what the ideal gas law would predict?
Chemistry

Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

Inter-molecular forces and molecular volumes are the chief reasons for lower measured pressure

Explanation:

The kinetic theory assumes that gas particles occupy a negligible fraction of the total volume of the gas. It also assumes that the force of attraction between gas molecules is zero.

However, during high pressure, the volume of the gas particles are not negligible compare to the total gas volume and as such the volume of a real gas under such condition is higher than the Ideal gas. Vander-waal attempted to modify the ideal gas equation by subtracting the excess volume from the ideal equation. The increased volume is the reason the measured pressure of a real gas is  less than an ideal gas

On the other hand,  close to condensation, the other  assumption of negligible forces of attraction becomes invalid. As inter-molecular distances decrease, inter-molecular forces increase reducing the bombardment of the wall of the container due to restricted particle movement and lower measured gas pressure.

The formula for chlorine acid is
fenix001 [56]

The correct terminology for chlorine acid is Hydrochloric Acid. The formula for that is HCl. This is because H has an ionic charge of +1 and Cl has an ionic charge of -1. Thus, they will combine to form HCl. Also, H is in front because almost all acids will have H in front.

Calculate the ph of sweater which has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 times 10 to the power of 8
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The pH of the sweater containing Hydrogen ion concentration

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8} is

<u>8</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

pH = It is the negative logarithm of activity (concentration) of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log([H+])

Now, In the question the concentration of [H+] ions is :

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}

pH = -log(1\times 10^{-8})

use the relation:

log(10^{-a})=a

pH= -(-8)

pH = 8

Note : <em><u> 1 times 10 to the power of 8 must be" 1 times 10 to the power of -8"</u></em>

If the concentration is

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{8}

Then pH = -8 , which is not possible . So in that  case the pH calculation is by other method
