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
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago
3 0

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.

If a chemist has a stock solution of HBr that is 10.0 M and would like to make 450.0 mL of 3.0 M HBr, how would he do it?
asambeis [7]

This is a dilution that requires a certain volume from the stock solution to be diluted with distilled water to make a solution of HBr with a lesser concentration than the stock solution

Following dilution formula can be used

c1v1 = c2v2

Where c1 is concentration and v1 is the volume of the stock solution

c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of the diluted solution to be prepared

Substituting these values

10.0 M x v1 = 3.0 x 450.0 mL

v1 = 135.0 mL

A volume of 135.0 mL from HBr stock solution needs to be taken and diluted with distilled water upto 450.0 mL. The resulting solution will have a concentration of 3.0 M

These models show the electron structures of two different nonmetal elements.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.

If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.

But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.

As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.

Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

A layer of sediment goes through a series of steps on its way to becoming sedimentary rock. These steps are summarized below. Re
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Explanation:

The steps involved in formation of a sedimentary rock are placed in the correct order as follows.

Step 1: The sediment is deposited by wind, flowing water, or other natural processes.

Step 2: The sediment is gradually buried and compacted.

Step 3: Dissolved minerals completely cement the sediment together.

As a result, it leads to the formation of a sedimentary rock.
