Why do real gases deviate from the ideal gas laws at low temperatures?

Chemistry

Debora [2.8K]3 years ago

As the molecules of gas interact, they are attracted to each other, following ideal laws, but they also collide with one another, and this makes them deviate from them. High pressures and low temperatures can also cause them to deviate, this is because the more pressure there is or the lower temperature there is, the closer together the molecules are, and the more they collide.

The answer is: The volume of a real gas is larger than expected from the ideal gas equation at low temperatures.

An ideal gas is:  

1) made up of molecules which are in constant random motion in straight lines.  

2) all collisions are perfectly elastic, there is no loss of kinetic energy during the collision.  

3) follows ideal gas law: p·V = n·R·T.  

4) the gas particles have negligible volume.  

At low temperatures, volume of the gas is not negligible.

ella [17]
A controlled variable is the one that is kept constant, the manipulated variable is the independent variable in an experiment , it is called manipulated because is the one that can be changed. A responding variable or variables are the dependent variables that change as a result of the changes in the manipulated variable.

A covalent chemical bond is one in which _____. a covalent chemical bond is one in which _____. outer-shell electrons of two ato
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

            A covalent chemical bond is one in which <u>outer-shell electrons of two atoms are shared so as to satisfactorily fill their respective orbitals</u>.

Explanation:

                   Covalent bonds are formed between two atoms having their electronegativity difference less than 1.7. In this type of bonding the valence electrons of one atoms forms molecular bond with the valence electrons of another atom. The electrons are mutually shared.

                   Covalent bond can be non-polar as for example formed between hydrogen and carbon atoms.

                   Also, covalent bond can be polar in nature as that formed between hydrogen and chlorine atoms because the chlorine atom is more electronegative and hence attracts the electrons more towards itself making density of electrons less on hydrogen atom.

q = (50.0 g) (55.3 °C) (2.46 J/g·°C) =  

b) boil it at 78.3

(39.3 kJ/mol) (50.0 g / 46.0684 g/mol) =  

c) sum up the answers from the two calculations above. Be sure to change the J from the first calc into kJ

Which statement describes heterogeneous mixtures?
Artemon [7]
<span>The righ answer is the option A. They are made up of two or more pure substances that are not chemically bonded. A classicall expample ot heterogeneous mixtures are sugar and salt. Sugar is a pure substance, salt is also a pure substance, when you mixe them you form mixture where salt is still salt and sugar is still sugar, that is what "they are not chemically bonded" means. So you can separate them by physical media. </span>
