The theory assumes that collisions between gas molecules and the walls of a container are perfectly elastic, gas particles do not have any volume, and there are no repulsive or attractive forces between molecules .

At high pressure and low temperature, real gas deviates from ideal gas. Compressibility factor is used to measure the deviation of real gas from ideal gas.

The compressibility factor is "n" which equals PV/RT.This is equal to one in case of ideal gas and this condition does not hold good for real gas.


At high pressures, the molecules in the gas tend to become closer, resulting in greater intermolecular forces. Internal molecular force holds these molecules together,prevents movement and collision and thus reduces the pressure of the gas much below than that of an ideal gas.


At low temperatures, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules also becomes less thus this results in less collision of the gas molecules and thus finally this results in the decrease in pressure of the gas molecules which would be much lower than that of an ideal gas.


For an ideal gas, the translational kinetic energy is 3/2kT. This condition does not hold good for a real gas.

How to convert 250 in scientific notation
cricket20 [7]
In scientific notation, a number is less than ten but more than one.

Move the decimal point from 0, 250.000 <- this is the same as 250 to between 2 and 5.

I had to move two spaces.

2.5^2

I hope this helps!

Silver occurs in trace amounts in some ores of lead, and lead can displace silver from solution: Pb(s) + 2Ag+ (aq) LaTeX: \longr
VikaD [51]

Answer : The value of \Delta G^o and K is, -180 kJ/mol and 3.6\times 10^{31}

Explanation :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

Pb(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(g)

The half-cell reactions are:

Oxidation reaction (anode) : Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction reaction (cathode) : 2Ag^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag(g)

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

E^o_{cell} = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.93 V

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 0.93

\Delta G^o=-179490J/mol=-179.49kJ/mol\approx -180kJ/mol

Now we have to calculate the value of 'K'.

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K

where,

\Delta G_^o =  standard Gibbs free energy  = -180 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K

T = temperature = 298 K

K = equilibrium constant = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

-180kJ/mol=-(8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K)\times (298K)\times \ln K

K=3.6\times 10^{31}

Therefore, the value of \Delta G^o and K is, -180 kJ/mol and 3.6\times 10^{31}

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{4.97 \times 10^{-2}}"

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Equation:

2SO_2+O_2  \leftrightharpoons 2SO_3

at t=0 3.3   \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 0.79

at equilibrium 3.3-p \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 0.79 - \frac{P}{2} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ P

p= 0.47 \ \ atm\\\\SO_2=3.3-0.47 = 2.83 \ \ atm\\\\O_2= 0.74 -\frac{0.47}{2}=0.74-0.235=0.555 \ atm\\\\K_P=\frac{[PSO_3]^2}{[PSO_2]^2[PO_2]}\\\\

     =\frac{0.47^2}{2.83^2\times 0.555}\\\\=4.97 \times 10^{-2}
