The maximum height at which nitrogen molecule will go before coming to rest is 14 kilometers.
Given:
The nitrogen gas molecule with a temperature of 330 Kelvins is released from Earth's surface to travel upward.
To find:
The maximum height of a nitrogen molecule when released from the Earth's surface before coming to rest.
Solution:
- The maximum height attained by nitrogen gas molecule = h
- The temperature of nitrogen gas particle = T = 330 K
The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is given by:

The nitrogen molecule at its maximum height will have zero kinetic energy as all the kinetic energy will get converted into potential energy
- The potential energy at height h =

- Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28.0134 g/mol
- Mass of nitrogen gas molecule = m

- The acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s^2
- The maximum height attained by nitrogen gas molecule = h
- The potential energy is given by:


The maximum height at which nitrogen molecule will go before coming to rest is 14 kilometers.

A compound is a substance that consists of 2 or more elements chemically combined in a fixed proportion.
Compounds can be broken down ijt0 simple substances by chemical means but, elements cannot.
Combined gas law is
PV/T = K (constant)
P = Pressure
V = Volume
T = Temperature in Kelvin
For two situations, the combined gas law can be applied as,
P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂
P₁ = 3.00 atm P₂ = standard pressure = 1 atm
V₁ = 720.0 mL T₂ = standard temperature = 273 K
T₁ = (273 + 20) K = 293 K
By substituting,
3.00 atm x 720.0 mL / 293 K = 1 atm x V₂ / 273 K
V₂ = 2012.6 mL
hence the volume of gas at stp is 2012.6 mL
Explanation:
The valence electrons within an atom is the number of electrons in its outermost shell.
These electrons are used by an atom to react with one another. They determine the extent to which an atom is ready to combine either by losing, gaining or sharing these electrons.
- Every atom desires to have a completely filled outermost shell.
- Only the elements in group 8 have a complete octet.
- The need to attain stability is driven by the number of electrons in their valence shell.
- Therefore, some atoms are very reactive.
- Those needing one electrons to complete their octet and also those that must lose one electron are very reactive.
