At what temperature is the average speed of air particles the highest?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Air is a mixture of roughly 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen. The diatomic molecules of each type have a Maxwell-Boltzman distribution of velocities.

From the kinetic theory of gases the molecules kinetic energy will depend on the temperature.

Let’s use 300 K as room temperature : The nitrogen molecules have a root mean square velocity ( VRMS ) of 353 m/s. The average for all of the molecules is 347 m/s.

In general in gases of diatomic molecules the speed of sound is 68% of the molecular  VRMS .

The normal boiling point of a substance is defined to be the temperature at which the liquid phase of the substance is in equili
boyakko [2]

Answer:

ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K

Explanation:

Binary solution:

∴ a: solvent

∴ b: solute

in equilibrium:

  • μ*(g) = μ(l) = μ* +RTLnXa....chemical potential (μ)

⇒ Ln (1 - Xb) = ΔG/RT

∴ ΔG = ΔHv - TΔSv

⇒ Ln(1 -Xb) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R

∴ Xb → 0:

⇒ Ln(1) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R

∴ T = T*b....normal boiling point

⇒ 0 = ΔHv/RT*b - ΔSv/R

⇒ ΔSv = (R)(ΔHv/RT*b)

⇒ ΔSv = ΔHv/T*b

∴ T*b = 80°C ≅ 353 K

⇒ ΔSv = (38 KJ/mol)/(353 K)

⇒ ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K

Most chemical changes are _________ and cannot be reversed .
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

irreversible changes

Explanation:

Most chemical changes are permanent and cannot be reversed. That is because a chemical change involves changing the molecular composition which can't be reversed. A common example of a chemical change would be burning wood. The wood burning into ash is changing the molecular composition of the wood transforming it to ash. Now can ash be changed back into wood? No, it is a "irreversible change."

Hope this helps.
