Answer:
B = - 0.0326 dm³/mol
Explanation:
virial eq until second term:
∴ P = 10 bar * (atm/ 1.01325 bar) = 9.869 atm
∴ T = 200°C = 473 K
∴ Vm = 3.90 dm³/mol
∴ R = 0.08206 dm³.atm/K.mol
⇒ PVm / RT = 1 + B/Vm
⇒ ((9.869 atm)*(3.90 dm³/mol)) / ((0.08206 dm³.atm/mol.K)*(473K)) = 1 + B/Vm
⇒ 0.99164 = 1 + B/Vm
⇒ B/Vm = - 8.357 E-3
⇒ B = (3.90 dm³/mol)*( - 8.357 E-3 )
⇒ B = - 0.0326 dm³/mol
Answer:
The significance of "Er" in the diagram is :
B.) Threshold energy for reaction
Explanation:
Threshold energy : It is total amount of energy required by the reactant molecule to reach the transition state .
Activation energy : It is the excess energy absorbed by the molecules to reach the transition state.
<u>Activation Energy = Threshold Energy - Average Kinetic Energy</u>
<u>This means Activation energy decreases on increasing kinetic energy</u>
On increasing Temperature average kinetic energy of the molecule increases which reduces the activation energy and the reaction occur faster in that case.
Catalyst also reduces the Activation energy.
<u>Er = Threshshold energy for reaction at 30 degree</u>
<u>Ea = Activation Energy</u>
<u>The given figure shows that the threshold energy decreases on increasing the temperature</u>
<u>Only the molecule having energy greater than Er can react to form product</u>
