For real gases, the relation between $$P, V$$ and $$T$$ is given by van der Waals' equation, $$\left( {P + \frac{{a{n^2}}}{{{V^2}}}} \right)\left( {V - nb} \right) = nRT.$$ For the following gases $$C{H_4},C{O_2},{O_2},{H_2}$$ which gas will have (i) highest value of $$a$$ (ii) lowest value of $$b?$$
A
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)C{O_2},\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right){H_2}$$
B
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)C{H_4},\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)C{O_2}$$
C
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right){H_2},\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)C{O_2}$$
D
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right){O_2},\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right){H_2}$$
(i) Order of intermolecular attraction is $$C{O_2} > C{H_4} > {O_2} > {H_2}$$
In $$C{O_2},$$ intermolecular forces increases with number of electrons in a molecule.
(ii) Size increases in order of $${H_2} < {O_2} < C{H_4} < C{O_2}$$
Hence, $${H_2}$$ will have lowest value of $$b.$$

Boiling point of hydrogen fluoride is highest amongst $$HF, HCl, HBr$$ and $$HI.$$ Which type of intermolecular forces are present in hydrogen fluoride ?
A
$$H-F$$ has highest van der Waals forces and dipole moment.
B
$$H - F$$ has highest London forces.
C
$$H - F$$ has highest dipole moment hence has dipole-dipole, London forces and hydrogen bonding.
D
$$H -F$$ has strong intermolecular interactions like dipole-induced dipole.
Answer :
$$H - F$$ has highest dipole moment hence has dipole-dipole, London forces and hydrogen bonding.
$$H-F$$ has dipole-dipole interaction, London forces and hydrogen bonding due to highest electronegativity of $$F.$$ Hence, boiling point of $$H - F$$ is highest.

If $${10^{ - 4}}d{m^3}$$ of water is introduced into a $$1.0\,d{m^3}$$ flask at
$$300 K,$$ how many moles of water are in the vapour phase when equilibrium is established ? ( Given : Vapour pressure of $${H_2}O$$ at $$300 K$$ is $$3170 pa;$$ $$R = 8.314J\,{K^{ - 1}}mo{l^{ - 1}})$$
A
$$5.56 \times {10^{ - 3}}mol$$
B
$$1.53 \times {10^{ - 2}}mol$$
C
$$4.46 \times {10^{ - 2}}mol$$
D
$$1.27 \times {10^{ - 3}}mol$$
Answer :
$$1.27 \times {10^{ - 3}}mol$$
From the ideal gas equation :
$$PV = nRT\,\,or\,\,n = \frac{{PV}}{{RT}} = \frac{{3170 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{8.314 \times 300}} = 1.27 \times {10^{ - 3}}$$

One mole of $${N_2}{O_2}\left( g \right)$$ at $$300K$$ is kept in a closed container under one atmosphere. It is heated to $$600K$$ when $$20\% $$ by mass of $${N_2}{O_4}\left( g \right)$$ decomposes to $$N{O_2}\left( g \right).$$ The resultant pressure is :
A
1.2 atm
B
2.4 atm
C
2.0 atm
D
1.0 atm
Answer :
2.4 atm
According to ideal gas equation, at two condition
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{At}}\,300K;\,\,{P_0}V = {n_0}R{T_0} \cr
& 1 \times V = 1.08 \times R \times 300\,\,\,\,\,...\left( {\text{i}} \right) \cr
& {\text{At}}\,600K;\,\,{P_1}{V_1} = {n_1}R{T_1} \cr
& {P_1} \times V = \left( {0.86 + 0.43} \right) \times R \times 600\,\,\,\,\,...\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right) \cr
& {\text{Divide (ii) by (i),}} \cr
& \frac{{{P_1}}}{1} = \frac{{1.29 \times 600}}{{1.08 \times 300}}; \cr
& {P_1} = \frac{{1.29 \times 2}}{{1.08}} = 2.38\,\,atm. \simeq 2.4\,\,atm. \cr} $$

As the temperature increases, average kinetic energy of molecules increases. What would be the effect of increase of temperature on pressure provided the volume is constant ?
A
Increases
B
Decreases
C
Remains same
D
Becomes half
Answer :
Increases
Gay Lussac's law states that at constant volume, pressure of a fixed amount of a gas varies directly with the temperature.
$$\therefore \,\,P \propto T$$ ( at constant volume )
Thus, if temperature is increased at constant volume pressure increases.
216.
By how many folds the temperature of a gas would increase when the root mean square
velocity of the gas molecules in a container of fixed volume is increased from $$5 \times {10^4}\,cm/s$$ to $$10 \times {10^4}\,cm/s?$$

The value of van der waals constant $$'a’$$ for gases $${O_2},{N_2},N{H_3}$$ and $$C{H_4}$$ are 1.360, 1.390, 4.170 and 2.253 $$litr{e^2}atm\,\,mo{l^{ - 2}}$$ respectively. The gas which can most easily be liquefied is :
A
$${O_2}$$
B
$${N_2}$$
C
$$N{H_3}$$
D
$$C{H_4}$$
Answer :
$$N{H_3}$$
The higher the value of $$'a’,$$ more the value of $${T_c},$$ easy is the liquefaction

The graphs representing distribution of molecular speeds at $$300\,K$$ for gases $$C{l_2}$$ and $${N_2}:$$
Select the correct option.
A
I graph is for $${N_2}$$ and II is for $$C{l_2}$$
B
II graph is for $${N_2}$$ and I is for $$C{l_2}$$
C
Either graph can be taken for $${N_2}$$ or $$C{l_2}$$
D
Information is not sufficient.
Answer :
II graph is for $${N_2}$$ and I is for $$C{l_2}$$
Molecular weight of $$C{l_2}$$ is more than molecular weight of $${N_2}.$$

Two closed bulbs of equal volume $$(V)$$ containing an ideal gas initially at pressure $${P_i}$$ and temperature $${T_1}$$ are connected through a narrow tube of negligible volume as shown in the figure below. The temperature of one of the bulbs is then raised to $${T_2}.$$ The final pressure $${P_f}$$ is :
A
$$2{p_i}\left( {\frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1} + {T_2}}}} \right)$$
B
$$2{p_i}\left( {\frac{{{T_1}{T_2}}}{{{T_1} + {T_2}}}} \right)$$
C
$${p_i}\left( {\frac{{{T_1}{T_2}}}{{{T_1} + {T_2}}}} \right)$$
D
$$2{p_i}\left( {\frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_1} + {T_2}}}} \right)$$
For a given mass of an ideal gas, the volume and amount (moles) of the gas are directly proportional if the temperature and pressure are constant. i.e
$$V \propto n$$
Hence in the given case.
Initial moles and final moles are equal $${\left( {{n_T}} \right)_i} = {\left( {{n_T}} \right)_f}$$
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{{{P_i}V}}{{R{T_1}}} + \frac{{{P_i}V}}{{R{T_1}}} = \frac{{{P_f}V}}{{R{T_1}}} + \frac{{{P_f}V}}{{R{T_2}}} \cr
& 2\frac{{{P_i}}}{{{T_1}}} = \frac{{{P_f}}}{{{T_1}}} + \frac{{{P_f}}}{{{T_2}}} \Rightarrow {P_f} = \frac{{2{P_i}{T_2}}}{{{T_1} + {T_2}}} \cr} $$

Which gas is expected to have the highest critical temperature?
A
$$Kr$$
B
$$Ne$$
C
$$Xe$$
D
$$Ar$$
Answer :
$$Kr$$
Critical temperature $$ = \frac{{8a}}{{27Rb}}$$
Value of $$\frac{a}{b}$$ is highest for $$Kr.$$ Therefore, $$Kr$$ has greatest value of critical temperature.
