$$Z \approx 1$$ at very low pressure.
B
$$Z > 1$$ at high pressure

The interaction energy of London force is inversely proportional to sixth power of the distance between two interacting particles but their magnitude depends upon
A
charge of interacting particles
B
mass of interacting particles
C
polarisability of interacting particles
D
strength of permanent dipoles in the particles.
Answer :
polarisability of interacting particles
Greater the polarisability of the interacting particles, greater is the magnitude of interaction energy.

A container of $$1\,L$$ capacity contains a mixture of $$4\,g$$ of $${O_2}$$ and $$2\,g$$ of $${H_2}$$ at $$0{\,^ \circ }C.$$ What will be the total pressure of the mixture ?
34.
In calcium fluoride, having the fluorite structure, the coordination numbers for calcium $$ion\left( {C{a^{2 + }}} \right)$$ and fluoride $$ion\left( {{F^ - }} \right)$$ are
A
4 and 2
B
6 and 6
C
8 and 4
D
4 and 8
Answer :
8 and 4
In $$Ca{F_2}$$ (Fluorite structure), $$C{a^{2 + }}\,ions$$ are arranged in $$ccp$$ arrangement ( $$C{a^{2 + }}\,ions$$ are present at all corners and at the centre of each face of the cube) while $${F^ - }\,ions$$ occupy all the tetrahedral sites.
From the above figure, you can clearly see that coordination number of $${{F^ - }}$$ is 4 while that of $$C{a^{2 + }}$$ is 8.

Under what conditions will a pure sample of an ideal gas not only exhibit a pressure of
$$1\,atm$$ but also a concentration of $$1\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}?$$
$$\left( {R = 0.082\,L\,atm\,mo{l^{ - 1}}{{\deg }^{ - 1}}} \right)$$
A
At $$STP$$
B
When $$V = 22.4\,L$$
C
When $$T = 12\,K$$
D
Impossible under any conditions
Answer :
When $$T = 12\,K$$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{According to ideal gas equation,}} \cr
& pV = nRT \cr
& \,\,\,\,p = \frac{n}{V}RT \cr
& 1atm = 1mol\,{L^{ - 1}} \times 0.082 \times T \cr
& T = \frac{1}{{0.082}} \cr
& \,\,\,\,\, = 12K \cr} $$

When $$C{O_2}\left( g \right)$$ is passed over red hot coke it partially gets reduced to $$CO\left( g \right).$$ Upon passing $$0.5\,L$$ of $$C{O_2}\left( g \right)$$ over red hot coke, the total volume of the gases increased to $$700\,mL.$$
The composition of the gaseous mixture at $$STP$$ is
37.
Cyclopropane and oxygen at partial pressures $$170\,torr$$ and $$570\,torr$$ are mixed in a gas cylinder. What is the ratio of the number of moles of cyclopropane to the number of moles of oxygen?
A
$$\frac{{170 \times 42}}{{570 \times 32}} = 0.39$$
B
$$\frac{{170}}{{42}}/\left( {\frac{{170}}{{42}} + \frac{{570}}{{32}}} \right) \approx 0.19$$
38.
A mixture of $$Ne$$ and $$Ar$$ kept in a closed vessel at $$250\,K$$ has a total $$K.E. = 3kJ.$$ The total mass of $$Ne$$ and $$Ar$$ is $$30\,g.$$ Find mass $$\% $$ of $$Ne$$ in gaseous mixture at $$250\,K.$$
39.
Which one of the following statements is wrong for gases?
A
Gases co not have a definite shape and volume
B
Volume of the gas is equal to volume of container confining the gas
C
Confined gas exerts uniform pressure on the walls of its container in all directions
D
Mass of gas cannot be determined by weighing a container in which it is enclosed
Answer :
Mass of gas cannot be determined by weighing a container in which it is enclosed
Mass of gas can be determined by weighing a container in which it is enclosed as follows:
Mass of the gas = mass of the cylinder including gas $$ - $$ mass of empty cylinder
So, it is a wrong statement.

A gas is said to behave like an ideal gas when the relation $$\frac{{pV}}{T} = $$ constant. When do you expect a real gas to behave like an ideal gas?
A
When the temperature is low
B
When both the temperature and pressure are low
C
When both the temperature and pressure are high
D
When the temperature is high and pressure is low
Answer :
When the temperature is high and pressure is low
As we know that the van der Waals’ equation is
$$\left( {p + \frac{a}{{{V^2}}}} \right)\left( {V - b} \right) = RT$$
The real gases show ideal behaviour when pressure approaches zero and temperature is high. At this condition there is no force of attraction and repulsion between the molecules of gas.
Thus, the effect of $${\frac{a}{{{V^2}}}}$$ and $$b$$ is negligible, i.e.
$$\eqalign{
& pV = RT \cr
& \frac{{pV}}{{RT}} = 1 \cr} $$
We also know $$\frac{{pV}}{{RT}} = Z$$ ( for ideal gas $$Z = 1$$ )
( $$Z$$ is compressibility factor )
Therefore an real gas behaves like ideal gas when the temperature is high and pressure is low.
