Which of the following gases would you expect to deviate from ideal behaviour underconditions of low temperature F, Cl, or Br,? Explain. |
|
Answer» One of the assumptions of the ideal gas law is that the molecules do not have any attraction between them. Since these are all non-polar molecules, they will have dispersion forces, that get stronger the larger the molecule is (the more electrons it has). Since Br2 has the most electrons, it will have the strongest dispersion forces, and so deviate most from ideal behavior. |
