What is meant by compressibility factor of gases? How does its value deviate from that of an ideal gas in case of real gases and what does it indicate? |
|
Answer» It is the ratio of the product PV to nRT. Z = PV/nRT. For ideal gas its value is unity. Z < 1 indicates negative deviation i.e. gas is more compressible due predominance of attractive forces. Z > 1 indicates positive deviation i.e. gas is less compressible due predominance of repulsive forces. |

What is Active Mass? |
|
Answer» Active mass is represented by [ ] and expressed as Active Mass = activity coefficient × Concentration. For dilute liquid solution and gases behaving ideally activity coefficient is taken as unity. Thus active mass is equal to concentration for dilute liquid solutions and ideal gases. Active mass of liquids and solids is taken as unity. |
|

What is Chemical equilibrium? |
|
Answer» As reaction proceeds concentration of reactants decrease and concentration of products increase, thus rate of forward reaction decreases and rate of backward reaction increases with time and after some time rate of forward reaction equals to rate of backward reaction. Rateforward = Ratebackward That means that amount of products formed by forward reaction is equal to amount of products consumed in backward reaction, similarly amount of reactants consumed in forward reaction is equal to amount of it formed by backward reaction, thus net concentration of reaction species remain constant and rate of two reactions also get constant. Thus is termed as state of chemical equilibrium. |
