What is the pressure of `HCl` gas at `- 40^(@)C` if its density is `8.0 kg m^(-3) ? (R = 8.314 J K^(-1) mol^(-1))`

Answer» Equation for ideal gas,
`PV = (w)/(M) RT`
or `P = (w)/(V) xx (RT)/(M)`
`= d xx (RT)/(M) ((w)/(V) = " density " = d)`
Given, `d = 8.0 kg m^(-3), R = 8.314 K^(-1) mol^(-1)`
`T = - 40 + 273 = 233 K`
and `M = 36.5 g mol^(-1) = 36.5 xx 10^(-3) kg mol^(-1)`
Substituting the values in the above equation,
`P = (8.0 xx 8.314 xx 233)/(36.5 xx 10^(-3)) = 424.58 xx 01^(3) Pa`

Positive deviation from ideal behaviour takes place because ofA. finite size of atoms and `pV//nRT lt 1`B. molecular interaction between atoms and `pV//nRT gt 1`C. finite size of atoms and `pV//nRT gt 1`D. molecular interaction between atoms and `pV//nRT lt 1`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
According to the van der Waals equation , we have
`(p + (an^(2))/(V^(2))) (V - nb) = nRT`
When molecular interaction (i.e., attraction ) is insignificant , then the `an^(2)//V^(2)` may be neglaected relative to `p` to give
`p(V - nb) = RT`
or `pV - npb = nRT`
or `pV = nRT + npb`
Dividing both sides by `nRT` , we have
`(pV)/(nRT) = 1 + npb`
Thus , `pV//nRT gt 1`
This happens whenn the factor `b` which measures the size of particles is significiant.
831.

Which of the following is not true for liquids ?A. They have no definite shape (assume shapes of containers).B. They have definite volume (are only very slightly compressible).C. They have high density .D. They are not fluids.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
In the liquid state, molecules are held by one or more types of attractive forces. The forces of attraction among the particles are great enough that disordered clustering occurs. In a liquid , the molecules are held so close together that very little of the volume occupied by a liquid is empty space. As a result , it is very hard to compress a liquid than a gas. Also , liquids are much denser than gases under normal conditions.
A liquid also has a definite volume , since molecules in a liquid do not break away from the attractive forces (except evaporation). However , the molecules in the liquid state are able to slide past one another freely (thus, they are called fluids). As a result , a liquid can flow , can be poured , and assumes the shape of its container up to the volume of the liquid.

Correct gas equation is :A. `(V_(1)T_(2))/(p_(1))=(V_(2)T_(1))/(p_(2))`B. `(p_(1)T_(1))/(V_(1))=(p_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2))`C. `(p_(1)V_(1))/(p_(2)V_(2))=(T_(1))/(T_(2))`D. `(V_(1)V_(2))/(T_(1)T_(2))=p_(1)p_(2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
If temperature, volume and pressure of fixed amount (say n mole) of a gas vary from `T_(1),V_(1) and p_(1)" to " T_(2).V_(2)` and `p_(2)` respectively. Then, ideal gas equation for two states can be written as
`p_(1)V_(1)=nRT_(1)`
`"or "(p_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1))=nR" ...(i)"`
`p_(2)V_(2)=nRT_(2)`
`"or "(p_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2))=nR" ...(ii)"`
On combining Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
`(p_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1))=(p_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2))`
`"or "(p_(1)V_(1))/(p_(2)V_(2))=(T_(1))/(T_(2))`
So, it called combined gas equation.
Hence, (c) answer is correct.
833.

Which of the following is correct regarding the liquid state? (i) A liquid can exist only between the boiling and melting point of a substance . (ii) Liquids diffuse slowly through other liquids. (iii) liquids consist of disordered clusters of particles that are quite close together, particles have random motion in three dimensions. (iv) A liquid resembles a gas near the critical temperature and resembles a solid near the melting point of the substance.A. `(i),(ii),(iii)`B. `(i),(ii),(iii),(iv)`C. `(i),(iii),(iv)`D. `(ii),(iii)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
A substance exists in the liquid state above its melting point and below its boiling point. Liquids diffuse into other liquids with which they miscible. For example, when a drop of red food coloring is added to a glass of water , the water becomes red throughout after diffusion is complete. Thus , the miscibility of two liquids refers to their ability to mix and produce a homogeneous solution . The natural diffusion rate is slow at normal temperatures because intermolecular distances are small , hence , the molecules (in the liquid state) undergo a large number of collisions with the neighboring molecules.
Because the average separations among the particles in liquids are far less than those in gases , teh densities of liquids are much higher than the densities of gases. Because liquids are denser than gaes , the collision rate among molecules is much higher in the liquid phase than in the gas phase.
834.

The ability of a substance to exist in two or more crstaline forms knows as:A. isomerismB. polymorphismC. isomorphismD. amorphism

Answer» Correct Answer - B

The composition of a sample of wustite is `Fe_(0.93)O_(1.00)`. What percentage of the iron is present in the form of Fe(III) ?

Answer» The composition is `Fe_0.93 O_1.00` instead and FeO because some `Fe^(2+)` ions have been replaced by `Fe^(+)` ions. Let us first calculate the number of `Fe^(2+)` and `Fe^(3+)` ions present. The formula `Fe_0.93 O_1.00` implies that 93 Fe atoms are combined with 100 O-atoms. Out of 93 Fe atoms , suppoe Fe atoms present as `Fe^(3+)=x`. Then `Fe^(2+)=93-x`.As the compound is neutral, total charge on `Fe^(2+)` and `Fe^(3+)` ions =total charge on `O^(2-)` ions. Thus,
`3 xx x +2 (93-x)=2 xx 100` or 3x+ 186-2x =200 or x=14 , i.e., `Fe^(3+)=14`
Hence, `Fe^(2+)` =93-14=79
Thus, out of 93 Fe atoms , Fe present as `Fe^(3+)`=14 `therefore` % age of Fe present of Fe (III) =`14/93xx100=15%`
836.

Which of the following equations represents the compressibility factor?A. `Z = (nRT)/(pV)`B. `Z = (pV)/(nRT)`C. `Z = (pV)/(nR)`D. `Z = (pV)/(nT)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`{:(CH_(4)(g),+,2O_(2)(g),rarr,CO_(2)(g),+,2H_(2)O(l)),(x,,2x,,x,,):}`
`C_(2)H_(6)(g)+(7)/(2)O_(2)(g)rarr2CO_(2)(g)+3H_(2)O(l)`

Dipole-induced dipole interaction are present in which of the following pairsA. `Cl_(2)` and `C Cl_(4)`B. `HCl` and `He` atomsC. `SiF_(4)` and `He` atomsD. `H_(2)O` and alcohole

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Dipole-induced dipole interactions are present in the pair in which the first species is polar and the other is non-polar. Both `CL_(2)` and `C CL_(4)` are non-polar so there exists induced dipole-induced dipole interaction in between them.
The same is true for `SiF_(4)` and `He` atoms pair.
