Explanation The postulates of kinetic molecular theory of gas molecules are: i) All gases are composite of number of small particles those are called gaseous molecules. The mass and shape of the molecules of a particular gas is same. ii) The gaseous molecules are like spheres. The distance between the molecules are so long that there is no attraction or repulsion force acts between them. The total volume of the gas is large compared to the individual volume of the gas molecules, so the gas molecules are assumed as points. iii) The kinetic energy of the gas molecules are different but at a specific temperature the average kinetic energy of a gas molecules remain same. So at a specific temperature and specific mass the kinetic energy of a gas molecule remain constant. The kinetic energy of a gas molecule is proportional to the ideal temperature. iv) The molecules are in rapid motion which is completely random. During their motion, they collide with each other and with sides of the vessel. The pressure of the gas is due to the collisions of molecules with the side of the vessel...

Kinetic-Theory of Gases

Kinetic theory of gases is the model or method which was developed in the 19th century by Maxwell and Boltzmann. This is possible as the interatomic force which is of short-range forces that are important for solids and liquids can be neglected for gases…

Calculating standard reaction free energy from standard reduction... Using standard reduction potentials from the ALEKS Data tab, calculate the standard reaction free energy AG° for the following redox reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. 3Cu+ (aq) + Cro²¯ (aq) +4H₂O (1) → 3Cu²+ (aq) +Cr(OH)3 (s)+5OH˜¯ (aq) 0 kJ ☐ x10 00. 18 Ar

Calculating the pH of a weak base titrated with a strong acid An analytical chemist is titrating 241.7 mL of a 0.4900M solution of methylamine (CH3NH2) with a 0.7800M solution of HNO3. The pK of methylamine is 3.36. Calculate the pH of the base solution after the chemist has added 17.7 mL of the HNO3 solution to it. Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of HNO3 solution added. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. pH = ☑ ? 18 Ar
