- In the simple kinetic theory of a gas we discussed in class, the molecules are assumed to be point-like objects (without any volume) so that they rarely collide with one another. In reality, each molecule has a small volume and so there are collisions. Let's assume that a molecule is a hard sphere of radius r. Then the molecules will occasionally collide with each other. The average distance traveled between two successive collisions (called mean free path) is λ = V/(4π √2 r2N) where V is the volume of the gas containing N molecules. Calculate the mean free path of a H2 molecule in a hydrogen gas tank at STP.

- The pressure, volume, and temperature of a mole of an ideal gas are related by the equation PV = 8.31T, where P is measured in kilopascals, V in liters, and T in kelvins. Use differentials to find the approximate change in the pressure (in kPa) if the volume increases from 14 L to 14.3 L and the temperature decreases from 325 K to 320 K.
