Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.86PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
(a) The sample with the largest number of gas particles (atoms or molecules) needs to be identified
(b) The sample with the smallest number of particles needs to be identified.
(c) The sample which represents the largest mass needs to be identified.
Concept introduction:
- An ideal gas which is known as the perfect gas is a gas whose volume V, Pressure P and temperature T are related through the
ideal gas law : -
Here,
n = number of moles of the gas
R = ideal gas constant
T = Temperature
P = Pressure
- Ideal gases are described as the molecules which have negligible size but have an average molar kinetic energy which is dependent on the temperature. When temperature is low most of the gases behave like ideal gases and the ideal gas law might be applied to them.
