Important Questions on Postulates of Kinetic Theory of Gases

EASY
IMPORTANT

If volume occupied by CO2​ molecules is negligible, then what will be the pressure P5.277 exerted by one mole of at 27°C is a=3.592 L2 mol-2.

EASY
IMPORTANT

State the assumption regarding the volume of gas molecules to consider the gas as an ideal gas.

EASY
IMPORTANT

For gas to be ideal gas, it is assumed that the _____ of the molecules is negligibly small compared to the volume occupied by the gas.

EASY
IMPORTANT

The average kinetic energy of gas molecules does not depend upon temperature.

EASY
IMPORTANT

A gas diffuse 15 times as fast as hydrogen. Its molecular weight is

EASY
IMPORTANT

The average kinetic energy of gas molecules does not depend upon temperature.

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

Assertion: According to kinetic theory of gases, all the collision between molecule-molecule, and between molecule-walls of container are perfectly elastic, so speed of each molecule in an isolated gaseous system remains constant.

Reason: Distribution of speed among the molecules of gas does not change with time for the above system.

EASY
IMPORTANT

Assertion: The potential energy of ideal gas is zero.

Reason: At low pressure or high temperature the molecules are far apart and molecular interactions are negligible.

EASY
IMPORTANT

A liquid is in equilibrium with its vapours at its boiling point. On the average, the molecules in the two phases have equal:

EASY
IMPORTANT

Different gases at the same temperature have same

EASY
IMPORTANT

What is the average velocities of particles in a gas

EASY
IMPORTANT

A container of volume 1 m3 is divided into two equal compartments by a partition. One of these compartments contains and ideal gas at 300 K. The other compartment is vacuum. The whole system is thermally isolated from its surroundings. The partition is removed and the gas expands to occupy the whole volume of the container. Its temperature now would be
