A vessel of volume V0 contains an ideal gas at pressure p0 and temperature T. Gas is continuously pumped out of this vessel at a constant volume-rate dV/dt = r keeping the temperature constant. The pressure of the gas being taken out equals the pressure inside the vessel. Find (a) the pressure of the gas as a function of time, (b) the time taken before half the original gas is pumped out.
Use R = 8.3 J K−1 mol−1

उत्तर
Let P be the pressure and n be the number of moles of gas inside the vessel at any given time t .
Suppose a small amount of gas of dn moles is pumped out and the decrease in pressure is dP .
Applying equation of state to the gas inside the vessel , we get
`(P - dP) V_0 = (n - dn) RT`
⇒ `PV_0 - dPV_0 = nRT - dnRT`
But `PV_0 = nRT`
⇒ `V_0dP = dnRT` ..............(1)
The pressure of the gas taken out is equal to the inner pressure .
Applying equation of state , we get
`(P - dP) dV = dnRT`
⇒ `PdV = dnRT` ..........(2)
From eq. (1) and eq. (2) , we get
`V_0dP = PdV`
⇒ `(dP)/P = (dV)/V_0`
`(dV)/dt = r`
⇒ `dV = rdt`
⇒ `dV = -rdt` ........(3) [Since pressures decreases , rate is negative]
Now ,
`(dP)/P = (-rdt)/V_0` [From eq. (3)]
(a)
Integrating the equation P = P0 to P = P and time t = 0 to t = t , we get
`∫_(P0)^P = ∫_0^t`
⇒ `In P - In P_0 = - (rt)/V_0`
⇒ `In (P/P_0) = - (rt) /V_0`
⇒ `P = P_0e^((-rt)/V_0)`
(b)
`P = P_0/2`
`P_0/2 = P_0e^((-rt)/V_0)`
⇒ `e^((rt)/V_0) = 2`
⇒`(rt)/V_0 = In 2`
⇒ `t = (V_0 In 2)/r`

From a certain apparatus, the diffusion rate of hydrogen has an average value of 28.7 cm3 s–1. The diffusion of another gas under the same conditions is measured to have an average rate of 7.2 cm3 s–1. Identify the gas
[Hint: Use Graham’s law of diffusion: R1/R2 = (M2/M1)1/2, where R1, R2 are diffusion rates of gases 1 and 2, and M1 and M2 their respective molecular masses. The law is a simple consequence of kinetic theory.]
