प्रश्न

The temperature and humidity of air are 27°C and 50% on a particular day. Calculate the amount of vapour that should be added to 1 cubic metre of air to saturate it. The saturation vapour pressure at 27°C = 3600 Pa.

Use R = 8.3 J K-1 mol-1

उत्तर

Here , 

SVP = 3600 Pa

T = 273 + 27 = 300K

`"V" = 1 "m"^3`

M = 18 g for water

RH = 50%

⇒ `(VP)/(SVP) = 0.5`

⇒ `"VP" = 0.5 xx 3600 = 1800`

Let m1 be the mass of water present in the 50% humid air.  

PV = nRT

⇒`PV = m_1/MRT`

⇒ `1800 = "m"_1/18 xx 8.3 xx 300`

⇒ `"m"_1` = 13 g

Required pressure for saturation = 3600 Pa

Let `"m"_2` be the amount of water required for saturation . 

⇒ 3600 = `"m"_2/M`RT

⇒ `"m"_2` = `(3600 xx 18)/(8.3 xx 300)` = 26g

Total excess water vapour that has to be added = `"m"_2 - "m"_1`

⇒ 36 - 13 = 13 g

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.]
