We have 0.5 g of hydrogen gas in a cubic chamber of size 3 cm kept at NTP. The gas in the chamber is compressed keeping the temperature constant till a final pressure of 100 atm. Is one justified in assuming the ideal gas law, in the final state?
(Hydrogen molecules can be consider as spheres of radius 1 Å).

उत्तर
Assuming hydrogen molecules as spheres of radius 1 Å.
So, r = 1 Å = radius
The volume of hydrogen molecules = `4/3 pir^3`
= `4/3 (3.14)(10^-10)^3`
= `4 xx 10^-30 m^3`
Number of moles of H2 = `"Mass"/"Molecular mass"`
= `0.5/2`
= 0.25
Molecules of H2 present = Number of moles of H2 present × 6.023 × 1023
= 0.25 × 6.023 × 1023
∴ Volume of molecules present = Molecules number × Volume of each molecule
= 0.25 × 6.023 × 1023 × 4 × 10–30
= 6.023 × 1023 × 10–30
= 6 × 10–7 m3 ......(i)
Now, if the ideal gas law is considered to be constant,
`p_iV_i = p_fV_f`
`V_f = (p_i/p_f)`
`V_i = (1/100)(3 xx 10^-2)^3`
= `(27 xx 10^-6)/10^2`
= 2.7 × 10–7 m3 ......(ii)
Hence, on compression, the volume of the gas is of the order of the molecular volume [form equation (i) and equation (ii)]. The intermolecular forces will play a role and the gas will deviate from ideal gas behaviour.

Diatomic molecules like hydrogen have energies due to both translational as well as rotational motion. From the equation in kinetic theory `pV = 2/3` E, E is ______.
- the total energy per unit volume.
- only the translational part of energy because rotational energy is very small compared to the translational energy.
- only the translational part of the energy because during collisions with the wall pressure relates to change in linear momentum.
- the translational part of the energy because rotational energies of molecules can be of either sign and its average over all the molecules is zero.
When an ideal gas is compressed adiabatically, its temperature rises: the molecules on the average have more kinetic energy than before. The kinetic energy increases ______.
- because of collisions with moving parts of the wall only.
- because of collisions with the entire wall.
- because the molecules gets accelerated in their motion inside the volume.
- because of redistribution of energy amongst the molecules.
