Question 1

Is it possible to change the temperature and pressure of a fixed mass of a gas without changing its volume? Explain your answer.

Solution 1

Question 2

Explain briefly:
(a) The Kelvin scale has been adopted for chemical calculation.
(b) The absolute zero is a theoretical concept.
(c) When stating the volume of a gas, the pressure and temperature should also be given.

Solution 2

(a) Volume of a gas would be reduced to zero at 0 K (-273⁰C).All temperatures on the Kelvin scale are positive, so Kelvin scale has been adopted for chemical calculation.
(b) At absolute zero temperature, volume of a gas would be reduced to zero. Theoretically,this is the lowest temperature that can be reached. At this temperature all molecular motions cease. Thus, practically this temperature is impossible to attain because on cooling gases liquefy and Charles' law is no more applicable.
(c) According to combined gas law equation, there is simultaneous effect of temperature and pressure changes on the volume of a given mass of a gas. So, when stating the volume of a gas, the pressure and temperature should also be given.

Question 3

4 litres of CO₂ is kept at 27⁰C.Calculate its volume if the volume is lowered to 150K at the same pressure.

Solution 3

Question 4

Solution 4

Question 5

Solution 5

Question 6

Which of the following statements are true and which are false?
(a) At constant pressure if a sample of a gas is heated from 0^Oc to 273⁰C,the volume will be double.
(b) At constant pressure if a sample of a gas is heated from 475⁰C TO 1273⁰C,the volume will be double.
(c) Boyle studied the variation of the volume of a gas with pressure and found that as the pressure increases, so does the volume.
(d) A gas exerts pressure at the bottom but not on the walls of container.
(e) The P-V graph of a fixed mass of a gas at constant temperature is a straight line.

(a) True
(b) False

Question 8

A sample of methane occupies 320 ml at 47^oC.To what temperature (in degree celsius) will it have to be heated to occupy 450 ml at the same pressure?

Solution 8

Question 9

Give an experiment to show the pressure volume relationship of gas.

Solution 9

We trap a definite quantity of air in the closed vessel. At any point, the pressure on the air is equal to the atmospheric pressure plus the pressure due to the excess mercury column in the open end tube. By pouring mercury in the tube, we increase the pressure on the air and measure its volume under that pressure. We thus obtain a set of data for the volume of a fixed mass of air under different pressures.
For a given mass of air at constant temperature, the following observations are made-
(i) The volume of air decreases with increasing pressure and vice versa.
(ii) The proportion by which the volume decreases or increases is the same by which the pressure increases or decreases.

Question 10

The molecular theory accounts for the pressure exerted by a gas in a closed vessel as a result of the gas molecules striking against the wall of the vessel. How will the pressure change if :
(a) The temperature is doubled keeping the volume constant,
(b) The volume is halved, keeping the temperature constant?

Solution 10

(a) Pressure will also be doubled.
(b) Pressure will be double.

(a) The melting point of the ice is ______ Kelvin.
(b) The temperature on the Kelvin scale at which molecular motion completely ceases is called ______.
(c) The average kinetic energy of the molecule of a gas is proportional to the ______.
(d) If temperature is reduced to one half, ______ would also reduced to one half.

Solution 11

(a) 273
(b) absolute zero
(c) absolute temperature
(d) the average kinetic energy

Question 12

2 litres of a gas is enclosed in a vessel when the pressure is 760 mm Hg. If the temperature remains constant, calculate the pressure when:

(b) What will be the pressure when the chamber is brought to 100 oC?

Solution 14

Question 15

A fixed mass of a gas has a volume of 750 cm³ at -23^oC and 800 mm pressure. Calculate the pressure for which the volume will be 720 cm³, the temperature being -3⁰C.

Solution 15

Question 16

Why does the size of a weather balloon become larger and larger as it ascends into higher space?

Solution 16

As weather balloon go higher into the atmosphere, the air becomes less dense, so air pressure drops. Because of this, the air that is already inside the balloon expands to cope with the difference in pressure. The end result is that the balloon expands making it larger.

Question 17

The pressure of a gas maintained in a steel tank is 20 atmospheres. If the pressure has to be increased by 20%, to what temperature must the tank be heated, if the initial temperature is 27^oC?
