Question. Using the equation of state pV = nRT; show that at a given temperature density of a gas is proportional to gas pressurep.
Answer : The equation of state is given by,
pV = nRT ……….. (i)
Where,
p → Pressure of gas
V → Volume of gas
n→ Number of moles of gas
R → Gas constant
T → Temperature of gas
From equation (i) we have,
n/v = P/RT
Replacing n with m/M, we have
m/MV = P/PT.........(ii)
Where,
m → Mass of gas
M → Molar mass of gas
But, m/v= d (d = density of gas)
Thus, from equation (ii), we have
d/M = P/RT
⇒ d = (M/RT)p
Molar mass (M) of a gas is always constant and therefore, at constant temperature (T), M/RT constant.
d = (constant)p
⇒ d ∝ p
Hence, at a given temperature, the density (d) of gas is proportional to its pressure (p).

Question. At 0°C, the density of a certain oxide of a gas at 2 bar is same as that of dinitrogen at 5 bar. What is the molecular mass of the oxide?

Answer : For ideal gas A, the ideal gas equation is given by,
PAV = nART.........(i)
Where, pA and nA represent the pressure and number of moles of gas A.
For ideal gas B, the ideal gas equation is given by,
PBV = nART.........(ii)
Where, pB and nB represent the pressure and number of moles of gas B.
[V and T are constants for gases A and B]
From equation (i), we have

Thus, a relationship between the molecular masses of A and B is given by.
4MA = MB

Question. The drain cleaner, Drainex contains small bits of aluminum which react with caustic soda to produce dihydrogen. What volume of dihydrogen at 20 °C and one bar will be released when 0.15g of aluminum reacts?
Answer : The reaction of aluminium with caustic soda can be represented as:
At STP (273.15 K and 1 atm), 54 g (2 × 27 g) of Al gives 3 × 22400 mL of H2..
0.15 g Al gives i.e., 186.67 mL of H2.
At STP,
Let the volume of dihydrogen be at p2 = 0.987 atm (since 1 bar = 0.987 atm) and T2 = 20°C = (273.15 + 20) K = 293.15 K..
Therefore, 203 mL of dihydrogen will be released.

Now,

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-11-Chemistry-Chapter-5-States-of-Matter-5

Now, let the partial pressure of O2 in the vessel be.
 p1V= p2 V2'
⇒ p2  = p1 V/ V2
⇒ pO= 0.7 × 2 .0 /1 = 1.4 bar
Total pressure of the gas mixture in the vessel can be obtained as:
Ptotal = PH2 + Po2
= 0.4 + 1.4
= 1.8 bar
Hence, the total pressure of the gaseous mixture in the vessel is.

Hence, the molar mass of phosphorus is 1247.5 g mol–1.

Question. A student forgot to add the reaction mixture to the round bottomed flask at 27 °C but instead he/she placed the flask on the flame. After a lapse of time, he realized his mistake, and using a pyrometer he found the temperature of the flask was 477 °C. What fraction of air would have been expelled out?
Answer : Let the volume of the round bottomed flask be V.
Then, the volume of air inside the flask at 27° C is V.
Now,
V1 = V
T= 27°C = 300 K
V2 =?
T2 = 477° C = 750 K
According to Charles’s law,

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-11-Chemistry-Chapter-5-States-of-Matter-8

Therefore, volume of air expelled out = 2.5 V – V = 1.5 V
Hence, fraction of air expelled out
= 1.5 V/2.5 V = 3/5

Thus, 1.4 g of
N2 = 1.4/28 = 0.05mol
= 0.05 * 6.02 * 1023 number of molecules
= 3.01 * 1023 number of molecules
Now, 1 molecule of contains 14 electrons.
Therefore, 3.01 × 1023 molecules of N2 contains = 1.4 × 3.01 × 1023
= 4.214 × 1023 electrons

Question. How much time would it take to distribute one Avogadro number of wheat grains, if 1010 grains are distributed each second?

Thus, time required

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-11-Chemistry-Chapter-5-States-of-Matter-10

Hence, the time taken would be.1.909 x 106 years

Question. Calculate the total pressure in a mixture of 8 g of dioxygen and 4 g of dihydrogen confined in a vessel of 1 dm3 at 27°C. R = 0.083 bar dm3 K–1 mol–1.
Answer : Given,
Mass of dioxygen (O2) = 8 g
Thus, number of moles of O2
= 8/32 = 0.25 mole
Mass of dihydrogen (H2) = 4 g
Thus, number of moles of
H2 = 4/2 = 2 mole
Therefore, total number of moles in the mixture = 0.25 + 2 = 2.25 mole
Given,
V = 1 dm3
n = 2.25 mol
R = 0.083 bar dm3 K–1 mol–1
T = 27°C = 300 K
Total pressure (p) can be calculated as:
pV = nRT

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-11-Chemistry-Chapter-5-States-of-Matter-11

Hence, the total pressure of the mixture is 56.025 bar.

Question. In terms of Charles’ law explain why –273°C is the lowest possible temperature.
Answer : Charles’ law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

""NCERT-Solutions-Class-11-Chemistry-Chapter-5-States-of-Matter-18

It was found that for all gases (at any given pressure), the plots of volume vs. temperature (in °C) is a straight line. If this line is extended to zero volume, then it intersects the temperature-axis at – 273°C. In other words, the volume of any gas at –273°C is zero. This is because all gases get liquefied before reaching a temperature of – 273°C. Hence, it can be concluded that – 273°C is the lowest possible temperature.

Question. Critical temperature for carbon dioxide and methane are 31.1 °C and –81.9 °C respectively. Which of these has stronger intermolecular forces and why?
Answer : Higher is the critical temperature of a gas, easier is its liquefaction. This means that the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules of a gas are directly proportional to its critical temperature. Hence, intermolecular forces of attraction are stronger in the case of CO2.

Question. Explain the physical significance of Van der Waals parameters.
Answer : Physical significance of ‘a’:
‘a’ is a measure of the magnitude of intermolecular attractive forces within a gas.
Physical significance of ‘b’:
‘b’ is a measure of the volume of a gas molecule.
