Interpretation:The pressure exerted by 2.25 moles of
Concept Introduction: The ideal gas equation is the equation which gives the relations between P,V, n and T of gases. It can be written as:
Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature. Usually gases do not follow ideal behavior under all conditions of pressure, temperature and volumes. The relation of P, V, n and T of real gases can be given by Vander Waals equation as follows:

- What is the van der Waals constant a for Ne in units of bar.cm6/mol2arrow_forwardUnder what conditions would the van der Waals constant b be negative? Do you think there are any gases for which this occurs?arrow_forwardOne of the chemical controversies of the nineteenth century concerned the element beryllium (Be). Berzelius originally claimed that beryllium was a trivalent element (forming Be3+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This resulted in a calculated atomic mass of 13.5 for beryllium. In formulating his periodic table, Mendeleev proposed that beryllium was divalent (forming Be2+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This assumption gives an atomic mass of 9.0. In 1894, A. Combes (Comptes Rendus 1894, p. 1221) reacted beryllium with the anion C5H7O2and measured the density of the gaseous product. Combess data for two different experiments are as follows: I II Mass 0.2022 g 0.2224 g Volume 22.6 cm3 26.0 cm3 Temperature 13C 17C Pressure 765.2 mm Hg 764.6 mm If beryllium is a divalent metal, the molecular formula of the product will be Be(C5H7O2)2; if it is trivalent, the formula will be Be(C5H7O2)3. Show how Combess data help to confirm that beryllium is a divalent metal.arrow_forward
