Consider a sample of oxygen at 300 K. Find the average time taken by a molecule to travel a distance equal to the diameter of the earth.
Use R=8.314 JK-1 mol-1
उत्तर
Here,
\[ V_{avg} = \frac{\sqrt{8RT}}{\sqrt{\pi M}} = \frac{\sqrt{8 \times 8 . 314 \times 300}}{\sqrt{3 . 14 \times 0 . 032}}\]
\[ = 441 . 44 \text { m/s }\]
We know
\[T = \frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { Speed }} = \frac{6400000 \times 2}{441 . 44}\]
\[ = \frac{28996.01 h}{3600}=8.054h=8h\]

Estimate the fraction of molecular volume to the actual volume occupied by oxygen gas at STP. Take the diameter of an oxygen molecule to be 3Å.
A gas in equilibrium has uniform density and pressure throughout its volume. This is strictly true only if there are no external influences. A gas column under gravity, for example, does not have the uniform density (and pressure). As you might expect, its density decreases with height. The precise dependence is given by the so-called law of atmospheres
n2 = n1 exp [-mg (h2 – h1)/ kBT]
Where n2, n1 refer to number density at heights h2 and h1 respectively. Use this relation to derive the equation for sedimentation equilibrium of a suspension in a liquid column:
n2 = n1 exp [-mg NA(ρ - P′) (h2 –h1)/ (ρRT)]
Where ρ is the density of the suspended particle, and ρ’ that of surrounding medium. [NA is Avogadro’s number, and R the universal gas constant.] [Hint: Use Archimedes principle to find the apparent weight of the suspended particle.]
