Gas Ideality

Question 1

What are the ideal condition?

Answer 1

P is low, V is large, n is large they all cause no collisions
T is large (no stickiness)
Small and non polar they don’t stick

Question 2

What are the non ideal conditions?

Answer 2

Small volume
High pressure
Low temperature
-large in size or polar (increases effective collision)

Question 3

P+ “a” correction factor

Answer 3

Stickiness
(Attractive IMF between molecules)
Large gas and polar, the LARGER the “a”
Small and non polar gases, SMALL “a”

Question 4

(V+ “b” correction factor)

Answer 4

Size
Larger the molecule, LARGER “b”
Smaller the molecule, SMALLER “b”
