Viscosity

Internal resistance to flow offered by one layer of liquid to another layer is called Viscosity. Viscosity is very much similar to friction of solids but not same. The viscosity of thicker liquids like honey is […]

Surface Tension

Force acting perpendicular to the tangential line of surface per unit length

[lyte id=”1Z_JqcHjJss” \]

Points To Remember: Surface tension is a Scalar quantity It is temperature sensitive Unit of surface tension is N/m Dimension […]

Melting Point

Temperature at which solid converts into liquid at atmospheric pressure.

[lyte id=”ggXHDZFsQBc” \]

Points to Remember: If the compound melts over a very narrow range, it can usually be assumed that the compound is relatively […]

Boiling Point

Temperature at which vapour pressure of liquid is equal to atmospheric pressure.

[lyte id=”ahKVfILY1M0″ \]

Points to Remember: Point at which liquid changes to steam. Vander walls forces between molecules break because of which liquid […]

Critical Pressure

Minimum pressure required to liquify the gas at critical temperature.

[lyte id=”ZhP5npH9IcI” \]

Points to Remember:

The combination of critical temperature and critical pressure is called the critical point of a substance.

[…]

Critical Temperature

Temperature above which gas cannot be liquefied by pressure alone.

[lyte id=”OV0cDrEAE0k” \]

Points to Remember:

Gases can be converted to liquids by compressing the gas at a suitable temperature. The critical temperature of a […]

Ideal Gas

Gas which obeys gas laws and gas equation pV=nRT at all temperatures and pressures.

[lyte id=”otZvnZRQ65Y” \]

Base Concepts:

Ideal Gas Law

Points to Remember For a gas to be called as ideal gas it must […]

Graham’s Law of Diffusion

Rate of diffusion of gases is inversely proportional to the square root of their densities under similar conditions.

[lyte id=”JOOJ3MyHogE” \]

 

Points to Remember

Graham’s Law of diffusion can also be stated as the […]

Dalton’s Law

Pressure of mixture of non-reacting gases is equal to sum of their partial pressures under similar conditions.

[lyte id=”RqffPYOoxd8″ \]

Points to Remember

The partial pressure of each gas is equal to the mole fraction […]
