States of Matter Gases and Liquids
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 Volume
Volume occupied by one mole of gas at critical temperature and pressure
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 […]
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 […]
