Show that effective volume of gas molecules is four

At low temperatures, the deviations are much more pronounced than at high temperatures. [Pg.71]

In order to explain the deviations of real gases from ideal behaviour vander Waals suggested that it is necessary to modify the kinetic theory of gases. The following two postulates of the kinetic theory, according to him, do not appear to hold good under all conditions. [Pg.71]

This postulate can be justified only under ordinary conditions of temperature and pressure. At low pressure or high temperature, the volume of the gas is comparably large and so the small volume occupied by the gas molecules can be neglected without producing any appreciable error. However, at high pressure or low temperature, the volume of the gas becomes small and now even the small volume occupied by the molecules cannot be neglected, as the molecules are incompressible. Hence, under conditions of high pressure and low temperature, the above postulate is not valid. [Pg.71]

it is necessary to apply suitable corrections to the ideal gas equation to make it applicable to real gases, vander Waals introduced two correction terms in the ideal gas equation to account for the errors introduced as a result of neglecting the volume of the molecules and intermolecular forces of attraction. [Pg.71]
