Question

‘Interparticle attraction between atoms gases is very week’.State five properties of gases which correlates as a consequence of the weak interparticle attraction between particles of gases


Open in App
Solution

i) Gases are highly compressible: Due to the least interparticle force of attraction particles are very far away from each other, therefore gases are highly compressible.

ii) Gases have the tendency to flow: Due to the least interparticle force of attraction, particles are very far away from each other and can move easily.

iii) Gases do not have fixed volume: Due to the least interparticle force of attraction particles are very far away from each other, therefore they can be compressed to a great extent.

iv) Gases are the least rigid, due to the least interparticle force of attraction, particles are very far away from each other and can move easily.

v) Gases diffuses easily, due to the least interparticle force of attraction, particles are very far away from each other ,Therefore the kinetic energy of the particle is very high hence they diffuses fast.
