When does the effect of molecular volume dominate over the effect of intermolecular force of attraction ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The compressibility factor of a real gas becomes `Z gt 1` when the effect of molecular volume dominates over the effect of intermolecular forces of attraction. Again, Z will be greater than one for a real gas if the pressure of the gas is very high. therefore, the effect of molecular volume becomes greater than the effect of intermolecular forces of attraction if the pressure of the gas is very high.

The term which has been included for intermolecular force of attraction in Van Der Waals equation is :

Let us consider 1 mol of gas. If It Is an ideal gas then (Poverset-V)/(RT) = 1 where , overset-V = molar volume of a gas For a non-ideal gas this quotient may not be equal to 1. It can also be less than or greater than 1. Therefore, the above quotient is defined as compressibility factor Z. Z = (Poverset-V)/(RT) = (Molar volume of real gas)/ (Molar volume of ideal gas) The compressibility factor of real gases can be written as Z = (Poverset-V)/(RT)=1+B/overset-V+C/overset-(v^2)+D/overset-(v^3)......(Viral equation) Where B,C,D are called virial coefficients and are dependent on the nature of the gas and temperature. B=(b-a/(RT)) .At Boyle’s temperature,second virial coefficient becomes zero. when Zgt1 repulsive forces are dominant and when Zlt1 the forces of attraction are dominant.
