Critical temperatures of ammonia and carbondioxide are respectively 405.5 and 304.1K. Cooling from 450K, which gas can be liquify first? Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Ammonia gas can be liquified first, Because the critical temperature of ammonia will be reached first, Liquification of carbondioxide will require more cooling.

The essential conditions for liquefaction of gases were discovered by Andrews in 1869 as a result of his study of pressure-volume-temperature relationship for CO_(2) . It was found that above a certain temperature, it was impossible to liquefy a gas whatever the pressure was applied. The temperature below which the gas can be liquefied by the application of pressure alone is called critical temperature (Tc). The pressure required to liquefy a gas at this temperature is called the critical pressure (Pc). The volume occupied by one mole of the substance at the critical temperature and pressure is called critical volume. Critical constants are related with van der waals' constant as follows: V_( c) = 3b, P_( c) =a/(27b^(2)), T_( c) =(8a)/(27 Rb) The values of critical volumes of four gases A, B, C and D are 0.025L, 0.312L, 0.245L and 0.432L respectively.
