The van der Waals constant ‘b’ for oxygen is 0.0318 L `mol^(-1)`. Calculate the diameter of the oxygen molecule.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the diameter of the oxygen molecule using the van der Waals constant 'b', we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between 'b' and volume The van der Waals constant 'b' is related to the volume occupied by one mole of gas. For a spherical molecule, the relationship is given by: \[ B = 4V \] where \( V \) is the volume per mole. ### Step 2: Calculate the volume per mole ...
