Explanation / Answer

(1) Molecules are in constant, rapid and continous random motion.

The average kinetic energy of a substance is determined by the temperature.

The molecules of a gas are small size, no volume with no attraction between them.

(2) As we know the ideal gas equation,

PV=nRT .......................(1)

(a) Here Temperature is constant.

Given, P2 = P1/4 (As the pressure is reduced four times) ........................(2)

Here P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

So, we can write equation (1), as

P1V1 = P2V2 .....................(3)

Putting equation (2) in (3), we get

  P1V1 = (P1/4)V2

=> V1 = V2/4

=> V2 = 4V1

Hence the volume of the ideal gas is increased by a factor of four.   

(b) Here, all the factors are varying like pressure, temperature and volume. So, from the equation (1), we can write

  P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 ...................(4)

Given, P1 = 760 torr =101.325 kPa ~ 101 kPa T1 = 37o C = 37+273.15 = 310.15 K ~ 310 K

P2 = 202 kPa T2 = 155 K

Putting these values in (4), we get

  (101)V1/(310) = (202)V2/(155)  

V2/V1 = 155x101/310x202 = 1/4

V2 = V1/4

Hence, volume of the ideal gas is decreased by a factor of four.

(c) Given,

P1 = 2 atm =202.650 kPa ~ 202 kPa T1 = 305 K

P2 = 101 kPa T2 = 32o C = 32+273.15 = 305.15 K ~ 305 K

Putting in equation (4), we get

(202)V1/(305) = (101)V2/(305)  

V2/V1 = 305x202/305x101 = 2

V2 = 2V1

Hence the volume of the ideal gas is increased by a factor of two.

Short Answer:

An exothermic reaction is the one where enengy released from system to its surrounding.

An endothermic reaction is the one where enengy absorbed from surrounding to the system.
