ChemistryAvogadro Number Avogadro Number According to Avogadro’s hypothesis equal volumes of all gases under the same conditions or temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.…
ChemistryViscosity of Gasses Viscosity of Gasses When a mass of gas is caused to stream of flow in any given direction there is transfer of momentum from one…
ChemistryEffect of Pressure and Temperature on the Value of Mean Free Path The mean free path is the standard distance an element traverses before it experiences a clash. Pressure, temperature, and a few other factors affect solidity…
ChemistryMean Free Path Mean Free Path The mean free path is the distance that a molecule travels between collisions. Mean free path of a gas molecule is defined…
ChemistryDistribution of Velocities Distribution of Velocities A result of the chaotic movement of molecules in the gaseous state is that in addition to their collisions with the walls…
ChemistryAverage Velocity, r.m.s. Velocity and Most Probable Velocity: Equations Average velocity is defined as disarticulation (i.e., change in position) per unit time. This velocity is disarticulation divided by a time period of the disarticulation.…
