Solution:          Volume occupied by 1 mole of H2O(g) at 373 K =

=  = 30.62L

Volume of 1 mole of H2O(l)

= = 18.789 ml

% of volume occupied by liquid water

=

= 0.0613%

% of free volume

                        = 100 – 0.0613 = 99.9386%

Solution:          Relative humidity (RH) =

\ Partial pressure of H2O = RH ´ Vapour pressure of H2O

=  = 7 torr

=  = 0.0092 atm

Now PV = nRT

\

= 0.000382 mole

                        = 3.82 ´ 10–4 mole

or 1 + a =

on solving a = 0.137

or a = 13.7%

Problem 7:      A spherical balloon of 21 cm diameter and 4.851 L volume is to be filled with hydrogen at NTP from a cylinder containing the gas at 20 atm and 27°C the cylinder can hold 2.82 litre of water at N.T.P. what will be the number of balloons that can be filled up?

(A) 5                                                    (B) 10

(C) 15                                                  (D) 20

(C) 5.42Å                                             (D) 542Å

Solution:          b = 4Vm

(Vm is the volume occupied by one mole of gas)

or 24 = 4 ´ N0 ´ pr3

or r =

= 1.355 ´ 10–8 cm

\ d = 2r = 2 ´ 1.355 ´ 10–8 cm

                        = 2.71Å

Problem 10:    the density of phosphorus vapour at 310°C and 775 torr is 2.64g dm–3. What is the molecular formula of phosphorus?

(A) P                                                    (B) P2

(C) P4                                                  (D) P8

Solution:

or M =

Put d = 2.64gm dm–3

R= 0.0821 dm3 atm K–1 mol–1

P = atm

and T = 310 + 273 = 583K

We get M = 123.9g mol–1

No. of P atoms in a molecule

= = 3.99» 4

Thus the molecular formula of phosphorus = P4
