GASEOUS STATE 2
VAN DER WAAL’S EQUATION
As we have read earlier, the ideal gas equation is given by
PV = nRT
This equation is an example of an equation that relates the pressure, volume and the thermodynamic temperature of an amount n of a gas. This equation is thus the equation of state for a gas. Since […]
THE GASEOUS STATE
What are states of matter?
The three states of matter can be distinguished by comparing the difference between the mean free path (the average distance between two collisions) of the constituent molecules and the diameter of a molecule. For a gas the […]
