Why does C2H6 deviate more than CH4?

HomeArticles, FAQWhy does C2H6 deviate more than CH4?

option (2) C2H6 molecules have a larger, more polarizable electron cloud than CH4 molecules do. thus average kinetic energy depends on the temperature. at constant temperature, both C2H6 and CH4 have same average kinetic energy. the molar mass of C2H6 is greater than that of CH4.

Q. What happens to gases at high pressure?

High pressures: When gas molecules take up too much space At high pressures, the gas molecules get more crowded and the amount of empty space between the molecules is reduced. Initially the gas molecules move around to take up the entire volume of the container.

Q. Is CCl4 flammable?

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is a manufactured chemical. CCl4 is most often found in the air as a colorless gas. CCl4 is not flammable and does not dissolve very easily in water.

Q. Why is CH4 more ideal than CCl4?

Top Answer CH4 behaves more like an ideal gas than CCl4. Explanation: The intermolecular interaction in CCl4 is stronger than in the CH4 molecule due to the presence of more electronegative chlorine atom in CCl4. The gases with stronger intermolecular interaction deviate from ideal behaivour.

Q. Why does co2 deviate from ideal gas behavior?

Other gases, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia, have stronger intermolecular forces and consequently greater deviation from ideality. Nonideal behavior is quite pronounced for any gas at very high pressures or at temperatures just above the boiling point.

Q. What conditions cause a gas to deviate from ideal behavior?

The Effect of Intermolecular Forces. At high pressures and low temperatures, intermolecular forces between gas particles can cause significant deviation from ideal behavior.

Q. Can you use ideal gas law for CO2?

Some physical properties of CO2 are collected to Table 2. Ideal gas law is an equation describing the state of a hypothetical ideal gas. The ideal gas law relates the state of a certain amount of gas to its pressure, volume, and temperature according to the equation: Physical properties of CO2.

Q. What makes carbon dioxide obey ideal gas law?

High temperature and low pressure.

Q. What do you mean by compressibility factor?

The compressibility factor (Z) is a useful thermodynamic property for modifying the ideal gas law to account for behavior of real gases. It may be thought of as the ratio of the actual volume of a real gas to the volume predicted by the ideal gas at the same temperature and pressure as the actual volume.

Q. How is the high compressibility property of gas is useful to us?

High compressibility of gases is useful in following situations: On compressing this petroleum gas forms liquid. (2) Oxygen cylinders in the hospitals have compressed gas filled in it. (3) CNG is a natural gas methane which is compressed and used as a fuel in vehicles and at home.
