The density of water is $1000 \; kg \; m^{-3}$. The density of water vapour at $100 \; ^{\circ}C$ and $1 \; atm$ pressure is $0.6 \; kg \; m^{-3}$. The volume of a molecule multiplied by the total number gives what is called molecular volume. What is the average distance (in $\mathring{A}$) between atoms (interatomic distance) in water? (Radius of a water molecule $= 2 \; \mathring{A}$)

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $20$
  • C
    $40$
  • D
    $27$

Two boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box $A$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of nitrogen gas at temperature $T_o$,and box $B$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of helium gas at temperature $(7/3) T_o$. If they are brought into thermal contact such that both gases reach a final common temperature $T_f$,what is the final temperature $T_f$ in terms of $T_o$? (Neglect the heat capacity of the boxes.)

The left and right compartments of a thermally isolated container of length $L$ are separated by a thermally conducting,movable piston of area $A$. The left and right compartments are filled with $\frac{3}{2}$ and $1$ moles of an ideal gas,respectively. In the left compartment,the piston is attached by a spring with spring constant $k$ and natural length $\frac{2L}{5}$. In thermodynamic equilibrium,the piston is at a distance $\frac{L}{2}$ from the left and right edges of the container as shown in the figure. Under the above conditions,if the pressure in the right compartment is $P = \frac{kL}{A} \alpha$,then the value of $\alpha$ is:

According to the kinetic theory of gases,when two molecules of a gas collide with each other,then:
