Q: What is the molar volume of any ideal gas at STP? A: 22.4 L/mol (at 0°C, 1 atm).

Q: Formula for Boyle temperature? A: TBT_B = aRb\frac{a}{Rb}.

Q: Which molecular speed is the smallest? A: vmpv_{mp} (most probable speed) = 2RT/M\sqrt{2RT/M}.

Q: Condition under which Z = 1 for a real gas? A: At very low pressure (P → 0) or at the Boyle temperature over a wide pressure range.

Q: What does 'b' in van der Waals equation represent? A: Excluded volume per mole — correction for finite molecular size; VfreeV_{free} = V - nb.

Q: Critical temperature formula? A: TcT_c = 8a27Rb\frac{a}{27Rb}.

Q: What type of collision is assumed in KMT? A: Perfectly elastic (no energy loss; total kinetic energy conserved).

Q: Relation between average KE and temperature? A: KE = 32\frac{3}{2}RT per mole; depends only on T, not on molar mass.

Q: Effect of increasing temperature on liquid viscosity? A: Viscosity decreases (more KE overcomes intermolecular friction).

Q: Why does H2H_{2} always show Z > 1? A: Van der Waals 'a' is negligibly small → attraction negligible → only the excluded volume (b) correction matters → Z > 1 always.

Q: What is the Joule-Thomson effect? A: Cooling of a real gas on adiabatic expansion through a porous plug, below the inversion temperature.

Q: What are the three types of intermolecular forces in increasing order of strength? A: London < dipole-dipole < hydrogen bonding.
