5 Questions around this concept.
Which of the following statements is correct?
(a) The unit of k in the expression $\mathrm{V}=\mathrm{kT}$ is $\mathrm{m}^3 \mathrm{k}^{-1}$.
(b) A gas is heated at constant pressure from $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. It expands to twice its initial volume.
(c) The volume occupied by 32 g of oxygen is greater than that occupied by 16 g of methane, both being at the same $T$ and p.
(d) All real gases can be liquefied below their critical temperature.
Gases possess characteristic critical temperature which depends upon the magnitude of intermolecular forces between the particles. Following are the critical temperatures of some gases.

The Gaseous State
Gases and their properties play an important role in our daily lives. Our atmosphere consists Of mixture Of gases like dioxygen, dinitrogen, carbon dioxide, water vapours etc. These gases shield us from harmful radiations. Life is supported by the dioxygen in the air which we breathe. Plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis.
There are in total eleven elements in the periodic table which exist as gases under normal conditions.
Composition of gases is always from non-metal eg. etc.
Following are the few physical properties of gaseous state :
(i) The volume and shape of gases is not fixed. These assume the volume and shape of the container.
(ii) The thermal energy of gases >> molecular attraction.
(iii) Gases have infinite expansibility and high compressibility.
(iv) Gases exert pressure equally in all directions
(v) Gases have much lower density than the solids and liquids due to negligible intermolecular forces.
vi) Gas mix evenly with other gases or their mixtures are homogeneous in composition.
Characteristics of Gas
There are certain parameters or measurable properties which are used to describe the characteristics of gases
