A bottle of 2 moles of an ideal diatomic gas experiences a temperature increase of 50.0K at constant volume. (a) Find the increase in internal energy if only translational and rotational motions are possible. (b) Find the increase in internal energy if translational, rotational, and vibrational motions are possible. (c) Which of the following kind of molecule is more difficult to increase temperature with the same amount of heat: (i) molecule that has many vibrational and rotational modes or (ii) molecule with only one of such modes?

Explanation:

a) For diatomic gas: Translational motion = 3 and rotational motion = 2

∴ Total (internal energy) = 3 + 2 = 5

b) Translational + Rotational + Vibrational = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6

c) Linear molecule  

i) Non linear molecule

ii)  Monatomic molecule

it is important to conserve water because there is very limited amount of freshwater here on earth and if we are not smart about how we use it we will only be runnning out of our supply faster than neccessarry.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
