Do you know the kinetic theory of ideal gases???




The kinetic theory of gases explains the macroscopic properties of gases like volume, pressure, and temperature, as well as transport properties such as viscositythermal conductivity and mass diffusivity.

 

The theory for ideal gases makes assumptions like ---

·        The gas consists of very small particles known as molecules. This smallness of their size is such that the total volume of the individual gas molecules added up is negligible compared to the volume of the smallest open ball containing all the molecules. This is equivalent to stating that the average distance separating the gas particles is large compared to their size.

                          

·        These particles have the same mass.

·        The number of molecules is so large that statistical treatment can be applied.

·        The rapidly moving particles constantly collide among themselves and with the walls of the container. All these collisions are perfectly elastic. This means the molecules are considered to be perfectly spherical in shape and elastic in nature.

Do you know about the Valence Bond Theory !!!

Do you k now a bout the Valence Bond Theory !!! Actully this theory describes a covalent bond as the overlap of half-filled atomic orbitals (each containing a single electron) that yield a pair of electrons shared between the two bonded atoms. We say that orbitals on two different atoms overlap when a portion of one orbital and a portion of a second orbital occupy the same region of space.   According to valence bond theory, a covalent bond results when two conditions are met: (1) an orbital on one atom overlaps an orbital on a second atom   (2) the single electrons in each orbital combine to form an electron pair.   The mutual attraction between this negatively charged electron pair and the two atoms’ positively charged nuclei serves to physically link the two atoms through a force we define as a covalent bond. The strength of a covalent bond depends on the extent of overlap of the orbitals involved. Orbitals that overlap extensively form bonds that are st...
