Question

Problem 22DQ

The gas used in separating the two uranium isotopes 235U and 238U has the formula UF6. If you added heat at equal rates to a mole of UF6 gas and a mole of H2 gas, which one’s temperature would you expect to rise faster? Explain.

Solution

Solution 22DQ

Step 1:

According to Van der waal’s equation,

Where, P - pressure of the gas

           a - Van der waals constant

           V - Volume of the gas

           n - Number of moles of the gas

           b - Van der waals constant

           R - Universal gas constant

           T - temperature of the gas
