Problem 5 [10 points] Van Der Waals, suggested modelling the behaviour of a gas in a sealed container by accounting for the sizes of the molecules and attractive forces between them. You know that Volume V, measured in m and temperature T in K of water vapour in a container exhibit the relationship 5.5 (105 + V2)V = 8.3T. If the average velocity of molecules Vavg in m/s is given by Vavg = 3300T (A) Find Vavg as a function of V. (C) Use the above and the tangent line approximation to find the volume when (B) Find the average velocity of a water molecule at T = 528K and the Volume at T = 528K. Vavg in- creases by 1m/s.
