The maximum in the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution occurs when df(v)/dv = 0. Find, by differentiation, an expression for the most probable speed of molecules of molar mass M at a temperature T.
The cohesive energy density, U, is defined as U/V, where U is the mean potential energy of attraction within the sample and V its volume. Show that U = 1/2N2∫V(R)dτ where N is the number density of the molecules and V(R) is their attractive potential energy and where the integration ranges from d to infinity and over all angles. Go on to show that the cohesive energy density of a uniform distribution of molecules that interact by a van der Waals attraction of the form −C6/R6 is equal to −(2π/3)(NA2/d3M2)ρ2C6, where ρ is the mass density of the solid sample and M is the molar mass of the molecules.
Investigate the dependence of pV on V for real gases.
