Question

Calculate the number of degrees of freedom of molecules of Hydrogen in 1 cm3 of Hydrogen gas at NTP,

Moderate
Solution

Use   \large PV\, = \,nRT\, \Rightarrow \,n\, = \,\frac{{1.013 \times {{10}^5} \times {{10}^{ - 6}}}}{{8.3 \times 273}}

Total number of degrees of freedom = \large n \times {N_A} \times 5

\large = \,\frac{{1.013 \times {{10}^{ - 1}}}}{{8.3 \times 273}} \times 6.023 \times {10^{23}} \times 5\, = \,1.34 \times {10^{20}}
