The behavior of PH₃(g)is most likely to approach ideal behavior at A)1.0 atm and 100°C. B)0.10 atm and -100°C. C)10 atm and 100°C. D)0.10 atm and 100°C. E)1.0 atm and 0°C.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

PH₃(g) is likely a nonpolar gas, as indicated by the chemical formula. Nonpolar gases approach ideal behavior at low pressures and high temperatures. Thus, the best choice is 0.10 atm and 100°C, as it has both a low pressure and a high temperature.
