(a) What are the main applications of Avogadro's Law? (b) How does Avogadro's Law explain Gay-Lussac's Law of combining volumes?

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

(a) The applications of Avogadro's Law are: 1. It explains Gay-Lussac's law. 2. It predicts atomicity of gases. 3. It determines the molecular formula of gases. 4. It determines the relation between molecular mass and vapour density. 5. It gives the relationship between gram molecular mass and gram molar volume. (b) According to Avogadro's law under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, equal volumes of different gases have the same number of molecules. Since substances react in simple ratio by number of molecules, volumes of the gaseous reactants and products will also bear a simple ratio to one another. This is what Gay Lussac's Law says.
