This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
The increase in temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules which decreases the intermolecular forces operating between its particles and hence, the viscosity of a liquid decreases. So, the viscosity of a liquid decreases if its temperature is increased.

Hexane is a nonpolar molecule which has london force between the molecules, which is a weak force.
Water and glycerine have O atoms which is an electronegative atom that forms H bonding between the molecules along with dipole-dipole interaction.
Glycerine has three O atoms, so it forms more H bonding and hence, has stronger intermolecular forces.
So the increasing order of intermolecular forces is Hexane < Water < Glycerin. Stronger the intermolecular forces, the greater is the viscosity, so the increasing order of their viscosities is:
Hexane < Water < Glycerin

The two phenomena that can be explained on the basis of surface tension are:
1. Spherical shape of rain droplets.
2. Capillary action due to which the liquid in capillary rises and falls.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Unit of 'P' = N m-2
Unit of 'a' = N m-2 X (m3)2 / (mol)2
= N-m4 mol-2
Unit of 'a' when pressure is in atm, and volume in dm3
Unit of 'P' = atm
Unit of 'a' = atm X (dm3)2 / (mol)2
= atm-dm6 mol-2

I.The increasing order of 'b' of the given gases is:
H2 < He < O2 < CO2
Volume of a gas is proportional to the size of the molecule.
II.The decreasing order of magnitude of 'a' of the given molecule is:
CH4 > O2 > H2
The Van there waals constant 'a' represents the magnitude of intermolecular attraction which increases with increase in the size of the electron cloud of the molecule. So the greater the size of a molecule, greater will be the electron cloud and hence greater will be the polarizability and more will be the magnitude of i

The CO2 gas cannot be liquified at the 32°C and 80 atm pressure as the given temperature and pressure are above critical temperature (Tc) and critical pressure (pc) which are 30.98°C and 73 atm respectively.

The assumption of kinetic theory of gases that there is no force of attraction between the molecules of a gas is applicable for real gases. The evidence for this is that the real gas can be liquified at high pressure and low temperature. This proves that there is force of attraction between the molecules of gas.

The two intermolecular forces that exist between HF molecules in liquid state are hydrogen bonding (as F is a highly electronegative atom) and dipole-dipole interaction (as HF is a polar molecule).
