The vapour density of a mixture containing NO 2​ and N 2​ O 4​ is 38.3 at 27 °C. Calculate the moles of NO2​ in 100 mole mixture.

Dobereiner’s law of traids:

It was first attempt towards classification. He arranged similar elements in a group of three elements called triad and the atomic mass of the middle elements of the traid is approximately the arithmetic mean of the other two.

For example : Ca (40), Sr (87.5) Ba (137)

At. wt. of Sr = (40+137)/2= 88.5

88.5 is nearly similar to 87.5 of atomic wt. of Sr

Such a group of elements is called Dobereiner’s triad.

Dobereiner could arrange only a few elements as triads and there are some such elements present in a triad, whose atomic weights are approximately equal, e.g.

Fe Co Ni

Ru Rh Pd

Therefore, this hypothesis was not acceptable for all elements.

Lother Meyer's Curve:

(1) The graphs plotting the atomic volumes against atomic weights are known as Lothar Mayer volume

curves.

(2) The alkali metals have highest atomic volumes.

(3) Alkaline earth metals (Be, Mg Ca, Sr, Ba, etc.) which are relatively a little less electropositive. Occupy

positions on the descending part of the curve.

(3) Halogens and the noble gases (except helium) occupy positions on the ascending part of the curve.

(4) Transition elements have very small volumes and therefore these are present at the bottoms of the curve.
