Problem 18.41
For oxygen gas, the van der Waals equation of state achieves its best fit for a=0.14N⋅m4/mol2 and b=3.2×10−5m3/mol.
Part A
Determine the pressure in 1.7 mol of the gas at 9 ∘C if its volume is 0.50 L , calculated using the van der Waals equation.
Express your answer using two significant figures.
Part B
Determine the pressure in 1.7 mol of the gas at 9 ∘C if its volume is 0.50 L , calculated using the ideal gas law.
Express your answer using two significant figures.
