CO2 behaves likes a Van der Waals gas with constants a = 0.364 J.m3/mol2 and b = .0000429 m3/mol. If 2.7 moles of CO2 is put in a cubical tank (each side is 10cm) at 450K, what would be the pressure?

a) 85.4 atm

b) 69.4 atm                                    

c) neither of these.

 

What would be the force the CO2 gas exerts on each face of the cube?

a) 7.04*104 N

b) 8.66*104 N                                

c) neither of these.

 

What would be the internal pressure if CO2 behaved like an ideal gas (use IGL)?

a) 85.4 atm                                         

b) 82 atm                                       

c) 99.6 atm.
