A 1.00 L rigid cylinder contains one mole of neon gas at 25 °C. Calculate the pressure using (a) the ideal gas law, and (b) the van der Waals equation. (c) A much more accurate equation is the virial equation, B(T) + V pVm C(T) 1+ RT Vm where B(T) and C(T) are functions of temperature. For neon at 25°C, the values of B(T) and C(T) are 11.42 cm³.mol-1 and 221 cmé.mol2, respectively. Assuming the pressure calculated using the virial equation is the "true" value, determine the percent error by using ideal gas law and van der Waals equation.
