Question

Large amounts of nitrogen gas are used in the manufacture
of ammonia, principally for use in fertilizers. Suppose
120.00 kg of N2(g) is stored in a 1100.0-L metal cylinder
at 280 °C. (a) Calculate the pressure of the gas, assuming
ideal-gas behavior. (b) By using the data in Table 10.3,
calculate the pressure of the gas according to the van der
Waals equation. (c) Under the conditions of this problem,
which correction dominates, the one for finite volume of
gas molecules or the one for attractive interactions?
