The van der Waals constants a and b are 5.489 L2 atm mole-1 and 0.0638 L mole-1 for C2H6. (a) Calculate the pressure (atm) of a 10.0 mole sample of C2H6 in a 4.86 L flask at 300.0 K. (b) Compare this value if the pressure is calculated under ideal conditions. Does this show a positive or a negative deviation from ideal gas behavior?
