Chapter 1, Problem 1.35NP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of air needed to provide 350 kg of carbon dioxide at T=310 K and P = 1.00 atm needs to be determined, if the air is 0.0314 % CO₂ by volume.

Concept introduction:

An ideal gas follows the ideal gas law which states that:

  $PV=nRT$

Where P is pressure of gas

V- Volume occupied by the gas

n- Moles of the gas

R- Universal gas constant

T- Temperature

Also, number of moles can be calculated from mass and molar mass as follows:

  $n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.
