- 110. Compare the pressures given by (a) the ideal gas law, (b) the van der Waals equation, and (c) the Redlic-Kwong equation for propane at 400 K and p = 10.62 mol dm³. The van der Waals parameters for propane are a = 9.3919 dm6 bar mol-2 and b = 0.090494 dm³ mol−1. The Redlich-Kwong parameters are A = 183.02 dm bar mol-2 and B = 0.062723 dm³ mol-1. The experimental value is 400 bar.arrow_forwardResearch in surface science is carried out using stainless steel ultra-high vacuum chambers with pressures as low as 10-12 torr. How many molecules are there in a 1.00 cm3 volume at this pressure and at a temperature of 300 K? For comparison, calculate the number of molecules in a 1.00 cm3 volume at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.
