Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The surface area of the catalyst and collision cross-section for nitrogen molecule has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Ideal gas is the most usually used form of the ideal gas equation, which describes the relationship among the four variables $\text{P, V, n, and T}\text{.}$  An ideal gas is a hypothetical sample of gas whose pressure-volume-temperature behaviour is predicted accurately by the ideal gas equation.

  $\text{PV = nRT}\text{.}$
