Question

A steel vessel of capacity 22.4 litres contains 66 grams of carbon dioxide at a temperature of $0^{o}C$.The total pressure of the gas is:

• A. 1.75 $atm$
• B. 2.00 $atm$
• C. 2.75 $atm$
• D. 1.5 $atm$

Answer 1

The correct option is D 1.5 $atm$

$P=\frac{WRT}{VM}$

$P=\frac{66\times 0.0821\times 273}{22.4\times 44}=\frac{3}{2}$
