Question

Calculate the pressure of 15 mol neon at $30^{\circ} C$ in a 12 litre container usinng the vander waals equation:

[ $a = 0.2107 a t m L^{2} m o l^{2}, b = 0.0171 L m o l^{- 1}$ ] (in atm)

Open in App

Solution

According to equation

$(P + \frac{a n^{2}}{V^{2}}) (V - n b) = n R T$

$(P + \frac{(15)^{2} \times 0.2107}{(12)^{2}}) (12 - 15 \times 0.0171) = 15 \times 0.0821 \times (273 + 30)$

$P = 31.4 \approx 31 a t m$
