Question

The compressibility factor of nitrogen at 400 K and 800 atm is 2.00 and at 600 K and 200 atm it is 1.20. A certain mass of N2 occupies a volume of 1dm3 at 400 K and 800 atm. Volume occupied by same quantity of N2 gas at 600 K and 200 atm in litre is :

Open in App
Solution

z=PVnRT,

Given that same quantity of N2 gas is present , hence same number of moles.
n400K=n600K

n400K=PVZRT=1×8002×R×400 .....eq(1)

n600K=PVZRT=V×2001.2×R×600 .....eq(2)

Equating eq(1) and eq(2), we obtain
V = 3.6 L
