?A certain gas obeys the van der Waals equation with \(a=0.76 \mathrm{m}^{6}\mathrm{Pa}

Chapter 1, Problem E1C.9(b)

(choose chapter or problem)

A certain gas obeys the van der Waals equation with \(a=0.76 \mathrm{m}^{6}\mathrm{Pa} \mathrm{mol}^{-2}\). Its molar volume is found to be \(4.00 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{m}^{3} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}\) at 288 K and 4.0 MPa. From this information calculate the van der Waals constant b. What is the compression factor for this gas at the prevailing temperature and pressure?

Text Transcription:

a = 0.76 m^6 Pa mol^−2

4.00 × 10^–4 m3 mol^−1
