QUESTION:

Liquid nitrogen has a density of 0.808 g/mL and boils at 77 K. Researchers often purchase liquid nitrogen in insulated 175 L tanks. The liquid vaporizes quickly to gaseous nitrogen (which has a density of 1.15 g/L at room temperature and atmospheric pressure) when the liquid is removed from the tank. Suppose that all 175 L of liquid nitrogen in a tank accidentally vaporized in a lab that measured 10.00 m x 10.00 m x 2.50 m . What maximum fraction of the air in the room could be displaced by the gaseous nitrogen?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 5

From the given,

Density of liquid nitrogen = 0.808 g/mL

Volume of gas = 175 L
