Question
Assume that the tank volume is 25.0 m3, the temperature 25.0°C and the gauge pressure 15.0 bar.
Calculate the mass of nitrogen in the tank using the ideal-gas equation of state.
Now assume that the tank volume is 35.0 m3, the temperature 25.0°C and the gauge pressure 9.00 bar.
Use conversion from standard conditions to estimate the mass of nitrogen in the tank.

- 0.07 kg of propane is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly at a constant pressure of 2.7 bar. Heat transfers slowly to the propane, and the volume of the propane increases from 0.029 m3 to 0.036 m3. The piston is free floating with negligible weight. Friction between the piston and cylinder is negligible. The propane may be assumed to be an ideal gas and experiences no significant kinetic and potential energy effects.
