What would be the volume of 3.90 moles of an ideal gas, at STP? What is the pressure of this gas, if the temperature was increased from 0 degC to 56.9 degC as it stays in a constant volume container?
How many molecules are in a typical object, such as gas in a tire or water in a drink? We can use the ideal gas law to give us an idea of how large N typically is.Calculate the number of molecules in a cubic meter of gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP), which is defined to be 0ºC and atmospheric pressure.
A system consisting of 0.0538 moles of a diatomic ideal gas is taken from state A to state C along the path in the figure below.
A pressure-volume graph is plotted on a coordinate plane, where the horizontal axis is V (L), and the vertical axis is P (atm). The path consists of two line segments:
a segment from point A (2,0.300) to point B (2,0.800)
a segment from point B (2,0.800) to point C (8,0.500)
Arrows along the path are aligned such that their tails are closer to point A than are their tips.

- Calculus can be used to derive a relation between the critical constants and the van der Waals parameters of a gas. The critical point of a van der Waals gas occurs where the isotherm has a flat inflexion, which is where dp/dVm = 0 (zero slope) and d2p/dVm2 = 0 (zero curvature). (a) Derive expressionsfor these first and second derivatives by differentiating the van derWaals equation of state. Hence find expressions for the critical constants in terms of the van derWaals parameters. (b) Show that the value of the compression factor at the critical point is (3)/(8) .
