View Solution

Van der Waals equation for a gas is stated as,
$p = \frac{nRT}{V - nb} - a\left( \frac{n}{V} \right)^2$
This equation reduces to the perfect gas equation,$p = \frac{nRT}{V}$,when:

$A$ certain quantity of real gas occupies a volume of $0.15 \ dm^3$ at $100 \ atm$ and $500 \ K$ when its compressibility factor is $1.07$. Its volume at $300 \ atm$ and $300 \ K$ (when its compressibility factor is $1.4$) is $........ \times 10^{-4} \ dm^3$ (Nearest integer).
