2. Liquid oxygen is used in the steel industry, in the chemical industry, in hospitals, as rocket fuel, and for wastewater treatment as well as many other applications. In a hospital a tank of 0.0284-m3 volume is filled with 3.500 kg of liquid O2 that vaporized at -25°C. Will the pressure in the tank exceed the safety limit of the tank (104 kPa)?
