A chemical engineer must calculate the maximum safe operating temperature of a high-pressure gas reaction vessel. The vessel is a stainless-steel cylinder that measures 43.0 cm wide and 51.6 cm high. The maximum safe pressure inside the vessel has been measured to be 4.30 MPa. For a certain reaction the vessel may contain up to 2.22 kg of dinitrogen monoxide gas. Calculate the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction. Write your answer in degrees Celsius. Round your answer to 3 significant digits. temperature: °C

Expert Solution
Step 1
Given,
The stainless steel cylindrical vessel has a height of 51.6 cm and 43.0 cm wide
Maximum safe pressure inside the vessel = 4.30 MPa
Weight of dinitrogen monoxide gas = 2.22 Kg
Required,
Maximum safe operating temperature for the reaction
First have to find out the volume of cylindrical vessel. The volume of vessel will be equals to the volume of dinitrogen monoxide gas. Now temperature can be calculated by using Ideal gas law equation.
