According to the ideal gas law, a 1.051 mol sample of carbon dioxide gas in a 1.442 L container at 274.3 K should exert a pressure of 16.41 atm. What is the percent difference between the pressure calculated using the van der Waals' equation and the ideal pressure? For CO2 gas, a = 3.592 L2atm/mol2 and b = 4.267×10-2 L/mol. answer in %
