Question

According to the ideal gas law, a 0.9575 mol sample of methane gas in a 1.064 L container at 273.0 K should exert a pressure of 20.16 atm. What is the percent difference between the pressure calculated using the van der Waals' equation and the ideal pressure? For CH₄ gas, a = 2.253 L²atm/mol² and b = 4.278×10^-2 L/mol.

Definition Definition Law that is the combined form of Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Avogadro's Law. This law is obeyed by all ideal gas. Boyle's Law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume. Charles's Law states that volume is in direct relation to temperature. Avogadro's Law shows that volume is in direct relation to the number of moles in the gas. The mathematical equation for the ideal gas law equation has been formulated by taking all the equations into account: PV=nRT Where P = pressure of the ideal gas V = volume of the ideal gas n = amount of ideal gas measured in moles R = universal gas constant and its value is 8.314 J.K-1mol-1 T = temperature
