BIO ANESTHETIC GASES. One type of gas mixture used in anesthesiology is a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen (O2). which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use. Because these two gases don’t react chemically at or below 2000 psi, at typical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase, which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below −6°C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Then any gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; as the cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gas coming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O.
19.63 In a test of the effects of low temperatures on the gas mixture, a cylinder filled at 20.0°C to 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is cooled slowly and the pressure is monitored. What is the expected pressure at −5.00°C if the gas remains a homogeneous mixture? (a) 500 psi; (b) 1500 psi; (c) 1830 psi; (d) 1920 psi.
