Question

for 2.1.4 part (a),how can i use the given equation to find out the P1 and P2?please explain the whole work to me,thank you so much!the correct answers are 226.49kPa and 309.88kPa

Determine the temperature of the boiling water bath on the Celsius scale, correct to plusminus 0.02 degree C. A constant volume gas thermometer contains 0.1 mol of argon in a volume of 1 times 10-3m3. An experimenter measures the pressure, P1, at the triple point of water and again at the steam point (100 degree C) obtaining P2. The equation of state for the gas is represented by the van der Waals equation rather better than by the ideal gas equation (2.1.1): (P + a(N/V)2) ((V/N) - b) = RT where a = 0.132 Nm4 mol-2 and b = 30.2 times 10-6m3 mol-1. Using the van der Waals equation, calculate the pressures P1 and P2 that the experimenter would have obtained. Use the pressures P1 and P2 obtained in (a) to find the

Explanation / Answer

Just substitue the given varable into that equation directly, not hard to calculate the final answer..
