Chapter 9, Problem 45QRT
At the critical point for carbon dioxide, the substance is very far from being an ideal gas. Prove this statement by calculating the density of an ideal gas in g/cm3 at the conditions of the critical point and comparing it with the experimental value. Compute the experimental value from the fact that a mole of CO2 at its critical point occupies 94 cm3.

A 5.50-mole sample of NH3 gas is kept in a 1.85-L container at 309 K. If the van der Waals equation is assumed to give the correct answer for the pressure of the gas, calculate the percent error made in using the ideal-gas equation to calculate the pressure. (Use a = 4.17 atm·L2·mol−2 and b = 0.0371 L·mol−1 for the van der Waals equation.)
A steel cylinder contains 5.00 moles graphite (pure carbon) and 5.00 moles O2. The mixture is ignited and all the graphite reacts. Combustion produces a mixture of CO gas and CO2 gas. After the cylinder has cooled to its original temperature, it is found that the pressure of the cylinder has increased by 25.0%. Calculate the mole fractions of CO, CO2, and O2 in the final gaseous mixture.
