In an industrial process, nitrogen is heated to 500 K at a constant volume of 1.000 m

Question:

In an industrial process, nitrogen is heated to 500 K at a constant volume of 1.000 m3. The gas enters the container at 300 K and 100 atm. The mass of the gas is 92.4 kg. Use the van der Waals equation to determine the approximate pressure of the gas at its working temperature of 500 K. For nitrogen, a = 1.352 dm6 atm mol−2, b = 0.0387 dm3 mol−1.
