Question: ( 5 0 points ) A closed cylindrical tank ( large vessel ) of known dimensions ( L = 1 m and d = 0

(50 points) A closed cylindrical tank (large vessel) of known dimensions (L=1m and d=0.15m) contains 5 Kg of colorless carbon monoxide (CO) gas at -50C. Evaluate the pressure exerted by the CO gas using (a) the ideal gas equation of state, (b) the generalized compressibility equation and (c) the Van der Waals equation. Calculate the average percent error on the pressure using the following equation
Error =(100%)Preal-PidenlPreal

1.9 The carbon monoxide (CO) gas at T=-50C deviates significantly from ideal gas behavior.
a. True
b. False
1.10 At a temperature of 223 K , carbon monoxide (CO) gas deviates from ideal gas behavior primarily due to effects of intermolecular forces and the finite volume of gas molecules.
a. True
b. False
