Question:

A 3.50 mole sample of N2 in a state defined by Ti = 250.K and Vi = 3.25 L undergoes an isothermal reversible expansion until Vf = 35.5 L. Calculate w assuming a. That the gas is described by the ideal gas law b. That the gas is described by the van der Waals equation of state. What is the percent error in using the ideal gas law instead of the van der Waals equation? The van der Waals parameters for N2 are listed in Table 7.4.
