# Variables
T = 40    			#C
R = 0.0820 			#lit-atm deg**-1 mol**-1
v = 0.381 			#lit
b = 0.043 			#lit
a = 3.6 

# Calculations
P = (R*(273+T)/(v-b))-(a/v**2)

# Results
print  'Pressure  = %.1f atm'%(P)

Pressure  = 51.1 atm

In [2]:
# Variables
T = 0 	    		#C
R = 0.0820 			#lit-atm deg**-1 mol**-1
p = 400. 			#atm

# Calculations
V = R*(273+T)/p

# Results
print  'Volume of the ideal gas  = %.4f lit mol**-1'%(V)

Volume of the ideal gas  = 0.0560 lit mol**-1

Example 2.3 Page No : 29

In [1]:
# Variables
p = 400.  			#atm
T = 273 	    		#K
R = 0.0820 			#lit-atm deg**-1 mol**-1
k = 1.27

# Calculations
V = k*R*T/p

# Results
print  'Volume of the ideal gas  = %.3f lit mol**-1'%(V)

Volume of the ideal gas  = 0.071 lit mol**-1

Example 2.4 Page No : 29

In [4]:
# Variables
V = 0.381 			#lit
T = 313. 			#K
R = 0.0820 			#lit-atm deg**-1 mol**-1
pc = 72.9 			#atm

# Calculations
p = R*T/V
r = p/pc

# Results
print  'Pressure of carbon dioxide gas  = %.1f atm'%(p)
print  ' ratio  = %.3f '%(r)

Pressure of carbon dioxide gas  = 67.4 atm
 ratio  = 0.924

p1 = 404 			#atm
p2 = 390 			#atm

# Calculations
P = n1*p1+n2*p2

# Results
print  'Total Pressure  = %.f atm'%(P)

Total Pressure  = 394 atm
