Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a
compound commonly used in baked
goods, as a deodorizer in refrigerators,
and as an antacid, Commercial quantities
of baking soda are produced by mixing
soda ash dissolved in water with carbon
dioxide. Baking soda precipitates as a
solid from this method:
Na2CO3 + CO2 + H20 - 2 NaHCO3
How many grams of soda ash would be
needed to produce 1.00 kg of sodium
bicarbonate?

yes it is balanced

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
