Undergrad Confused - Pressure in a canister?
hum, I don't think it matters if the gas is 'ideal' or not. The manufacturer quoting 16g of CO2 in a 20cm^3 canister stored at room temperature. I'm confused as to where the 60 Bar quote comes from. -

Good point, but I already did the conversion to m^3 in the calculation to give 444Bar. -

Undergrad Confused - Pressure in a canister?
A manufacturer quotes a standard CO2 canister contains 16g of CO2 at a volume of 20cm^3. So I need to calculate the pressure in the canister... Using ideal gas law P = nRT/V n = 0.364mol (16 of co2) R = 8.314 J/Kmol (universal gas constant) T = 294k (gas is at room temp 21 deg C) V = 20cm3...
