According to Mendeleyev-Klapeyron’s equation
pV = nRT,
where p = 160 atm V = 12 R -constant 0.0821 & T = 298 in Kelvin
Using given data, we can determine the amount of Helium gas:
n = pV/RT = (160â™12)/(0,0821â™298) = 78,48 (mol)
For atmospheric pressure (1 atm) and the same amount we can calculate the volume of tank, using previous equation:
V = nRT/p = (78,48â™0,0821â™298)/1 = 1920 (liters)
V = 1920 liters
Thus Answer is 1920 liters
