7. A carbon dioxide gas cylinder contains 180cm3 of gas at a pressure of 6.3 x 106Pa.
a. Calculate the volume of the gas at atmospheric pressure, 1.0 x 105 Pa.
The cylinder valve is opened and the gas is collected at atmospheric pressure.
b. Explain why less gas would be collected than the answer to a.?
Carbon dioxide does not liquefy when put under pressure. Butane gas (used in camping gas cylinders) does liquefy.
c. Explain how the cylinders used to store carbon dioxide would be different from those used to store butane (camping gas).
