The van der Walls constants for `CO_(2)` are `a= 3.59dm^(6)atm mol^(-2)` and `b= 0.0427 dm^(3) mol^(-1)`. Calculate the Boyle temperature `T_(B)` for `CO_(2)` gas.

Explanation

Boyle temperature, `T_(B)= (a)/(bR)= (3.59 dm^(6) atm mol^(-2))/((0.0427 dm^(3) mol^(-1))(0.8206 dm^(3) atm K^(-1) mol^(-1)))= 1024 K`.
