A chemical engineer must calculate the maximum safe operating temperature of a high-pressure gas reaction vessel. The vessel is a stainless-steel cylinder that measures wide and high. The maximum safe pressure inside the vessel has been measured to be .
For a certain reaction the vessel may contain up to of carbon monoxide gas. Calculate the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction. Write your answer in degrees Celsius. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

T = 643K = 643-273.15 = 369.85°C = 370°C = maximum safe operating temperature

Explanation:

The actual question has following data which the question given has missing

The vessel is a stainless-steel cylinder that measures wide 25.0 cm and 30.0 cm high.

The maximum safe pressure inside the vessel is 6.60 MPa.

The vessel may contain up to 0.800 kg of carbon monoxide gas.

Volume of cylinder = pi x r^2 x h  = 3.14 x (25/2)cm^2 x 30cm = 14725.78 cm^3 or 0.01472578 m^3

Now, using ideal gas law, PV = nRT

P = 6.60×10^6 Pa

V = 0.01472578 m^3

n= no. of moles = mas staken/ molar mass of CO2 = 800g/44g/mol = 18.18

moles

R =  8.314 J/mol.K

So, (6.60x10^6 ) x 0.01472578  = 18.18×8.314×T

T = 643 K = 643-273.15 = 369.85°C = 370°C = maximum safe operating temperature
