About 8.0 x 10° tons of urea [(NH₂)₂CO] are used annually as a fertilizer. The urea is prepared at 200 °C under high-pressure conditions from carbon dioxide and ammonia (the products are urea and steam). Calculate the volume of ammonia (in liters) measured at 163 atm needed to prepare 2.94 tons of urea. (Assume ideal behavior.) Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
