This page looks like it holds some help to fill in the
Van der Waals equations with some real-world parameters:

(But I haven't checked its results.)

I guess you'd want to solve the equation for "n"
(the number of moles) so that by computing the ratio
to the "n" for surface ambient gas, you can derive
"how much there is in the tank to breathe"...

Yes, that would be odd.
