Chapter 1, Problem 1C.2ST

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pressure of ammonia at which the molar volume $1.00d{m}^{3}mo{l}^{-1}$ at $\text{573 K}$ temperature has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Virial equation of state:

Virial equation of state is given by,

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{P = }\left(\frac{\text{RT}}{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}\right)\left(\text{1 + }\frac{\text{B}}{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}\right)\\ \text{Where,}\\ {\text{P}}_{}\text{-pressure}\\ \text{B-}\text{second virial coefficient}\\ \text{R-}\text{gas}\text{constant}\\ \text{T-}\text{temperature}\\ V_m\text{-molar}\text{volume}\end{array}$
