Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.49E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
2.49. For a gas that follows the van der Waals equation of state, the inversion temperature can be approximated as 2a/Rb. Using Table 1.6, calculate the inversion temperatures of He and H2 and compare them to their values of 40 K and 202 K, respectively. What are the implications of these inversion temperatures with regard to liquefaction of these two gases?
Concept introduction:
The phenomenon in the change of temperature produced when a gas is made into expands adiabatically from a region of high pressure to the region of low pressure is called Joul-Thomson effect. The mathematical derivation for the Joule –Thomson effect is called the Joule Thomson coefficient.

Use the virial equation of state to calculate the pressure exerted by 1.00 mol CH4, at 273 K confined to a volume of 1.00 cm3 , given the value of the second virial coefficient, B = -53.6 cm3 mol-1, at this temperature. You may assume that the expansion may be truncated after the second term.
Calculate the pressure exerted by 1.0 mol C2H6 behaving as a van der Waals gas when it is confined under the following conditions: (i) at 273.15 K in 22.414 dm3, (ii) at 1000 K in 100 cm3. Use the data in Table 1C.3 of the Resource section.
Is there a set of conditions (Vm,T) at which the compression factor Z of a van der Waals gas passes through a minimum?
