Interpretation:
For V as a state function:
Using above relation, it is to be shown that the isothermal compressibility and isobaric expansion coefficient are related by (
Concept Introduction :
The measure of change in relative volume of a
The measure of change in relative volume of a state of matter in response to temperature change at constant pressure is known as isobaric volumetric thermal expansion coefficient. It is expressed by the symbol “k” and its mathematical expression is:
Here,
k = isothermal compressibility
