(a)
Interpretation:
The second virial coefficient B is zero at the Boyle temperature should be proved.
Concept Introduction:
By differentiating the virial equation with respect to pressure P and applying the limit pressure to zero virial coefficient B can become zero.
The virial equation has the following form:
The differentiation form of viral equation is as follows:
Here, Z is compressibility factor, P is pressure and B’, C’ and D’ are constants.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reduced Boyle temperature for simple fluids should be estimated.
Concept Introduction:
Use the generalised correlation for
