Chapter 7, Problem 7.27NP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The expression for the Boyle temperature in terms of a, b and R using Berthelot equation needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The Berthelot equation was named after the scientist Daniel Berthelot which is developed for the real gas equation to relate gas properties.

  ${\text{V}}_{\text{m}}\text{=}\left(\frac{\text{RT}}{\text{P}}\right)\text{+b-}\left(\frac{\text{a}}{{\text{RT}}^{\text{2}}}\right)$

Here,

V_m: molar volume of the gas.

R: Gas constant.

T: Temperature of the gas.

P: pressure of the gas.

a: Van der Waals gas constant.

b: Van der Waals gas constant.
