Here,
Answer to Problem 1P
Solution:
Using van der waals equation the modal volume
Van der waals equation is more appropriate to calculate the modal volume.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information: For ethyl alcohol
Consider Van der waals equation,
Therefore, the modal volume
Hence, differentiating,

The output of the function is,
Therefore, using van der waals equation the modal volume of the ethyl alcohol at
Using Ideal gas equation the modal volume,
Therefore, for ethyl alcohol at
Therefore, using Ideal gas equation the modal volume of the ethyl alcohol at
Interpretation:
As Ethyl alcohol is not an ideal gas hence Ideal gas equation is not appropriate to calculate the modal volume so the van deer waals equation should be imposed to calculate the modal volume.
