Calculate the molar volume of ammonia gas at 273K and 1 bar using the van der Waals equation of state. (a) First, use the critical point data Tc = 406K and Pc = 113 bar to obtain the van der Waals parameters a and b. (b) Next use the following iterative algorithm to estimate the molar volume: (1) Re‐write the vdW EOS in the form Vm = b + RT/(P+a/Vm2), (2) Using a guess for Vm on right hand side...

The van der Waals equation of state is (P + a(n/V )^2)(V/n − b) = RT, where a and b are gas-specific constants. For Hydrogen gas, a = 2.45 × 10^-2P a · m^6 and b = 26.61 × 10^-6m^3/mol, while for an ideal gas a = b = 0. (a) Consider trying to measure the ideal gas constant in a lab from the relation R = P V/(nT), where P, V, n, and T are all measured parameters. However,...
