3. Using the truncated viral equation of state given below, nRT N°RTB(T) P = + V (a) Calculate the amount of work done as 500 mol of acetone (g) is compressed isothermally from 500 to 2.00 dm³ at 363 K with B(T) =B(363 K) =-874 cm³ mol. %3D (b) Next, calculate the same isothermal compression, however, in this case for 500 mol of neon (g) at 363 K whose second Virial coefficient is B(T) = B(363 K) = 12.1 cm³ mol-. (c) Finally, compare and contrast these two values of compressive work (weompression) . Speculate on why acetones result comes out the way that it does; i.e., what molecular or chemical rationale can explain its result.
