(c)
Interpretation:
Using the van der Waals constants given in Table 1.6, the molar volumes of mercury Hg is to be calculated at 25 °C and 1 bar pressure.
Concept introduction:
The ideal gas law considered the molecules of a gas as point particles with perfectly elastic collisions among them in nature. This works importantly well for gases at dilution and at low pressure in many experimental calculations. But the gas molecules are not performing as point masses, and there are situations where the properties of the gas molecules have measurable effect by experiments. Thus, a modification of the ideal gas equation was coined by Johannes D. van der Waals in 1873 to consider size of molecules and the interaction forces among them. It is generally denoted as the van der Waals equation of state.

At Boyle temperature, the second virial coefficient B is zero. Thus, for one mole of mercury the molar volume is, at one bar pressure
ῡ = RT/p
