Chapter 7, Problem 7.25NP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of Vc should be calculated assuming methane is an ideal gas.

Concept Introduction :

For an ideal gas,

  VC=RTCPC

  VC - critical volumeR - universal gas constantTC - critical temperaturePC - critical pressure

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of Vc should be calculated assuming methane is a van der Waals gas.

Concept Introduction :

For a van der Waals gas,

  zC=PCVCRTC=38

  zC - critical compression factorVC - critical volumeR - universal gas constantTC - critical temperaturePC - critical pressure

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of Vc should be calculated assuming methane is a Redlich-Kwong gas.

Concept Introduction :

For a Redlich-Kwong gas,

  zC=PCVCRTC=0.333

Here,

  zC - critical compression factorVC - critical volumeR - universal gas constantTC - critical temperaturePC - critical pressure
