Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics - Truncated Virial Equation Example (Chapter 2, Problem 6)

In this example I use the truncated virial equation (Z=1+BP/(RT)) to model the PVT phase behavior of methane in a series of problems. A copy of my work is provided below: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1h8DGSKWXMM_Ki-S6rTTpFrvvETL848wT/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cXj0eQf4UNIzYlegEilRF9Ugq2Z9eSIp/view?usp=sharing Note that I also have a screen cast (https://youtu.be/gnns2d9hXOo) wherein I use the truncated virial equation of the form Z=1+B/V. Truncated after the second term, the numerical answer computed with both forms differs slightly. The form Z=1+BP/(RT) is the form used throughout the textbook adopted for this course. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/AndrewPaluch?sub_confirmation=1
