1.

The ideal gas equation has been modified for real gases by applying pressure and volume corrections. 1. What is the corrected equation known as?2. Write the equation and explain the terms.

Answer»

1. The van der Waals’ equation. 

2. \(P+\Big(\frac{an^2}{V^2}\Big)\)(V — nb) = nRT 

where p – pressure, V – volume, n – no. of moles of the gas, a & b – van der Waals’ constants, R – universal gas constant and T – absolute temperature.
