One term in a modification of this equation includes a dependency on the acentric factor; that is the Soave modification.
One term in a modification of this equation includes a dependency on the acentric factor; that is the Soave modification. The inversion temperature equals 27/4 times the critical temperature predicted by this equation. The reduced form of this equation implies the principle of corresponding states, which predicts that all fluids have a compressibility factor of 3/8 at the critical point. Maxwell introduced the equal area rule to correct for oscillatory behavior on P–V isotherms below the critical temperature in this equation. This equation contains terms symbolized a and b, which account for intermolecular forces and finite molecular size, respectively. For 10 points, name this equation of state, a modification of the ideal gas law named for a Dutch physicist.
