Moldover et. al measured this value by determining the speed of sound in Argon.
Moldover et. al measured this value by determining the speed of sound in Argon. It's not b, but the temperature at which the second virial coefficient is zero has this value in its denominator. For an ideal gas, this quantity is equal to the difference in heat capacity at constant pressure minus the heat capacity at constant volume. The negative enthalpy change is divided by this quantity on the right side of the Van't Hoff equation. The exponential in the Arrhenius equation equals negative activation energy divided by the product of temperature and this. This quantity is multiplied by the molarity, temperature and van't Hoff factor to obtain osmotic pressure. For 10 points, name this quantity given by the product of Avogadro's number and Boltzmann's constant, equal to 8.314 Joules per Kelvin mole.
