Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...

where α is an exponent specific to the system (e.g. in the absence of a potential field, α = 3/2), z is exp(μ/k B T) where μ is the chemical potential, Li is the polylogarithm, ζ is the Riemann zeta function, and T c is the critical temperature at which a Bose–Einstein condensate begins to form.
The standard unit is the meter cubed per kilogram (m 3 /kg or m 3 ·kg −1). Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance. In this case, the unit is the centimeter cubed per gram (cm 3 /g or cm 3 ·g −1). To convert m 3 /kg to cm 3 /g, multiply by 1000; conversely ...
where P is the pressure, V is the volume, N is the number of gas molecules, k B is the Boltzmann constant (1.381×10 −23 J·K −1 in SI units) and T is the absolute temperature. These equations are exact only for an ideal gas, which neglects various intermolecular effects (see real gas). However, the ideal gas law is a good approximation for ...
Here because is a multivalued function, the integral must be divided into 3 parts corresponding to the 3 real roots of the vdW equation in the form, (,) (this can be visualized most easily by imagining Fig. 1 rotated ); the result is a special case of material equilibrium. [62]
The maximum work is thus regarded as the diminution of the free, or available, energy of the system (Gibbs free energy G at T = constant, P = constant or Helmholtz free energy F at T = constant, V = constant), whilst the heat given out is usually a measure of the diminution of the total energy of the system (internal energy).
T is the temperature, T TPW = 273.16 K by the definition of the kelvin at that time; A r (Ar) is the relative atomic mass of argon and M u = 10 −3 kg⋅mol −1 as defined at the time. However, following the 2019 revision of the SI, R now has an exact value defined in terms of other exactly defined physical constants.
