IDEAL GAS
Three assumption
→All collisions between atoms or molecules
themselves or between molecules and wall of container
are perfectly elastic

→No intermolecular attractive forces between the gas

molecules

→The volume that occupied by gas molecules are

negligible compared to volume of container
REAL GAS
COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR, Z
→To determine the behavior of ideal gases

Van der Waals’ Equation

Constant a: correction for the intermolecular forces

Constant b: correction for the volume of one mole of
the atoms or molecules involved
PAPAY'S EQUATION

Ppc = pseudocritical pressure of the gas mixture

Tpc = pseudocritical temperature of the gas mixture
Pci = critical pressure of component i in the gas mixture
Tci = critical temperature of component i in the gas mixture
yi = mole fraction of component i in the gas mixture
 PROBLEM STATEMENT
To determine...
• Which equation is more comparable to the data
obtained from Perry’s chemical engineers’
handbook 7th edition?

• What is the difference between the two models

(Papay’s equation and Van der Waals’ equation)
over a specific range of pressure at different
temperature?

• How the two models vary with temperature?

• Van der Waals equation has a
smaller percentage error
• more comparable

• Papay’s equation {negative deviation}

• Van der Waal’s shows {positive deviation
temperature with pressure} Conclusion
{ negative deviation at temperature with
pressure}

• both equation deviates lesser from

ideal gas behaviour at high
temperature with low pressure
