Problem- Assume the ideal law gas constant, R, and the Kelvin scale, (273 + Temp in Celsius) had not been discovered. You know the ideal gas behavior obeys the following expression:
PV = K1 (K2+T)
Where: P is absolute pressure in kPa, V is the molar specific volume in cubic meters/gram-mole, T is temperature in Celsius, and K1 and K2 are constants to be found. You have noticed that Table B5, in the back of your text book has information on steam which you can use. Plot the appropriate data from Table 5 in a straight line and find the values of K1 in kJ/kgmoleC, and K2 in degrees using trend-line. How do the unknown values compare with known values? Why?
