Document Summary

That"s the scariest i could come for halloween This weekend, daylight saving time ends and we move our clocks one hour back. I get an hour of extra sleep, while you get an extra hour to study for the midterm on wednesday, nov 5! The closer a gas is to the liquid state the more it will deviate from the ideal gas law. Corrections to describe the behavior of gases are called equations rather than laws. These equations are good for limited ranges but within those ranges are better than the ideal gas law. Most corrections account for the finite volume of the molecules and for the attractive forces between the molecules. The most famous equation is the van der waals equation. an2. V2)(v nb) = nrt (p + an2. V2 adjusting measured p up to account for interactions larger a stronger attractions.
