Notes:
A Burnett type of apparatus was built for 12,000 lb./sq.in. pressure and temperatures of 25° to 100°C. Isothermal expansions were run on methane, ethylene, and four binary mixtures at 25°, 50°, and 75°C., and compressibility factors were derived from the pressure ratio observations.From the experimental data, second and third virial coefficients were derived by two techniques, that is, the slope-intercept and the multiple regressions curve-fit of the data by the density-series virial equation. A comparison of these virial coefficients with those from the different empirical equations of state indicates areas of needed improvements in these equations. Second virial cross coefficients were also obtained.
