Abstract:A parametric expression for the Gibbs potential was found using the generalized Van Laar method for the free energy of a system. Since this expression is used in order to analyze the behavior of a system in the supercritical region, the well studied system of soft spheres was selected as a reference system. This allows one to find thermodynamic characteristics from known virial coefficients of the system and available information on the position of the critical point. The lines of the extremes for the second d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
