So I'm studying for a test this week, and I was reading a passage in the text that referenced:
Z = P*(Vbar)/(RT)
and that alpha is (1/T) or (1/Vbar)(dV/dT)p
I'm totally fine with these two parameters, but then the book instantly jumps to the conclusion that because of two things, for any gas, this equation will be true:
T*alpha = 1 + T(dlnZ/dT)p
Is there a way to actually find this equation through calculus yoga or is this something that the book is just saying because it is something that cannot easily be found?
EDIT: Nevermind, I was able to find it out after toying with it for 20 minutes.
