Question

This scientist theorized that fluids behave similarly at similar reduced temperatures and pressures based on his finding that the critical compressibility factor was three-eighths. (20[1])When studying an equation named for this scientist (0[1])with PV diagrams, (20[1])vertical or horizontal lines (20[1])connect points on isotherms in the Maxwell (0[1])construction. The distance of closest approach (20[1])between two hard (0[1])spheres is (20[1])this scientist's (20[1]0[1])(*) radius, (0[1])which he used (0[3])to derive a cubic equation (0[1])of state with the constants (10[1])a and b. (10[4])London (10[1])dispersion (10[2])forces (10[3])and dipole-dipole (10[1])interactions (10[3])are examples of intermolecular (10[2])forces named after this scientist. (10[1])For (10[1])10 points, a modification of the ideal gas law (10[1])was developed by what (10[1])Dutch physicist? (10[3])■END■ (10[3]0[2])
