The second virial coefficient for water at 300k is reported as -1126 cm^3 *mol^-1. calculate the compression factor for gaseous water under these conditions using the virial equation (truncated after the second virial coefficient).

adding or remove a gaseous reactant or product changes the concentrations. if the concentration of reactant or product is increased, the system will shift away from the side in which concentration was increased (i.e. if the concentration of reactants is increased, the system will shift toward the products. if more products are added, the system will shift to form more reactants). conversely, if the concentration of reactant or product is decreased, the system will shift toward the side in which concentration was decreased (i.e. if reactants are removed, the system will shift to form more reactants. if the concentration of products is decreased, the equilibrium will shift toward the products).

explanation:

in the analysis of systems that involve fluid flow, we frequently encounter the combination of properties u and pv.
