   where a and b are van der Waals constants.
8. Describe the criteria for chemical reaction equilibria. Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction N₂ + 3 H₂ ? 2 NH₃ at 500 K assuming that the standard heat of reaction is constant in temp. range 298 K to 500 K. Standard heat of formation and standard free energy of formation of NH₃ at 298 K are – 46100 J/mol and –16500 J/mol respectively.
9. For a binary system of components (1) and (2), the vapour pressures are given by the Antoine's equations
   ln P^sat₁ = 13.818 - 2477.07 / (T-40.00)
