INDUSTRIAL AND ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY

2. The activity coefficients of any gas whose BeattieBridgeman constants are known may be calculated readily a t any desired temperature and pressure by means of Equation 9 with a satisfactory degree of accuracy up to pressures of 200-300 atmospheres and for temperatures at least as low as T, = 1.5. At higher temperatures satisfactory agreement between calculated and observed values can be obtained for the gases studied up to 500 atmospheres. 3. Satisfactory agreement between observed and calculated values of the activity coefficients of gases may be obtained a t temperatures considerably higher than those for which given Beattie-Bridgeman constants have been evaluated. 4. From the coefficients of Equation 9 for the various gases present in a n equilibrium, a n analytic expression for log,, K , as a function of P and T may be readily obtained which will be accurate in the same pressure range as the activity coefficients of the constituent gases. 5 . The outlined method of calculation of activity coefficients has the advantage over other methods suggested so far in that log y and log K , are obtained analytically as functions of P and T rather than of V and T , and a t any desired temperature, within the specified limitations, provided the Beattie-Bridgeman constants for the gases in question are known.
