Answer: Derive an expression for the speed of sound based

Chapter 17, Problem 17128

(choose chapter or problem)

Derive an expression for the speed of sound based on van der Waals equation of state P 5 RT(v 2 b) 2 a/v 2 . Using this relation, determine the speed of sound in carbon dioxide at 808C and 320 kPa, and compare your result to that obtained by assuming ideal-gas behavior. The van der Waals constants for carbon dioxide are a 5 364.3 kPam6 /kmol2 and b 5 0.0427 m3 /kmol.
