Question: 9 - 2 4 . Use the vapor pressure data given in Problem 9 - 7 and the density data given in Problem 9 1

9-24. Use the vapor pressure data given in Problem 9-7 and the density data given in Problem 913 to calculate vapbar(H) for methanol from the triple point (175.6K) to the critical point (512.6 K). Plot your result.
Data from 9-7:
9-7. The vapor pressure of methanol along the entire liquid-vapor coexistence curve can be expressed very accurately by the empirical equation
ln(Pbar)=-10.752849x+16.758207-3.603425x
+4.373232x2-2.381377x3+4.572199(1-x)1.70
where x=TTc, and Tc=512.60K. Use this formula to show that the normal boiling point of methanol is 337.67K.
Data from 9-13:
9-13. The densities of the coexisting liquid and vapor phases of methanol from the triple point to the critical point are accurately given by the empirical expressions
Ic-1=2.51709(1-x)0.350+2.466694(1-x)
-3.066818(1-x2)+1.325077(1-x3)
and
ln(gc)=-10.6196891-xx-2.556682(1-x)0.350
+3.881454(1-x)+4.795568(1-x)2
where c=8.40mol*L-1 and x=TTc, where Tc=512.60K. Use these expressions to plot 1 and g against temperature, as in Figure 9.7. Now plot l+g2 against T. Show that this line intersects the l and g curves at T=Tc.
 9-24. Use the vapor pressure data given in Problem 9-7 and
