    Peng-Robinson Eqn. of State, Thermo I

    Could you please give me a walk through on how to solve for volume of a substance using the Peng-Robinson Equation of State, given: 1. initial and final pressure 2. initial and final temperature (it is an isotherm) 3. it is frictionless (all work is reversible) P=...
