Homework Statement



This is not really a homework question but just need to know how to re arrange the virial equation to solve for volume

Homework Equations



PV/RT = 1 + B/V +C/V2


The Attempt at a Solution



How can I re arrange this equation to solve for V?

First, try to multiply throughout by V^2, in order that V terms are in the numerators. That should give you a cubic equation in V.
