Q1

The document discusses the phase diagram and properties of ammonia (NH3). It provides the critical point of 132.4°C and 11.4 MPa and triple point of -77.6°C and 6.1 kPa for ammonia. It asks the reader to sketch the phase diagram, estimate the critical molar volume using ideal gas laws, and derive an expression for critical pressure using the van der Waals equation of state. It also asks to calculate the van der Waals constants a and b for ammonia.
