Post by: johnsmith12 on Mar 21, 2021 The van der Waals equation, nRT = [P + a(n/V)2] (V- nb), incorporates corrections to the ideal gas law in order to account for the properties of real gases. One of the corrections accounts for: ▸ the possibility of chemical reaction between molecules. ▸ the finite volume of molecules. ▸ the quantum behavior of molecules. ▸ the fact that average kinetic energy is inversely proportional to temperature. ▸ the possibility of phase changes when the temperature is decreased or the pressure is increased.
