Van der Waals constants (data page)
The following table lists the van der Waals constants (from the van der Waals equation) for a number of common gases and volatile liquids.
Units:
- 1 J·m3/mol2 = 0.1 m6·Pa/mol2 = 10 L2·bar/mol2
- 1 L2atm/mol2 = 101 325 J·m3/kmol2 = 101 325 Pa·m6/kmol2
- 1 dm3/mol = 1 L/mol = 1 m3/kmol (where kmol is kilomoles = 1000 moles)
