Assignment #3
1.) Look up the temperature-vapor pressure data for ammonia (NH3) over
the temperature range 283 K to 311K in 2K increments. Use this as
experimental data.
a.) Curve fit the data using the Clausius Clapeyron Equation, polynomial
fit, exponential power and log curve fits.
b.) Expand the curve fit data from part a. to 388K.
c.) Discuss briefly how each method performs as you expand the curve
fitting beyond the data range. (Look up ammonia data to 388 K to
evaluate)
