QuestionThermodynamics / response functions
The expression of isothermal compressibility factor is:
- (a) \(K_T = \frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial P}\right)_T\)
- (b) \(K_T = -\frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial P}\right)_T\)
- (c) \(K_T = \frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial T}\right)_P\)
- (d) \(K_T = -\frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial T}\right)_P\)
