(a) Using the ideal gas law and the definition of the coefficient of volume expansion , showthat β = 1/T for an ideal gas at constant pressure. (b) In what units must T be expressed? In those units, can you express β in units of (Cº)-1? (c) Estimate the value of β for an ideal gas at room temperature.
