PROBLEM: The Soave equation adds an acentric factor to this statement, and the virial equation measures deviations from this law using a compressibility factor. This law derived by Benoit Clapeyron can account for density in its "dirty mop" form, and when A and B terms are added to account for the volume and interactions between particles, it is called van der Waals equation. Containing a namesake constant that is Boltzmann's constant times Avogadro's number is, for 10 points, what law usually stated as PV equals nRT
