Real Gas Behavior | The Basics of Fugacity

The video tutorial covers real gas behavior, focusing on fugacity and its importance when ideal gas laws fail. It explains the concept of fugacity, drawing parallels with solution chemistry and the use of activity. The tutorial details how to calculate fugacity using fugacity coefficients and discusses the implications of attractions and repulsions in gases. It also touches on the complex calculus involved in determining fugacity coefficients, although this is typically looked up in tables.
