Linear Regreation Antoine

Linear regression analysis to determine Antoine equation constants
W.R. Wilcox, Clarkson University, s
Correlations of data have great utility for comparison with theory and for summarizing
the data in a more convenient form for engineering calculations. One parameter highly
useful for chemical engineers is the vapor pressure of a liquid versus temperature. For
pure liquids, the Antoine equation is often used to correlate vapor pressure data. This
equation is given by ln(p) = A - B/(T + C), where p is the vapor pressure, T is absolute
temperature, and A, B & C are constants to be determined. If linear regression analysis is
to be used to find these constants, we must put this equation into a linear form. This may
be done by multiplying the Antoine equation by (T + C)/T and rearranging to obtain
ln(p) = A + (AC - B)/T - C ln(p)/T. In this linear form, ln(p) is the dependent variable, 1/T and
ln(p)/T are the independent variables, A is the intercept, (AC - B) is the coefficient for 1/T
and -C is the coefficient for ln(p)/T. Use the Regression tool in Data Analysis to find A, B & C
for the carbon monoxide vapor pressure data via the tab below. Plot the experimental
and predicted values of p versus T. Convert to a log scale for p in order to show the
smaller values. Show the experimental values as points and the predicted values
as a curve. Change the scales to reduce wasted space on the graph.
As is customary, put the dependent variable on the vertical (y) axis
and the independent variable on the horizontal (x) axis.
