Isothermal Compressibility

Show that when a liquid is compressed, the change in Gibbs energy is given by G= VP- 1/2V(P)2 if P1  = isothermal compressibility

Enzyme kinetics and ligand binding

A protein P is at a concentration of 10-4 M and a substance X that binds to the protein is added at a concentration of 10-5 M. After ten minutes it is found that there is, on the average, 1 X bound per 100 molecules of P. If [P] = 10-3 M and [X] = 10-4 M, after ten minutes there is 1 molecule of X bound per 10 molecules of P. ...continues

Estimate the fugacity of nitrogen gas at 50 bar and 298 K

Physical chemistry

I have attached the graphs. I don't think the first one is useful, but i needed to plot the data and find the heat of vaporization. Hence, the reason for the second graph. I know that the slope is equal to the heat of vaporization/RT but I don't think I am getting the right answer.
