Answer

$e=-19.05\%$

Work Step by Step

$P_{R}=\frac{P}{P_{cr}}=\frac{7MPa}{7.39MPa}=0.947$ $T_{R}=\frac{T}{T_{cr}}=\frac{380K}{304.2K}=1.250$ From Fig. A-15: $Z=0.84$ Knowing that: $\upsilon=Z\upsilon_{ideal}$ Then the error is: $e=\frac{\upsilon-\upsilon_{ideal}}{\upsilon}=1-\frac{1}{Z}=1-\frac{1}{0.84}=-0.1905=-19.05\%$
