"TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF THE VAPOR OF O-TOLUIDINE, NEWTON- RAPHSON METHOD. Given an equation of the form y=f(x), the value of x may be calculated numerically. This program has two methods to solve this problem. A slower method called by the command S and the Newton-Raphson method called by the command !S (type ! then S). (Note: The Newton-raphson method may not always work and is very dependent on the choice of an initial guess!) *** Answer(s) to Problem(s) **** (c) Copyright PCSCC, Inc., 1993To use the Newton-Raphson method, Set T=500 and type !S. For the value of P, type 760 (enter). For the method of Herbold and Cote, type S, then type 760 (enter). For the search interval type 100 to 1000 (enter). The temperature should be 473. To find the other solution, set T=10000 first. Type any key to exit. ||Calculate the boiling point (pressure=760 torr) of O-toluidine if the empirical relation of P vs.T is log10(P)=23.8296-3480.3/T-5.081*log10(T).P in torr and T in Kelvin.
