QS. Following table presents data of vapour pressure (P) versus temperature (T.) for benzene. Some design calculations requize these data to be correlated by a polynomial expression P = ag + ay Ty + ap Ty? + a5 Tie, where Te is the temperature in °C, Ty is the same in K and P is the pressure in mm of Hg.
