ABSTRACT:

An effective pair potential for molecular fluid is expressed in the effective Lennard - Jones ( ELJ ) ( 12 - 6) potential form. We employ this theory to estimate the thermodynamic properties such as excess free energy A , residual internal energy U at zero pressure and critical point location of Carbon tetrachloride ( CCl4 ) .The agreement with experimental data is found to be fairly good .

KEYWORDS: Free energy; internal energy; critical point location
