Thanks. I don't understand why it don't exist yet and I don't understand the proof completely. Just out of curiosity, how much math do you need to read to understand the proof?
It seems odd to me that we have no general solution to quintic equations yet.
Is it possible that it exist any general solutions to equations of the fifth degree (and higher) that just haven't been discovered yet?
Or are we certain that it doesn't exist?
Thanks a lot for your responses guys. Do anyone of you know some good site for more details about where and why this modell work (and for exampel why it differ more from reality at higher pressures) or some other model which give more accurate approximations?
I think that I start to understand...
I've looked alittle at the gas laws and I get the feeling that they are simplified. From what I can see they don't take intermolecular forces into account. Will the intermolecular forces simply disappear or just get so weak that we don't take them into account?
The gas law I'm thinking about...
I thought that it was the repulsion that cause electrons to rarely be found close to each other, are you sure that it's because of the Pauli exclusion principle?
If I got it right the valence electrons are the electrons in the orbitals with the highest energy level.
You may have seen that the orbitals exists in somewhat shells with different energy levels. The amount of electrons in the shells with the highest energy level is the number of valance...
