The density of a fluid is given by the empirical equation rho 70: 5 exp 8: 27 107 p where rho is density (lbm/ft3 ) and p is pressure (lbf/in2 ). (a) what are the units of 70: 5 and 8: 27 107?

The unit of 70.5 is lbm/ft^3

The unit of 8.27×10^7 is in^2/lbf

Explanation:

The unit of 70.5 has the same unit as density which is lbm/ft^3 because exponential is found of constant values (unitless values)

The unit of 8.27×10^7 (in^2/lbf) is the inverse of the unit of pressure P (lbf/in^2) because the units have to cancel out so a unitless value can be obtained. Exponential is found of figures with no unit

the clapeyron equation (also called the clausius-clapeyron equation) relates the slope of a reaction line on a phase diagram to fundamental thermodynamic properties.
