Faggets, I am calculating the thermal expansion coefficient for some liquid mixtures. Shit hits the fan when I compare the results obtained in terms of molar volumes and densities.
I think it could be due to some error propagation during the data transformation from densities to molar volumes that for some reason gives an error big enough that pretty much fucks up my calculation. Tips?

Have you tried reading Spivak?

It would help if you could summarize your calculations for us. Hard to know what the mistake is otherwise.

When Spivak writes a book on physical chemistry I'll be the first to read it.
