| The '''Benedict, Webb and Rubin equation of state''' is an empirical [[Equations of state | equation of state]], based on the [[Beattie-Bridgeman equation of state]], which has the following functional form (Eq. A10 of <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750658 Manson Benedict, George B. Webb, and Louis C. Rubin "An Empirical Equation for Thermodynamic Properties of Light Hydrocarbons and Their Mixtures I. Methane, Ethane, Propane and n-Butane", Journal of Chemical Physics '''8''' pp. 334-345 (1940)]</ref>):
