+    "In this notebook, it was demonstrated how to calculate the equilibrium pressure for a pure component as a function of its molar volume and temperature using a cubic equation of state. Isotherms were plotted in a PxV graphic using matplotlib library. After finishing this reading, you should be able to make simple uses of equations of state and create figures using tools from matplotlib, like pyplot. This will be an extremely needed skill in the following steps of this course, provided that we will create several graphic relating different thermodynamic properties. "
