where rho is the density of the liquid, dpdrho is the compressibility, mass is the molar mass, Navogadro is Avogadro's number, and kappa is Boltzmann's constant.
Set variable eta = (dp/drho) at constant T.
Since (dp/drho) at constant T = 1/(rho[rho^(-1)*(drho/dp)Tconst]),
> eta:=1/(rho*dpdrho);
> eta := 6912.450359*cm^3*atm/g;
> atm:=1.1033*10^6*g/cm/s^2; define atm in different units in order to simplify expression
