Compressibility equation

The compressibility equation (Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \chi} ) can be derived from the density fluctuations of the grand canonical ensemble (Eq. 3.16 \cite{RPP_1965_28_0169}). For a homogeneous system:

Note that the compressibility equation, unlike the energy and pressure equations, is valid even when the inter-particle forces are not pairwise additive.
