The purpose of this paper is the determination as accurately as possible of the equation of state for the simplest stable crystal, the cubic face-centred lattice, and the comparison of the result with those obtained by rough approximations(1) in order to get an estimate of the reliability of the latter if applied to more involved problems where exact calculations are impossible.
