Answer

See answer below.

Work Step by Step

Relevant Maxwell relation: $\left(\dfrac{\partial s}{\partial P}\right)_T=-\left(\dfrac{\partial v}{\partial T}\right)_P$ From the given equation $P(v-b)=RT$ $v=\frac{RT}P + b$ $\left(\dfrac{\partial v}{\partial T}\right)_P=\dfrac RP$ $\left(\dfrac{\partial s}{\partial P}\right)_T=-\dfrac RP$
