    Statistical Molecular Thermodynamics: Christopher J. Cramer

    The document discusses the Law of Corresponding States and how it relates gases at critical points. It introduces reduced quantities that allow gases to be compared at corresponding conditions. The law states that all gases have the same properties when compared at corresponding reduced states, independent of the van der Waals equation of state. It provides an example universal compressibility factor equation using the van der Waals model that demonstrates gases behave equivalently at corresponding reduced volumes and temperatures.

    there is an apparent correspondence between


    different real gases that is entirely independent of
    the van der Waals equation of state

    Again, at corresponding
    conditions (relative to

    behave equivalently.
