Abstract

The chapter delves into the critical properties of real gases, highlighting the differences between ideal and real gas behavior. It explores the critical point, where gases can no longer be liquefied, and discusses methods to determine critical properties using experimental data and empirical relationships. The law of corresponding states is introduced, showing how different gases exhibit similar properties when expressed in reduced units. Additionally, the chapter examines surface tension and its relationship to critical properties, providing insights into the behavior of gases at the molecular level. The inclusion of practical examples and data analysis techniques makes this chapter a valuable resource for understanding the intricacies of gas behavior.
