Demonstrate the law of corresponding states by writing the van der waals equation in terms of the reduced variables. Calculate the compressibility factor for a van der waals gas at its critical point and compare the result with the values obtained for real gases at their points listed in Table 8.1. Calculate the value of (dU/dV)_T for a van der waals gas
