P1C.12 The critical constants of a van der Waals gas can be found by setting the following derivatives equal to zero at the critical point: dp RT 2a "AP. (Vm-b)² " v 2RT m d°p dV (V-b) v 6a = 0 m m m Solve this system of equations and then use eqn 1C.5b to show that p, V, and T, are given by eqn 1C.6.
