WHAT DOES VAN DER WAALS EQUATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Van der Waals equation

The van der Waals equation is an equation of state for a fluid composed of particles that have a non-zero volume and a pairwise attractive inter-particle force. It was derived in 1873 by Johannes Diderik van der Waals, who received the Nobel prize in 1910 for "his work on the equation of state for gases and liquids". The equation is based on a modification of the ideal gas law and approximates the behavior of real fluids, taking into account the nonzero size of molecules and the attraction between them.

Definition of van der Waals equation in the English dictionary

The definition of van der Waals equation in the dictionary is an equation of state for a non-ideal gas that takes account of intermolecular forces and the volume occupied by the molecules of the gas.
