If the pressure - volume relations for a real gas are measured at various temperatures, a set of
isotherms such as are shown in fig. 3.5 are obtained. At high temperatures the isotherms
look much like those of an ideal gas, while at low temperatures the curves have quite a
different appearance. The horizon portion of the low -temperatures curves is particular
striking. Consider a container of gas in a state described by point A in fig. Imagine one
wall of the container to be movable (piston); keeping the temperature at , we slowly push
in thus decreasing the volume . As the volume becomes smaller, the pressure rises slowly
along the curve until the volume v2 is reached . Reduction of the volume beyond v2
produces no change in pressure until v3 is reached. The small reduction in volume from
v3 to v4 produces a large increase in pressure from to p. This is a rather remarkable
sequence of remains a large increase in pressure in volume over a wide range in which
the pressure remains at the constant value .
