As we learnt in 

Critical Temperature -

that temperature upto which gas has to be cooled before gas can be converted into liquid by applying pressure.

-

 

 

 

I-    Slope of isotherm below critical point < 0.

      Slope of isotherm above critical point < 0.  

       Slope of isotherm at critical point = 0.     

       So slope of isotherm at critical point is maximum.

 

II-         T_{c}= \frac{8a}{27Rb}                                

            T_{c}\: \alpha \: a

         Larger value of TC It means less decreases in temperature is required to liquify the gas. Gas will liquify at higher temperature. So, easier'll be liquification.

III-     When gas is below critical temperature. It is 'liquid' so Vander Waal's equation of state is not valid.
