This lecture covers the phenomenology of real gases and fluids, focusing on the Van der Waals gas equation and its implications. The instructor explains the interactions between molecules, the Lennard-Jones potential, and the corrections needed in the Van der Waals equation of state. The lecture also delves into the critical point, isotherms, and coefficients of Van der Waals for different types of gases.
