Principle of corresponding states
editI moved "Principle of corresponding states" to this page.--Aushulz (talk) 23:56, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Incorrect title
editThe title of this page is "Theorem of corresponding states". However, it does not describe Lorentz' thorem of corresponding states, but rather van der Waals' principle of corresponding states. I'm not enough of an expert to know whether these are deeply related, but they are clearly quite different things. As far as I understand it, the theorem of corresponding states was part of Lorentz' work on relativity (pre-Einstein) and is a theorem regarding the Maxwell equations, whereas the principle of corresponding states seems to be something heuristic in thermodynamics, and clearly isn't a theorem in any sense at all! 131.112.112.6 (talk) 05:17, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
