Dr. H. KAMERLINGH ONNES. Contributions to the knowledge of Van Der Waals-surface. I. Grafical treatment of the transverse plait. 1. According to Van Der Waals' theory it is possible by means of a sufficient number of well selected observations with mixtures of two known normal substances, to determine the constants (a12 and bi2 of Van Der Waals), which allow us to construct the general equation of state for the mixtures of these substances and especially to predict the phenomena of condensation by-surfaces derived from that equation of state. Kuenen, who among other things aimed at determining Van Der Waals' constants for mixtures of methyl chloride and carbon dioxide, has mentioned already in his thesis for the doctorate that calculations had been made in order to construct the psurfaces from the observations for mixtures of these substances. I have carried out and very nearly completed these calculations for the temperature at which Kuenen has made his most important observations, i. e. those on the retrograde...
