This article is a 'stub' page, it has no, or next to no, content. It is here at the moment to help form part of the structure of SklogWiki. If you add sufficient material to this article then please remove the {{Stub-general}} template from this page.

Gas-liquid phase transitions are usually first-order phase transitions, except at critical points, where they become second-order; for supercritical points, the two phases become one. Between the two phases in coexistence a liquid-vapour interface of molecular size is formed.
