SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the correction made for Van der Waals pressure in thermodynamic calculations. It clarifies that the pressure considered in Van der Waals equations is not ideal pressure but rather a modified version that accounts for intermolecular forces and molecular volume. The correction involves adjusting the pressure to reflect the real behavior of gases under non-ideal conditions, specifically using the Van der Waals equation of state.
