This similarity is not accidental; indeed, substituting ({{EquationNote|12}}) in the relations above for the thermodynamic parameters (Equations {{EquationNote|7}}, {{EquationNote|9}} and {{EquationNote|10}}) yields the corresponding virial expansions.<ref name="Barker:1976">{{Cite journal | last1 = Barker | first1 = J. | last2 = Henderson | first2 = D. | doi = 10.1103/RevModPhys.48.587 | title = What is "liquid"?
