Statement $-1$: The compressibility factor at the critical point is the same for different gases following van der Waal's equation.
Statement $-2$: The compressibility factor is independent of pressure at the critical temperature.

At relatively high pressure,the van der Waals equation reduces to

When helium gas is allowed to expand into vacuum, a heating effect is observed. The reason for this is (assume $He$ as a non-ideal gas):
