A simple assumption of an emergence in gas of small atomic clusters consisting of c particles each leads to a phase separation (first-order transition). It reveals itself by the emergence of a ``forbidden'' density range starting at a certain temperature. Defining this latter value as the critical temperature predicts the existence of an interval with the anomalous heat capacity behavior . The value c=13 suggested in the literature yields the heat capacity exponent α=0.077.
