JEE Main 2014 (06 Apr)
Question
If Z is the compressibility factor, then Van der Waal's equation at low pressure can be written as:
Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: B
Correct answer
B
Step-by-step explanation
Van der Waal's Equation of state for one mole
At low pressure, the characteristic constant (a) becomes significant whereas (b) becomes negligible. So (b) is ignored.
At low pressure for most gases z < 1.
