Question

The given graph represent the variations of compressibility factor (Z)=pVnRT versus p, for three real gases A, Band C. Identify the only incorrect statement.

Moderate
Solution

From the graph, it is clear that the value of Z decreases with increase of pressure. At high pressure, when 'p' is large, V will be small and one cannot ignore ' b' in comparison to V.
