B.
RT dlnf
Answer
C.
R dlnf
D.
None of these

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
We know the property relation     for constant temperature
For an ideal gas

For a real gas also if we want to describe the relation in the same functional form we express it as       where fugacity, that means we buried the entire non ideality in this term fugacity. The term fugacity is also called as effective pressure.
