Q183

The compressibility factor of a gas is given by (where, V1 = actual volume of the gas V2 = gas volume predicted by ideal gas law)

A.
Answer
B.
C.
V1 - V2
D.
V1 × V2

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
The compressibility factor is given by   If at the same temperature and pressure if the same gas exists as ideal gas than we can write:
